Happy Anniversary SHOUTOUT

Now I know you aren't big on social media. You don't use Facebook or Instagram, and you refuse to form into society's brainwash BUT... I hope you find a way for this one. I believe you deserve the world's greatest shout out a girl can give.

Happy anniversary to the biggest part of my heart and my best friend. We've been through it all together. It all started a little over three years ago when you spotted the young and naive version of myself. Now I never believed in love at first sight, but boy you stole my heart real quick. It was a shocker and I refused to fall into the norm, but it happened. I knew these things called feelings were developing and there was no turning back now. I never thought in a million years a boy like you would love a girl like me, but it happened.

After that first date in NYC, I felt it was right. The first year was the best year of my life. I found a best friend and a companion who was ready to venture out the world with me. Leaving for school was never easy because I knew it meant being many miles away. Years later we still stand, and I could not be happier.

You're the mac to my cheese, the peanut to my jelly, the Kanye to my Kim, and the list could go on forever. You are the one person who is down to raid the movie theater for the newest movies of the week, the one to take random road trips for weird adventures, and the one to hold my hair back on the toilet. Now I know I don't ever make things easy for you. Being away I can be of annoyance because the distance kills. I may not say the right things all the time or do the best things, but let me tell you when I say I love you.

I couldn't be more grateful for a boy like you, someone who loves unconditionally. You sacrifice so much for me and I could not thank you enough. I want nothing but greatness for you, and to have success for the future. I want you to carry on the biggest smile that you always do. Keep being the rad dude that I fell in love with because your carefree living is what keeps me going. Cheers to three years with my best friend. I can't wait for the Europe adventures that await, and the many years to come.

Parks and Recreation excitedly gathered around a laptop at a table in an office setting.

The library. Club lib. The place every college student goes when they want to try and be a productive member of society. Who better to explain your experience than Parks and Rec?

1. When you've finally found the energy to leave your dorm room and walk into the lib like

Taylor Swift in orange dress playing a moss-covered piano on stage with bright lights.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

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.

Students walking on a sunny college campus with trees and buildings.

"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.

9 Reasons Why Friends Are Essential In College

College without friends is like peanut butter without jelly.

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.
