Apparently, best friends share everything.

Let me just start off with thank you for giving me the opportunity to write an article with such deep substance. I would like to say this would have never become possible without me, so you are both very welcome. If I never broke your heart, you would have never needed a rebound. I am kind of a backwards cupid but I guess I don't deserve all the credit, that would just be self-absorbed.

To be honest, I thought I would be kind of upset to hear this. I am not surprised by any means. I am surprised that I didn't care. I thought I would want to scream at someone and feel such anger. I am so unbothered, so that is so great for me. I hear this happening to other people, and I just think, "wow that is soo shi**y". Not that it isn't, but you just think it is going to be something that haunts you and well pisses you off. If this is something I could have expected from my best friend, you were never a best friend.

All sarcasm out of the way, I am truly happy. Breaking you two both out of my life has given me such happiness. As harsh as that sounds, neither of you were good for me. It isn't because you are not good people, we just did not have positive effects on each other. Sometimes people just don't have the chemistry to balance each other out. I am happy for both of you for finding what you want, and that is how I really know I am over both of you.

If you want something, go for it. If you feel something for someone, don't let a situation hold you back. Having something good with someone doesn't come around often, so when you see it don't miss that opportunity. If that means by ex best-friend dating my ex-boyfriend, I am glad to be apart of the equation of helping you find each other. To both of you, I am not upset, mad, etc. It's closure. Neither of you were meant to stay in my life, but I wish you both the best.

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.
