College Students Should Make Time To Do Better At The Gym Being #Flawless

So y'all, let's be real, it is hard juggling classes, work, and everything else in college. It has been hard for me recently to juggle going to the gym on my campus. But I am hoping to do more at my gym soon, certainly with Halloween and other holidays coming up.

What I usually will do every week though is tell myself when I will be heading to the gym. But how I could do this better is writing down what days I'm actually planning on going so that I can remember when I'm going and maybe even what time I am planning on going. I think we as college students need to write down what we are doing so that our brains remember the important activities we have planned for the day.

I will usually have songs already picked out before I go to the gym, but sometimes I do need to go with the flow and not plan out every single song I want to play while I'm working out. Now its okay for us as college students to have a genre in mind when we step foot in that gym, but we need to let the musical magic happen and hit shuffle.

Another thing I tend to do is not fill up on water as often as I should like I bring my original water bottle but I don't drink it all the way usually. So my plan is to remind myself to finish the one I bring close to the end of my workout and even fill up another one on my way out. As college students, we need to drink more water, so if we remind ourselves of this and some of the other things that I have mentioned that we will be #flawless at the gym.

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?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week. For some students, it's their first time in the library all semester, maybe ever. Others have slaved away many nights under the fluorescent lights, and are slightly annoyed to find their study space being invaded by amateurs. While these newbies wander aimlessly around the first floor, hopelessly trying to find a table, the OGs of the library are already on the third floor long tables deep into their studies. Here is a few signs that you may live in the library, whether you'd like to admit it or not.
