A Letter To Eyebrows

Who cares about lips, noses, and cheeks. Eyebrows are the real MVP.

A Letter To Eyebrows

Dearest brows,

First of all, thank you. Thank you for holding my face together, for allowing me to look confused, excited, or mad whenever I choose to, and most importantly for being on fleek after I preformed a super unnecessary makeup routine solely to fill in the one little gap I was born with. We all know how essential you are to our lives; a bad eyebrow day is definitely worse than a bad hair day. We all fear getting you waxed in case they take off too much or give you the wrong arch. We spend way too much money on "Anatasia" products because you deserve the best. We treat you with such care in hopes that you will grow thick and beautiful for all to see (and envy).

I'm really so glad we decided to start caring about you again. Back when I was in middle school, there was a girl in one of my classes who was blessed with such dark thick brows. I one day said, "hey, you have pretty eyebrows" only to receive the dirtiest look I have ever been given. Fortunately in this day and age, getting told your brows are "on fleek" is quite the compliment. Having good eyebrows shows you care about your appearance, and probably care way too much about such a random part of your face.

Because of you, celebrities such as Lily Collins, Cara Delevingne, and Camilla Belle no longer have to worry about their brows being too thick or too dark. Instead they are praised and worshipped because the average person is just too unlucky to get half of that thickness and fullness. You have shown celebrities like Khloe Kardashian, Taylor Swift, and so many more that you do matter and they should probably fill theirs in. Now they, too, are killing the brow game.

So here's to you, eyebrows. Thank you for helping us to look our best at our worst and for always providing us with a panic attack in the morning when they are all "off fleek." Thanks for being the one feature every girl will notice while boys probably could care less. May we forever, line, brush, and fill you in to perfection.

Sincerely,

Girls Everywhere With Eyebrows

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.
