Friendship, As Told By Leslie Knope

While in college you meet so many new people, but if you get lucky you find some true friends [cue Hannah Montana music]. But let's never forget those who also helped you survive the grueling years of high school. Okay, being honest they probably weren't that bad, but definitely were improved by the amazing friends that supported you through it all. And we all wish somehow they could come along with you on your college journey. So here's to all those out there who have helped you through life.

1. Most friendships don't start off with giving each other compliments, let's face it life is not typically that easy. Most of the time your future friend thinks you are quite odd at first.

That's okay, later on they will just embrace your weirdness and be cool with it.

2. But then they realize y'all are so much alike that you must be friends forever and ever.


3. By reaching this level of friendshipness, each must always support the other in all ways.

4. Which includes their worst

In which they regret so, so much.

5. And of course at their best

6. Sometimes even when they are moody.

Let's face it. Some days life isn't going great, but you love them anyways through it all.

7. Along with support, you also help them with boy troubles.

Because who else would they go to and analyze each and every text with?


8. And if they need a little encouragement, just remember...

9. Also sharing the same love for food.

10. The quirks that make them oh so unique.

And loving them so much more for their weirdness.

11. Because you know eventually what makes them oh so unique will rub off onto you.

But you're more than okay with it. You embrace it.

12. Sometimes you aren't sure what to think of them.

13. But you finally can come up with the perfect words to describe how they mean to you.


14. Especially when their special day of the year comes around. That's right. Their BIRTHDAY!! The one day a year you can celebrate them all day for being the amazing person they truly are with an abundance of love and gifts.


15. Rarely fights take place, but knowing even if you do get in a fight that it won't be for long.

Because even though it may seem like fighting, it is really just harshly loving them.

16. And no matter where life takes you they will always be there for you because besties for the resties.

So for all the friendships out there, remember no one knows you better than your best friend [TRUE FACT]. They know your favorite songs, foods, movies, places, etc. The list could go on forever just like your friendship will. They've been through it all with you and will continue to be there all your life. So cheers to all the besties out there, y'all rock!!

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.
