The First Week Back To School As Told By Tina Belcher

The First Week Back To School As Told By Tina Belcher

The first week back to school is always a little rough. Not to mention filled with multiple kinds of emotions before, during and after your classes. Some emotions are good, heck probably even great, while others are not so great. You know, more along the lines feeling like you are being tortured.

This week has allowed you to see which class are all right, exciting and plan awful. Every single one of us has a class that we absolutely dread going to. That class you wish you didn't have to take, but it's a requirement. That class that makes you want to slam your head against your table or get it stuck in a lamp.

With that one horrendous class, comes another one that balances it out. The class you enjoy going to. The class you like everyone in, including the professor. The class that puts the twinkle in your eyes or makes you feel some type of way.

Then there are the string of other classes that aren't too bad but at the same time aren't very enjoyable. Those classes that you are just there for, and typically a little late for because those are usually early morning classes. Even though you woke up early to be a little more productive that day.


There are also a thousand other things on your mind. Such as what new activities to get involved with. Maybe trying to go to the gym everyday and possibly eat super healthy, but during classes all you are thinking about are naps and tasty food. You know the easy to get burgers and cheesecake at the cheesecake bar. Those fatty foods just seem to call out your name during a boring class.


Or the fact that there is a certain, very attractive someone that you is in your "group" in class. So you try to play it cool, but it ends up to be completely obvious to anyone in class.


Overall the first week back isn't always the best week of your life, but it's a journey where you learn some things about yourself you might not have known before. That's what college is all about, right? At least the first week is over! Now just 16 more to go!

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.

Others have slaved away many nights under the fluorescent lights, and are slightly annoyed to find their study space being invaded by amateurs.
