Happy "No Shave November"

Happy "No Shave November"

For most, November means cooler temperatures, colored leaves, football and turkey. For others, it means facial hair.

“No Shave November” is a non-profit organization targeted toward men that is devoted to raising cancer awareness. The idea is that money normally spent on personal grooming (waxing, trimming, salon visits, etc.) can be donated to the American Cancer Society. Men that participate are encouraged to embrace their natural growing hair: something cancer patients often lose.

The no shaving trend is becoming more popular every year, and men of all ages can be found participating. Of course, not all guys may be able to pull off the whole beard thing, but there are definitely some out there that happen to look really great with facial hair.   


Here are some celebrities that make ladies everywhere look forward to this shave-less month: 


1. Zac Efron 

Gone are the clean-shaven High School Musical days. No one is complaining.     

2. Ryan Reynolds 

Girls everywhere continue to have a love/hate relationship with Blake Lively. November does not help. 

 3. Jake Gyllenhaal 

Already mysterious, Gyllenhaal takes on an even edgier look when facial hair is added.      

4. Ryan Gosling 

No one can resist a scruffy Notebook-reminiscent version of Gosling. If you're still a bird, I definitely am too.

5. Leonardo DiCaprio 

While his beard may be the least tame out of the bunch, facial hair or not, Leo always makes the cut.          

So the next time you complain to your boyfriend that he desperately needs to shave, think of the cause behind the beard… and the eye candy it brings with it. Happy “No Shave November,” ladies.

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.
