Just gotta walk the walk.

5 Reasons Why I'm Obsessed With My Fitbit

I got my Fitbit this past June and it has been attached to my wrist ever since then. I love it so much and it's like my best-friend. So here's 5 reasons why I am obsessed with my Fitbit:

1) It is so cute and has a special meaning.

My Fitbit is an aqua blue which always tends to cheer me up on a gloomy day. It also means a lot to me since my boyfriend got it for my birthday and managed to pull off surprising me with it!

2) It talks to me.

My Fitbit goes off every hour if I haven't reached my step goal for that hour. It pops up little messages like, "Take me for a walk!", or "Wanna stroll?". Sometimes it gets a little sassy though and demands I take it for 250 steps.

3) It tells me how many steps I've taken and throws a party when I get to 10,000.

No joke. My Fitbit goes crazy when I reach 10,000 steps. It will vibrate a little tune and then have fireworks on the screen! I know that sounds cheesy but it's the little things in life that make me happy.

4) Counting Calories is way more fun!

My Fitbit keeps track of the calories that I have burned for the day. This is so much more motivating knowing I'm burning so many calories.

5) The Fitbit app is so organized.

I absolutely love the Fitbit app. It has a great layout that shows you how many calories, steps, miles, cups of water you've drank, as well as the badges you've earned. Yes! You get badges! It's like another little party but on my phone instead of my wrist!

Basically, I love my Fitbit and if you don't have one, you are definitely missing out. I encourage you to go get one right now. The battery lasts forever (around 5-6 days), and everything on it is extremely motivating. I feel naked if I don't have my Fitbit on! Go get yours now here!

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. While these newbies wander aimlessly around the first floor, hopelessly trying to find a table, the OGs of the library are already on the third floor long tables deep into their studies. Here is a few signs that you may live in the library, whether you'd like to admit it or not.
