Have you ever been on vacation and had a moment where you want to do anything but go to the beach? Well, here is a list of some fun things to do on vacation at the beach.

1. Go for a walk.

This may not seem fun, but it is very relaxing. It's nice to go out in the morning for a short walk to get you up and ready for the day!

2. Go shopping.

If you're at a beach that has a downtown or a boardwalk, I strongly suggest checking those areas out and spending a few hours doing "retail therapy".

3. Play mini golf.

This is best for night time, but if you want to beat the rush, then go over during the day and play a round of mini golf!

4. Eat all the ice cream.

Vacation is the perfect excuse to eat all the sweets you can possibly stomach.

5. Spend hours on end at the beach.

I know I said earlier that you need a day away from the beach, but let's be real here. Can you really spend a whole day away from it?

6. Watch the sunrise.

The sunrise is beautiful at a normal spot. on the beach, it's on a whole new level of beauty.

7. Watch the sunset.

The sunset over the bay is also a beautiful sight.

8. Do yoga on the beach.

I just did that yesterday morning and it was so relaxing. Plus, I got to look out onto the ocean while doing it. You can say it was a win-win situation.

9. Play board games.

This is a personal favorite. On rainy days, or even at night, sitting around a table playing classic board games, like Monopoly and Clue, is the best thing to do! Plus, it kills time, so you won't get bored!

10. Go to the water park.

This is perfect for when you don't want to go to the beach, but it's so hot out that you can fry an egg on the ground. Yes, it's a bit pricey, but in my opinion, it's totally worth it.

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 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?
