If You Give a Girl A Golf Club

She will want a bag to go with it.

I recently started golfing so I had a competitive sport to pass the time. Having played three sports in high school, I found that I was missing some of that competitive drive in college. My boyfriend so graciously said he would help me learn how to swing a club and play the course.

It took a few days at the driving range and one round of golf and I was hooked. I already got a new bag for my clubs so I can carry them easier when we walk the course. I decided to write a comedic version of the slight downward spiral that I will most likely hop on in a few days. Here is for all of the boyfriends thinking about getting their girlfriends into golf!

1. If you give a girl some old golf clubs, she will say, "lets go golfing!"


2. When you take her to the driving range she will have some trouble hitting the balls.

3. When she has trouble, she will ask you for help.


4. When she asks you for help and she will get better.

5. Once she gets better she will ask you to take her on the actual golf course.


6. When you get on the course, she will complain because her bag was not designed to carry it around to the nine holes you decided to start with.


7. When she complains about her bag, she will start to look at new ones and SWEAR that she is not going to buy any and that she is "just looking."


8. She will buy that bag, and when she does she will want all of the accessories to go with it.


9. Once she gets her accessories like balls, tees, a glove, towels and scrub brushes she will want to go again.

10. You decide to take her again and she says that her clubs are so old that they are dead and won't hit anything good.


11. You try to convince her that her clubs are fine but she will ask for a new driver.

12. Once she gets her new driver she will want golf spikes so she can get "traction" on the course.


13. Once she gets her shoes she will want to go golfing constantly and since paying for all of those rounds get expensive, she wants a membership.

14. Once she gets a membership, she will go as much as she can.



15. With her golfing so much, she decides she needs a good putter.

16. Once she gets a good putter she will want some new wedges.

17. Once she gets new wedges she will decide that she might as well get some new irons.


18. After she gets her new irons, her woods will no longer do and she gets new sets of those too.

19. After she has all of the get up, she will want to go with you, and you take her, but explain that golf is your way to get away and she understands that you need some alone time.

20. When she understands that sometimes you need your space, she calls up your buddies and takes them. Now you are without a golf partner.


Even though she drives you crazy and she took all of your golf buddies, you still love her and love that she found something that keeps her happy. Golf is a lifetime sport. It can be leisurely or competitive, and it is somewhat easy to pick up.

I highly recommend taking it up as a hobby because it has kept me sane, especially through finals week. And boys, don't be afraid to take your girlfriend golfing. You might find that it is another way to bond other than watching Netflix. And girls, let them go golfing with their buddies. Sometimes, they need their bro time.

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.
