How To Not Be A Crazy Girl

To the girl who doesn’t understand why she’s being called crazy,

Nobody is overreacting. You’re Coo Coo for Cocoa puffs.

Have you ever met a girl and thought: wow, God left a screw loose in that one. Well, I have.

Nowadays, it’s impossible to tell a female that she’s off her rocker without being shamed for sexism. The second that a man says that a woman is certifiably whacko, he is blamed for her lunacy. There must have been something wrong with the man. He was probably rude and inconsiderate which triggered the woman’s harsh response. His behaviors were unacceptable. He needs to apologize.

I am going to stand up for all of the men out there and say that it’s okay to call a girl crazy if she is, in fact, loony.

Ladies, listen up. Here are the 10 ways to not be psycho.

1. If a guy does not respond to your text, he is NOT interested.

Don’t come up with excuses like “oh, he probably has a really busy week.” If a person has 90 seconds to sit on a toilet, then they have enough time to reply to your text in a day.


2. Stop dwelling.

There are plenty of fish in the sea. Once you move on from your sub-par Prince Charming, I guarantee you’ll be able to find another.

3. Do NOT memorize a person’s schedule.

It is not only very concerning that you know that this gentleman has club basketball practice on Tuesdays from 5 to 6 PM right after Bio Lecture, but also very, very bizarre.

4. Do not plan out your every move with the intent to “accidentally” bump into somebody.


Going out of your way to casually walk past the lecture hall that you know he just had class in in the hopes of bumping into him screams “RESTRAINING ORDER.”

5. Do not invite yourself to things.


If he did not invite you to dinner with his friends, then – this one is mind-boggling—you were not invited. Don’t take it upon yourself to invite yourself.

6. Take a damn hint.

When someone says “I’m tired,” they don’t want you to bring over some coffee, they want you to leave them alone.

7. Stop reading into everything.


Sometimes, a side-hug is just that, a side-hug.

8. There is a certain limit to Social Media stalking.


The fact that you know that this guy went to the Cayman Islands with his family in the 6th grade is one thing. But stalking the girl who paid him on Venmo three years ago is straight psycho.

9. Build a Bridge


… and get over it. Nobody wants to hear about why you think that he is actually interested in you when it is clear that he is not.

10. For the love of God, do not pretend to butt dial him.



It is physically impossible to butt-dial someone with an iPhone. This will not capture his attention, this is just weird.

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. 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.
