A few thank you's to everybody who got to where I am.  

Mom,

I can't begin to thank you enough for pushing me and always being on me about doing my work and keeping up my grades, it pays off.

The middle school "refocus" teacher,

I remember your class all to well. You had known my family. You were also obviously someone always on me about my grades, you would help and give advice. The snacks we're honestly probably the best part. Also there is always that one dumb boy that was held back. Reminded how I didn't want to end up. So, I got my grades up.

My best freind,

I don't know how I would've even got through school without you, thank you for always being there.

The principle,

When I was a freshmen I was failing a couple classes so you put me in EA (a bunch of easy classes to make up for credits) along with fellow freshmen (mostly friends so it was nice). Without that I probably would've been held back. It also gave me extra credits which was nice.

The drama,

You will not be missed. You caused me so much pain and anxiety. But It made me realize in what ways I had to change, who to not be around, I grew from it.

My family,

Always encouraging me to be and do my best.

The childhood friends,

We may have drifted apart, but the memories will always be remembered and thought back on. You were apart of my growing.

The parties,

Thank you for all the high school memories I will look back on and laugh. Also you matured me more too.

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.
