It's always a trial getting out of the friend zone, you see someone you really want to be with, and they see you as a brother. Then, you get those rare friendships where somehow, you got out of the friend zone, and you realize that's not what you want, so, how do you get back in the friend zone?

1. Her friendship may just be more valuable.

You may have struggled to get out of her friend zone, but now you realize she really is just more of a sister to you and you may just need her help finding a new squeeze.

2. Ask her help to get laid.

Nothing will make her realize more if you walk up to her with an imploring gaze and beg her to hook you up with her roommate, because let's face it, her roommate is just so hot and you need to hop out of that friend zone.

3. Call her "sis."

This will make it easy, but kind of painful. It's hard to be texting someone in a flirty manner and suddenly this weird family term gets dropped. She calls you "hot" and you reply saying, "oh thanks sis." And then the floodgates are closed.

4. Blow her off for a date.

After all this struggle that you/your girl may have faced, you realize that there's a date coming up and you're most likely gonna be dropping 50-70 bucks on that bill. Now on a college budget, you have no chance to make this bill, so your phone "dies," that'll show her.

5. Change your phone number.

THIS IS ONLY IF YOU'RE DESPERATE. The tip says it all, just change your number and you're free, how is she gonna text you now, or send those constant selfies of her head tilted slightly to the side that makes her look so cute?

6. Give her some cheesy break up lines.

You may/may not be dating, but you're close enough at this point that you realize what a horrible mistake you made. So smoothen it over with some classic lines..."It's not you, it's me, and sometimes I feel like you won't be able to handle the real me..." Then hold her hand, shed a tear, and you're free.

7. Show off your dark side.

Remember, in high school, when for some reason you really liked Linkin Park and "Papercut" was your favorite song? Well the next time you two are cuddling, blast the song and stick your tongue out to show her your new tongue piercing. She'll be out the door faster than ever.

8. Embrace your vices.

There was that one time freshman year where you tried drinking, but the goody side of you didn't enjoy it and you unfortunately blacked out. Now if this girl hates drinking and just wants to stay in with you on the weekends drinking YooHoo with curly straws, DON'T! Go out to Huskies, get plastered, and text her at 3 in the morning saying how much fun you had.

9. Ask for medical advice.

For some reason, your realize that you may need Viagra to get it up. Tell her that.

10. Be unattractive.

This is hard for some of you "hotties" out there. But hey, just be a slob for a couple days, and you'll be in the friend zone with everyone! <--- This is the perfect solution.

So this may be a joke to some, or helpful to others. And if this is offensive, remember it is from a place of love, just friendly love.

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 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?
