Thank You College Best Friends
Erica Smay

Thank you best friends. You are truly incredible. I think we agree that fate brought us to the same college. We met on day one and are about to start year four together. We share passions; we share stories. You have been there through thick and thin. We have laughed. We have cried. There are no other people I’d want by my side. You understand me in ways that I never thought anyone could. You know everything about my family and I know all about yours. The memories I have made with you have been unforgettable.

What I love is how honest you are with me. You help me pick out outfits. If I’m overreacting, you explain to me how ridiculous I’m being. If I’m in panic mode, you calm me down. If I don’t know what to say, you find the words and say it for me. You’re my go to’s any day of the week. I’m not sure I’d be finishing up year four of college if I didn’t have you by my side. I was blessed with down-to-earth, crazy, loving, and inspiring best friends. You push me to be better every day. If someone hurts one of us, they’ve certainly hurt both of us. We are a team.

I know that our friendship will not stop the day that we graduate. We’re stuck with each other for life. If we ever have a disagreement, we talk it through. I find that pretty amazing because it is never easy, but always turns out better in the end. I love looking back at every late night. The ones that we spent in hotel rooms. The late nights out on the town. All of the inside jokes (I'm going to go with tomato face) and remember whens. Halloweens, birthdays, and other holidays. Knowing I'd get to be reunited with you from a week off, made the day after Christmas practices bearable. I even enjoy thinking of the early mornings, because none of us enjoyed them. No makeup, bruises, sweat, and tears. The verge of passing out, trying to finish that last suicide. Best friends and teammates, there is no better combo. I’m glad we stood side by side and have shared three wonderful years of our lives together.

Where will life go from here?

Talking about that last year, the final round that we are absolutely sure we will be together. It is scary. It is exciting. I can not wait to see where life takes all of us. The little memories will live forever. But until then, let’s make the most of it. The year of our lives. Those things we have always dreamed of doing, let's do them. I never thought I would find friends as wonderful as you. Since I did, this article is dedicated to you. Here’s to the past, the present, and the future. Thank you best friends.

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.
