The six-week-long winter break was exactly what I needed before returning to Ole Miss for the spring semester. Though it was extremely long, it was well needed and I felt great to give my body a rejuvenation to start the semester off!

Although I felt extremely well rested and ready to conquer this semester, it seems I underestimated what it would be like to be thrown back into my college lifestyle. It's completely overwhelming and sometimes I'm almost on the verge of a mental breakdown. Here are a few highlights of the semester so far and how I feel about them from one of my favorite shows!

1.Getting the flu after cleaning my room 10 times a day and washing my hands every 30 seconds

2. Realizing that my history class is going to be wayyyyy more work than expected

3. When I reunited with my friends after six whole weeks

4. Pretending I understand what my Statistics teacher says in class

5. When people tell me they don't have class until 11 and I start at 8 am every day

Don't get me wrong, it really has been a great few weeks back at school; however, there have definitely been some hiccups. Can someone come please complete this semester for me? Because at this point I can't but I'm optimistic so I'm hoping for the best.

Hopefully, the rest of the semester will only go uphill from here because it's been a rough couple weeks! Wash your hands and stay up to date on your schoolwork my friends, because you never know when the flu is going to hit you like a bus going 90 miles per hour!

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?
