To all Bradley Students, we are finally finish with finals and are out for the summer. And for the Class of 2017 who are graduating, I would just like to say congratulations and I wish you the best of luck on your journey into adulthood.

As summer break is here and the official start of summer won't be until next month, everyone summer plans are different from catching up on sleep, catching up on reading but this is like an English major or bookworm thing, hanging out with friends, getting a job or etc. My summer plans is basically sleep when I'm not on the job hunt or hanging out with friends, but I do have at least twenty books to read that I got from school so that's going to take a nice big chunk of my time. I also going to be learning Japanese again from my book so at least my summer will be productive until I find a job so I can earn some money. The best thing about the summer is that on July 20th, this girl's birthday will be happening and I will be turning 19 years old.

Another good thing about the summer is that I can finally go back to writing. I haven't been working on my stories that I write on Fanfiction.net, Wattpad or even stories that I started writing on the side because being an English major, it is hard to balance out my work for school and work for fun because there will be paths that will cross that I have to stop my work for fun. I miss writing for fun, but the only thing that help feel the void was journaling. Journaling is a nice thing that I do when I just want to clear my mind, just write anything down that is in my environment, or I just got an idea for a future story so in order for me to remember, I just write it down.

It feels weird to be out this early because all throughout my 12 years of school, I always be done with school either the last week of May or the first week of June. Now that I am out with in the first two weeks of May, I might actually feel like I am having a long summer, even though it's only 3 months I will be home for. We all can't have the summer like Phineas and Ferb did which I literally lost count of how many days were for summer, winter and I think they had some episodes that took place in Spring.

Anyway to close out with this, for all college students, I hope you guys have a fun and safe summer break as we see what happening in the world, too many things are happening that it could make summer fun for us or it can make our summer terrible. Enjoy your summer and make the most of it because when August comes, it's going to feel like the moving day will be creeping on us at a very fast pace

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?
