If You Wrote For The Odyssey
Makayla Mowel

This week I wasn't sure what to write. I don't know if it's writers block or maybe I've just lost my magic (let's hope not). Then an idea popped into my mind: "I wonder what other people would write if they were on the Odyssey." So I decided to ask a couple of people what they would write about and make a list of those things. Whether I use this for my own ideas in the future or if someone else does, I just hope everyone finds it entertaining and interesting!


Olivia: "Me."

Followed by...

"You should write what it's like to live with a celebrity because I was on the Team US."


Nicole: "How to be sassy when your boss gets on your nerves." *extra salty flare*


Maddie: "Interesting ways to make money in college." For example: Writing contests, on campus jobs, returning cans, selling to Plato's closet, etc.


Destiney: "What it's like to be in a serious relationship during your college years."


Jenn: "Climate change."


Olivia (after she realized she was being too egotistical): "Why tattoos are addicting."



Lauryn: "Why having a sister is so great!"


Sam B: "I would write about something to do with taking care of our planet and each other like stop being so harsh and rude and start being caring and compassionate. We have to be the generation to change and stop the hate rather than fall into it ESPECIALLY with all of the recent events."


Jae: "What it feels like to lose a child and how to cope with the days that follow."


Sam C: "Why support animals help."


Daniella: "I would write about what it's like telling your parents you're pregnant at 15. It's not easy and not all parents are accepting. I would also tell people what to do in that situation and really educate them on what their options are."


Overall, I loved all of the responses I got! Some of them are things I have never really thought about writing and others are topics I haven't experienced or been educated on. I'm sure there will be a day where I can't think of an idea again and now I have this article to look back on!

Parks and Recreation excitedly gathered around a laptop at a table in an office setting.

The library. Club lib. The place every college student goes when they want to try and be a productive member of society. Who better to explain your experience than Parks and Rec?

1. When you've finally found the energy to leave your dorm room and walk into the lib like

Taylor Swift in orange dress playing a moss-covered piano on stage with bright lights.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

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.

Students walking on a sunny college campus with trees and buildings.

"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.
