What am I supposed to say when I'm all choked up and you're okay?

It’s very hard not run into you. Meeting you once was enough. But I knew this wouldn’t be the last time. I know you see and feel me hurting but there's not much you can do. Heartbreak you make me feel like I’m on a rollercoaster. I can’t breathe at one point and get angry that I decided to get on it in the first place.

Once I’m done crying and screaming I lose my breath because physically nothing can come back out. I’m speechless from the entire ride. You held my heart and would squeeze it until I couldn’t take it anymore.

You sting. You suffocate. You hurt so much both physically and emotionally. I hate that you make me feel empty for so long. I hate that you make me shut out all my friends and anything social in my life.

I hate that you make me starve because nothing seems worth it anymore. I hate that you make me feel dead inside. Although I still had blood pumping through my veins I wasn’t living anymore with you in my life. I hate that you will go on hurting other people. I hate that I never thought this would happen, but it happened.

But I do love you. I love that you made me experience this feeling because it will prepare me for the future. I love that you make me realize that this is not the end of my life. Most importantly I love that you made me grow and understand who you truly are so I can help others heal from you. I love that I met you sooner rather than later, because later it would have hurt even worse. I love that when I got over you I found better coping and better friends. I love that I will get over you. I can’t stop you from seeing other people even though I wish I could but I will love and hate those memories we share.

You were there for the death of a loved one, the end of friendship, the end of a relationship and the end of the truth. Thank you.

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.
