Chris

Our first interaction with Chris was one of the best. We had just met his roommate Bradley, about 15 minutes prior so we were still talking to him. Chris comes down the hall with all of his stuff and we all sat there quietly until I go "Are you Christopher?" and he gave me the look of pure terror before replying "yes… how did you know?" and the rest is history. He is a relatively quiet guy until he starts playing his game and starts absolutely screaming about the rats in the game. Chris is also a pretty funny guy and he complements Bradley's personality perfectly so I am glad they are roommates.

Anna


We met Anna just before Chris. When we met Anna she talked about how she wasn't going to have a roommate because Kate decided not to come so we all decided that Kate was the ghost that haunts the wall in between Anna and Bradley's room. Anna was also with us when Chris rolled in. While Allison, Bradley, Chris, and I were trying to loft Chris's bed, Anna just stood there and cheered us on, she's a great cheerleader if you were wondering. Anna and I joined Hall Council together and shes our buildings president so she's a pretty big deal around here.

Bradley 

Bradley and I moved in on the same day but I hadn't seen his face or spoken to him. The first time we met Bradley was through a note. Once Allison moved in, we decided to put a note under his door saying that we would love to meet him if he wanted to open his door later on to talk. Almost an hour passes with no reply so Allison and I were pretty sad. At that moment we see a note slip under the door and a knock. I jump out of bed and grab the note, he said he would be back after lunch and would love to talk to us when he got back! We were ecstatic! Once he got back from lunch we hear a knock at our door and there he was, our sweet, loveable Bradley. I never realized how incomplete my life was without this kid. Everyone needs a Bradley.

I'm so happy that these 3 got placed to be my neighbors. Y'all have made my life interesting so I hope I have done the same for y'all!

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.

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