To go out or not to go out this Friday night...

We've all been there - you've been saying since Tuesday after French that this weekend is the weekend. You're finally going to break out those new heels and actually put on eyeliner on and make this Friday night be one for the memory books! That is, of course, until Girls Night Out turned into...Girls Night In.

Pregaming the pregame

You've been talking up this night pretty much all week. There's a list of songs to play next to your calc notes and you've already picked out the perfect outfit in your mind, then changed it 10 times before returning back to the original outfit.

Coming home after a long day

No matter if you worked ten hours or ten minutes, you've made it! You are home, the bra is coming off, and the fun is about to start!

Waiting patiently for your roommates to come home/your friends to come over

Although you're day's finished, that doesn't necessarily equate that your girls are also free and able to get this party started. So you clean your apartment, pluck your eyebrows, make some tea, watch some Netflix, pretty much anything to pass the time before your people arrive.

People have arrived and it's time to eat

FINALLY everyone is in the same room and it's time to get this party started...and no party can get truly started without getting some food down first.

Talking about going out but make no real effort actually get ready to go out

You'll start getting your makeup on once this episode of the Bachelor is over, or once you finish this bag of chips, or really at the end of whatever task is currently at hand, which is clearly more interesting than getting your thighs in that pair of skinny jeans.

Looking at the clock and realize, it's game time...and you're just not ready

You don't know when 4:30 turned into 10:30 but somewhere in between tacos and hearing about that guy in your roommates accounting class asking that freshman out via Twitter, time truly got away from you and you're starting to ponder if you even really want to go out.

Breaking out the wine because, well, if you're going out you may as well have one drink first.

Because one glass of vino never hurt anyone...

Getting into a really deep philosophical conversation about life its meaning and your role in it

You can't really identity how this conversation started but all you know is that you can't really stop talking about what it all really means, like really really means.

You start giving each other 'the look'

Better known as, 'are you thinking about how good yoga pants would feel right now also' look.

Weighing the options

Going out...not going out...going out...not going out

Changing into your PJs, putting your hair in a messy bun, getting comfy on the couch and getting ready for your girls night in

Because sitting at home with the girls watching a movie starring Ryan Gosling's abs and talking about life is much better than attempting to put on heels and eyeliner anyways!

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.

Here is a few signs that you may live in the library, whether you'd like to admit it or not.
