I am not sure why Lane decided she was going to go and check out the strange muddy footprints. If it had been me, I would have jumped out the window or simply called 911. To me, that would have been common sense. But hey, what is common to some may not be so common to others.

As she is heading to her parents room,the door swings open and she lets out a horrifying shriek. To her relief it is her dad. Lane's dad, Bill, was awoken to noises and found footprints by his bed. Equipped with his Smith and Wesson, Bill instructs his wife to call 911 as he proceeds to check out the house. That is when he ran into Lane. As he is checking Lane out to make sure she is okay, they heard the front door open and heavy foot steps run away with sirens blazing in the background.

As the cops search the house, they asked Bill, Lisa (Lane's mom), and Lane to check if anything was missing.Upon realization,all pictures in the living room with Lane have been taken. The officer's suggest that they pack up and leave the house. Was this someone playing a sick joke or was some crazy person after Lane? Nobody knew the answer.

As they arrive at an unknown location, Lane's parents call their other kids and ask them to write down anyone who may have a grudge against them or have shown peculiar interest in their sister. Lane was instructed to do the same. She went through her phone, email, and other social media accounts. The same name popped up in all of them. Lucky Aces.

In Lane's email account, she had several emails from Lucky Aces. Each one became more creepy and disturbing. Attached were pictures of her going to school, working, and hanging out with her friends. Lucky even sent messages to Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram. Who was the person?

In my opinion, Bill channeled Liam Nessons character from the Taken Trilogy. He quickly emailed Lucky Aces back. He simply said, "Your mistake was thinking that we are a meek and fragile family. You were in our house tonight and touched our things. The next move you make, better be a wise one because it may be your last one."

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.

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?
