Coffee is life.

Do you find yourself craving coffee all the time? Will you sometimes go out of your way to get coffee? If you said yes to either of these questions, you may be a coffee-aholic. But don't worry, there isn't a cure, but that's a good thing. Why would you want to cure your coffee addiction? Coffee is life.

I am the worst offender when it comes to a coffee addiction. Okay, maybe not the worst but I definitely really like it. When you're in college or out in the "real world," sometimes you just need caffeine to keep you going. That's how it starts out at least. Eventually, you need coffee at all hours of the day because it's the greatest tasting thing ever in your mind.

1. There is no possible way you are able to start your day without a cup of coffee.

You can't function before you've had your first cup of coffee. The first thing you do every morning is walk over to your Keurig coffee pot and brew a cup.


2. You always say yes when the waiter or waitress asks if you want more coffee at a diner.

It's unlimited coffee. What more could you want?

3. You never say no when the waiter or waitress asks if you'll be having coffee or desert.

You couldn't think of a better way to end a great dinner. Regular or decaf, it doesn't matter to you. Coffee is coffee so there is always a yes after that question.

4. You can't drive anywhere further than thirty minutes without stopping at Dunkin' or Starbucks.

You never know if you might get tired while driving, and you definitely don't want to fall asleep. You are just taking precautionary measures. It's also just happens to be your driving tradition. It's a win, win.

5. You will always say yes when someone asks if you want to go on a coffee run.

Even if you already drove to Dunkin' that day, the second someone says they want to go you say "me too" and might even offer to drive.

6. You get very, very cranky if you haven't had any coffee.

Even if you woke up and had your morning coffee, if you miss your after class coffee or before studying coffee, everyone better watch out.

7. You get excited when you walk past a coffee shop while shopping.

There is no better feeling than spotting a coffee shop sign when you weren't expecting it. You have to stop whatever you are doing, and drag whoever you are shopping with, to go get a cup.

8. You have to take a snapchat with your coffee.

You are making sure that people know you went to Starbucks or Dunkin' that day. If you went somewhere fancy for coffee, that is a must-document event that may even end up on Instagram.

9. You always make sure to pay through the phone apps so you can get the rewards.

Sometimes a free coffee just tastes better.

10. There is such thing as too much as a great thing.

You automatically know you've hit your daily limit when you find yourself having to do laps around the library to burn off all the energy from caffeine.

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.
