"Finally, someone whose life is more pathetic than mine." - Salem Saberhagen

We’re not sure where the rest of the semester went, but finals week is finally here...unfortunately. Students quickly regret those days of procrastinating those assignments that were due by the end of the semester to binge their favorite shows on Netflix.

Along the way, those midday naps quickly turn to late nights or even all-nighters. Salem Saberhagen, Sabrina Spellman’s witty kitty, talks his way through life that relates to our finals dilemmas on a personal level.

1. The deadline is actually earlier than what you remembered, and you haven’t even started that 20-page paper you’re supposed to write

2. When you look at the study guide and don’t remember learning any of this material

3. And then the mental breakdowns after the all-nighters kick in, and you feel everyone else has it easier than you

4. When the results from your exhaustion make you late for the only exam that's worth three-quarters of your grade

5. When that one classmate walks out of your hardest exam and says, "that was easy."

6. And, of course, the feeling you get when the professor decides to NOT grade on a curve

7. Then the crisis kicks in where you start questioning "why am I here?" and "what am I doing with my life?"

8. And then the dread of checking Blackboard to see your final grade, and just in case, you call your parents to warn them so they won't be mad

9. When you see your friends post on Facebook about their 4.0 semester

10. And when finally, all is well and back to normal, and summer is finally here

Even though this time of year is super stressful, everything winds down and ends up being alright in the end...unless your Salem, then the pains of being a cat never stop.

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?
