Kevin McCallister's Christmas List

It’s the most wonderful time of the year… Unless your parents have accidentally forgotten that you exist and left you at home by yourself while they tour Europe! Now, I come from a family where I have eleven brothers and sisters and I can say with complete confidence that my parents never even went as far as forgetting one of us at the grocery store!

However, I can still empathize with the McCallisters over forgetting their son because he did misbehave the night before and ruin the family pizzas. Anyone that ruins a pizza is no friend of mine. I’m just joking (kind of), but I realized the best way Kevin can forgive his parents for abandoning him is by making his best and most sophisticated Christmas list to date to help him through this difficult time!

An Alarm Clock

This one’s self explanatory.

A Cell Phone

Crisis averted... Nuff’ said.

All Neon Colored Clothing…

Who could forget him now?

A Tarantula Cage

As much as I enjoyed watching this tarantula ATTACK Marve, that thing deserves to be locked up.

A Cookbook for Kids

A nutritious diet is important for any growing boy; Kevin needs to start improving.

Insulin

His blood sugar is through the roof!

A Security System

This system is amicable but far too time consuming. And could never involve the police.

Ultra Enforced Reusable Shopping Bags

A true tragedy. This can never happen again.

A Fire Extinguisher


It's good to protect the house, but not burn it to the ground.

A Family Who Doesn’t Forget About Him

This would be one where your parents tell you “Santa’s elves can’t make everything!”

Enjoying the Luxuries Your Parents Have Spoiled You with Due to their Negligence.

He didn't even have to put this one on his list!

Now Kevin will be able to clean up all the mess he had to make to protect himself, and still be able to have a wonderful holiday with his loving family. Merry Christmas everybody!

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.
