Fourth of July— the holiday where we can embrace everything that is truly American. We celebrate our independence by swimming, lighting stuff on fire, chanting "USA, USA, USA" all while getting drunk, grilling every food we can imagine and basically wearing our flag as every article of clothing on our bodies.

Our Founding Fathers probably had no idea that gaining our freedom and becoming one fo the most powerful countries in the world would be the reason for some of the most lit parties to ever happen.

Here's how the Founding Fathers would throw a banger like it was 1776:

George Washington: The Host

He led his men across the Delaware River and he led America as the first president, so naturally, he would be the one hosting this crazy bash. He was never one for political parties, but that's not to say he wouldn't be up for throwing this kind of banger. Odds are he might even be sporting some American flag swim trunks.

John Adams: The People Pleaser

While George may be the host, every good host has a friend helping them out. John Adams would most likely be spending his time doing the behind the scenes stuff while George is greeting his guests. Need more burgers for the grill? Running out of America flag fruit skewers? Need to refill the coolers with more beer? John's got you covered.

Thomas Jefferson and James Madison: The Drinking Game Champs


This dynamic duo would be looking for party goers to play endless rounds of beer pong and flip cup, only to annihilate you. Apart they might be seen as a little arrogant but put them together and you'll see that they just want to have some fun.

Alexander Hamilton: The Party Animal

Alexander Hamilton is without a doubt the wild card of the Founding Fathers. Young and bold, Alexander would be the life of the party. He would be the one in control of the aux cord and he would definitely be one encouraging people to dance and just let go. Alexander would be the one to keep the party alive. Also, he would definitely be up to taking some shots; I heard he never throws them away.

Benjamin Franklin: The Pyrotechnic


When the sun goes down and everyone is feeling their share of the alcohol, Benjamin Franklin would definitely be the one in charge of the fireworks. Forget sparklers and cheap fireworks, he would definitely be going for the big guns so that everyone on the block knows whose party is the most ~fire~ let's be real.

John Hancock: The Blacked-Out One



John Hancock was the first to sign the Declaration of Independence, so naturally, he would be the first to black out. There is no one at that party who is stopping him from having "one more" drink, and before you know it, he's making some more bold choices.

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?
