1. Nails done hair done everything did / Oh you fancy huh

You're pretty much feeling yourself. New haircut, clothes, shoes, everything. New year, new you, right? You're ready for this semester to kick off.

2. They just spent like two or three weeks out the country /Them boys up to something they just not just bluffing

Forget two or three weeks, it feels like you've been gone forever and you're ready to get into some trouble with your crew.

3. I know way too many people here right now that I didn't know last year / Who the f*ck are y'all?

You've been so isolated at home that you forgot you actually have a lot of friends at IUP. Yet when you go out you still manage to see a million people you've never seen. How this is possible after so many semesters at IUP I’ll never know.

4. No new friends

Your squad is solid.

5. I got the drink in me goin' back to back

SYLLABUS WEEK!

6. If I ain't the greatest then I'm headed for it

Syllabus week dies and once the semester starts to kick in you slowly realize how much work you have to do, but you’re ready to go and put the work in. You feel like after you’ve had a break full of rest you can put your full effort in. This is about to be your best semester yet, you hope.

7. Everything's adding up, you've been through hell and back

You know it’s going to be a rough semester trying to accomplish all of your goals.

8. Drinking every night because we drink to my accomplishments

That’s not to say some good won’t come out of your hard work this semester and you plan to celebrate your successes. Every. Last. One.

9. I was runnin' through the 6 with my woes

And through the ups and the downs you’re glad to be back with your woes to make it through it all.

10. So just hold on we're going home

We’ll be back soon enough.

11. Man what a time to be alive

I love you, IUP.

Parks and Recreation excitedly gathered around a laptop at a table in an office setting.

The library. Club lib. The place every college student goes when they want to try and be a productive member of society. Who better to explain your experience than Parks and Rec?

Taylor Swift in orange dress playing a moss-covered piano on stage with bright lights.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

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.

Students walking on a sunny college campus with trees and buildings.

"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.
