Dear Netflix, Thank You

A thank you letter to the greatest love of my life.

Dear Netflix, Thank You

My Dearest Netflix,

We have been in a relationship for about three years now. I remember when I first started using you free of charge my freshmen year of college, when life was easy. Soon my parents would invest in our relationship and we would keep up this thing we had going monthly. You have been there for my best days and my worst. I owe you the world, yet you ask for nothing in return. That is one of the things I love so much about you. I wish I could thank you for everything you have taught me and for all the times you were there for me, but that would take as long as it would to watch all the seasons of "Grey’s Anatomy." I will try my best to thank you for everything you have done for me over the past couple years.

Thank you for:

  1. Always being there no matter what hour of the day.
  2. No commercials that would interrupt my intimate moments.
  3. Teaching me all medical terms possible. I think I can save a life now.
  4. Being there when I don’t want to do homework.
  5. Providing entertainment on a rainy day.
  6. Being so helpful and asking if I want to watch the next episode.
  7. Teaching me how to cook meth.
  8. Also teaching me that I should not do meth or sell it.
  9. Being adventurous.
  10. Automatically answering for me when I have 15 seconds of uncertainty if I should watch the next episode.
  11. Loving me and my friends.
  12. Being thrilling!
  13. Showing me what prison is like.
  14. Also showing me how to successfully break out of prison.
  15. Being such a cheap date.
  16. Teaching me what to do if zombies ever attacked.
  17. Not asking for anything in return.
  18. Showing me all different kinds of love.
  19. Valuing family and children.
  20. Being romantic.
  21. Providing me friends when my real friends aren’t there.
  22. Showing me what politicians really do.
  23. Teaching me how to get away with murder.
  24. And how to dispose of the body (not that I will never need to).
  25. Allowing multiple people to use one account so I can continue to live off my parents.
  26. Teaching me how to survive if I get lost on an island.
  27. Staying up all night with me.
  28. Being an advocate for saving whales from captivity.
  29. Avoiding people with me.
  30. Showing me the art of making sushi.
  31. Documenting other people’s lives and showing me them.
  32. Listening to knowledge from Ted with me.
  33. Always being down for a wine night.
  34. Being mysterious.
  35. Constantly being up to date.
  36. Teaching me what to do in a scandal.
  37. Making me laugh.
  38. Countless breakfast, lunch, and dinner dates.
  39. Alerting me on all the latest trends.
  40. For all the suggestions.

I look forward to many more memories with you.

Love,

Your Biggest Fan

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.
