The only back to school essentials I need are my headphones and sunglasses

Putting on a little bit of makeup for the first day so you don't scare your classmates

Even though for the rest of the year they will see your pimples and dark circles

Arriving to class an hour early because of nerves and you didn't walk your schedule

You try to stay positive but you want to go back in time and fix this mistake

You get that amazing professor who only goes over the syllabus on the first day

Praise

Or you get the professor that actually teaches you on the first day

Honestly, how dare they

Eating anywhere on campus is a horror

I swear this many people don't go to school here

TBH there are just too many people all over campus

Y'all are cramping my STYLE

That realization that you have to get from one side of campus to the other in less than 10 minutes

Yeah, the lady who told me you can get anywhere on the University of Alabama's campus in less than 10 minutes, was a liar.

Pulling a freshman move when you're an upperclassman

It's so hard to escape the total freshmen move

You decided the first day of class was a great time to break in your brand-new shoes

Break in those Chaco's WAY before school starts

You get the actual estimate on how much those text books will cost you

So, you better make sure you get your money back when you resale them

You've gotten one person's phone number in your class

They are now your life support.

You have attended the "weed out" class

& yes it did make you want to change your major completely

You already want to skip class

I should've skipped mine, if I'm honest

All in all, you love your school and you've been waiting for this day

It's still syllabus week, I can be naïve about how great school is

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.
