Dear Future Husband,

First thing's first, our relationship will revolve around God. We will pray together and go to church together. I want you to love God more than you love me and I want us to be good Godly examples for our children.

You don't have to shower me with gifts or take me on expensive dates to show me you love me. We can stay in and watch movies all night, I'll be perfectly happy. We can dance around the kitchen in our pajamas and sing out of tune to old songs and laugh with each other. Moments like that are worth more than any dinner date or gift.

Be honest with me. I'm not asking for all your passwords or to look through your phone, but I want you to be honest and not keep anything from me and I'll do the same. I don't want it too feel like we have to keep secrets from each other.

If we fight, please take a deep breath and calm down and we'll talk about it. Don't yell at me and I won't yell at you. We can work things out like adults.

Enjoy the little moments. Act goofy with me at 2 am in Walmart. Sing Disney songs and dance like no one is watching. Let's have fun. Just because we're adults doesn't mean we have to act like that 24/7, we're allowed to goof off every now and then.

Dear future husband,

Just now that I'm already praying for you. I'm already asking God to send me a man that will love me unconditionally but that loves Him even more. I'm praying for you to have more happy days than sad ones. I'm praying for you and your future. I'm praying for you.

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.

It's easier than you think.

"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.
