A Dog's Donut

Cricket's Adventures Part 2

A Dog's Donut
Sarah Baker

It was a typical Sunday evening. My girl parent had been talking on the phone for an hour and I had to pee. I had laid on the floor in front of her for the whole hour.

I had to pee.

Then both of my owners started talking to each other about French fries.

You know what they did next?!

They left. AND I HAD TO PEE!

I yelled at them as they left. I yelled at them out the window. I even yelled at them until they drove away just to slather on the guilt as much as possible.

“I have at least 2,000 doggie minutes to destroy something...what shall it be?”

I put my nose to work. Good ole’ trusty nose always helping me with my mischief. Suddenly, I smelled something great. Something sweet. Something my owner hadn’t finished…

I leapt the the couch. I peaked over the edge onto the desk.

I had located the glorious smell.

“Oh my puppy lord.” I thought to myself. “It is a real live human treat.”

I pulled the bag down. I placed it on the couch cushion. The perfect snacking spot.

Seconds passed...and the human treat was gone.

“Delicious. Why do humans get such good food?”

I proceeded to the comfort of under the human bed. Nothing had happened. That was my story. I would appear at the sound of the door and we would celebrate together and all would be well.

My humans came home. They greeted me. I am so excited they are back.

“I love you I love you I love you I love you” I panted. I jumped to display my love.

Then I heard an exclamation…

“My donut!! He ate my donut?!?”

I was caught.

To be continued…

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.
