Live Thoughts While Watching the Second Presidential Debate
The Atlantic

The presidential debates in this election season are entertaining, to say the least. While I normally either shout things at the TV, have thoughts racing through my head, or frequently update my Snapchat story during a debate, I decided to more officially document my thoughts and share them with the world:

  • Don’t shake Trump’s hand, don’t shake Trumps hand, don’t shake Trumps hand.
  • Not a fan of Hillary’s pantsuit tonight.
  • Thank God Donald Trump can’t interrupt Hillary in this town hall-style debate (update from later in debate: he still can interrupt her).
  • Did Trump forget the question?
  • Is Trump real?
  • “I didn’t say that.” “It’s just locker room talk.” I hate this man.
  • Bragging about sexual assault is okay because look at ISIS!
  • The only way to make America safe again is to get rid of Trump
  • ATTACK HIM, HILLARY.
  • Did Trump really just bring Monica Lewinsky into this?
  • Yeah, it’s Hillary that should be ashamed for Trump’s misogynistic comments.
  • MICHELLE OBAMA QUOTE
  • Hillary Clinton ≠ the devil
  • “There has never been so much deception.” What about Watergate?
  • “It would be impossible to fact check Donald all the time.” Accurate.
  • I’d rather have a president who deleted emails than a president who attacks practically everyone that isn’t a white male.
  • “I’m a gentleman, Hillary.” I’m sorry, Trump, did you forget about your most recent viral video?
  • A woman in the White House is long overdue.
  • What’s the point of speech time restriction since both candidates talk beyond it every time?
  • Maybe Obama and Hillary don’t want to say the name “radical Islamic terrorists” because it leads to the stigmatization of an entire religion. The Ku Klux Klan are generally not labelled as Christians.
  • Keep calling Trump out for avoiding questions, Martha.
  • Donald Trump is a whiny toddler in an orange man’s body.
  • I definitely want a Commander in Chief who “knows nothing about Russia.”
  • “With her, it’s all talk.” http://www.dailykos.com/story/2015/9/17/1422403/-H...
  • “Let me remind you what your running mate said.” “He and I haven’t spoken.” What a dynamic duo.
  • “How stupid is our country?” Apparently stupid enough to still be supporting you, Donald.
  • “Tell me what your strategy is.” PREACH IT, GIRL.
  • “She has tremendous hate in her heart.” Hypocrite.
  • If another four years of Obama is what I’m getting with Hillary then sign me up.
  • Close gun loopholes and close the gender gap, Hillz.
  • The candidates saying something nice about each other?
  • One. More. Month.

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.
