A Letter to My Three Roommates

Hey y'all,

I wanted to write this letter to tell you I appreciate all of you. When we first decided to move-in together, we were all so excited and now that the excitement has worn off and we have officially moved in, I wanted to say a few things.

A Thank You Letter to My Amazing Roommate

First, I am sorry. I am sorry for all the times I will ask you to braid my hair. I am sorry for all the times I forget to flush the toilet and for the amount of hair I will shed. I am sorry for all the times I will interrupt your study sessions with the latest drama in my life. I am sorry for constantly texting you asking where you are because I am bored and alone in the room. I am sorry for all the times I will annoy you with my loud and obnoxious tendency to laugh at everything. I am sorry for my choice of Netflix movie and for finishing the season without you. I am sorry for the mornings I absolutely need your opinion on my outfit and throw a fit when I cannot find something. I am sorry for my random meltdowns when something does not go my way.

I am sorry for all of this, but more importantly, I am grateful for you putting up with it. I am thankful that whenever I need a shoulder to cry on, you are there. I am thankful for the times you make me coffee when I am stressed. I am thankful for your patience while I try outfit after outfit on. I am thankful you did my dishes and thankful you made dinner. I am thankful you put up with my crazy stories and my insane laughter. Thank you for always replying to me when I need you and for letting me in the building when I left my key in our room. Thank you for being my official plus 1 or plus 2 when I do not want to go somewhere alone. Thank you for the late nights of laughter and friendship. Thank you for searching through the dorm when I can't find something. Thank you for always being there.

There will be times where you hate me and wish I would just leave you alone. There will be times when I feel that way too. There will also be times when you feel like you are burdening me, but let me assure you that you are not. I love your presence and I love your unique personalities. You are my family away from home and I cannot ask for a better family.

With much love,

Your friend

Taylor Swift's Eras Tour is What I Hope Heaven Feels Like

By: James McDonald

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.

It's easier than you think.

"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.
