The struggles of having big, curly hair.

#CurlyHairProbs

Sometimes I wonder if Miley Cyrus wrote her song "Can’t Be Tamed" about my hair. It's unruly, super curly, and defies gravity. If you can relate to this on a spiritual level, then you probably can also relate to these #CurlyHairProbs.

  1. If there is a 1 percent chance of raining, you know there is a 0 percent chance of straightening you hair.
  2. To curl your hair you have to straighten it first.
  3. Humidity is your worst enemy.
  4. You know that you would have killed the 80s look.
  5. You have a fear of getting your hair cut because you are afraid they will cut off too much.
  6. Your identifier is “The one with big hair.”
  7. You regularly are breaking hair ties.
  8. If you didn’t break the hair tie, it is for sure stretched out and no longer resembles its original shape or form.
  9. Blow drying your hair will add about five inches of volume.
  10. If you’re wearing your hair natural, you can't brush it without it looking like you were electrocuted.
  11. You always run out of conditioner before shampoo.
  12. How your hair looks literally dictates your mood for the day.
  13. Bobby Pins aren’t an option for you.
  14. You know you can never have short hair because it would look like an afro.
  15. You envy girls that go to bed with wet hair and wake up looking ready for the day.
  16. You can't run your fingers through your hair without them getting stuck.
  17. Going out at night with straight hair and coming home with it curly.
  18. If you had a nickel for every time you hair dried in less than 30 minutes you would have zero nickles.
  19. You hate your hair.
  20. You love your hair.
  21. You wouldn’t ever trade your big, curly, messy, wild hair for anything.

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?
