Long Hair Probs

Long hair, don't care. (Or do I?)

Long Hair Probs

We long-haired ones must stick together. We know the struggle of attempting to keep our hair under wraps, but at the same time wanting to rock it and flaunt it! Having long hair is so much fun and gives you lots of options, but at the same time, deep down, we just want to rip our hair out.

1. Windows are not your friend.

Opening the windows? Driving in a convertible? Don't even think about it. We all know how the pain of attempting to see where we are going while casually getting hit in the face repetitively by our luscious locks feels.

2. But detangling spray certainly is!

This was made from the gods. While you may need a gallon of it at a time, detangler always does the trick.

3. Your hair gets caught in chairs.

And it hurts. So. Bad.

4. The feeling of taking your hair out of a ponytail is glorious.

Even though you have the crease, it feels oh so good.

5. Your showers are twice as long as everyone else's.

"Why do you always take so long?"

"Have you ever looked at my hair...?"

6. It looks ridiculous after a pool day.

Anyone need a mop? Got one right on my head!

7. You can surely rock an updo, but it takes hours to get all that hair up there.

Up-dos are so fun to wear and are the perfect go-to for special occasions. But we all know they take about two hours just to put all the hair up there.

8. Curls fall after about two seconds, even with an immense amount of hairspray.

Four different types of extra strength-hold hairspray later and you still have straight spots and fly-aways.

9. Doesn't matter how hard you try, you'll always miss a spot.

To no avail, we always realize after we're out the door that the backs of our heads look ridiculous

10. You constantly have hair in your mouth or in your face.

It's grown to be so common that you don't even notice anymore.

11. Having your hair tie break is your worst nightmare.

We always have extra though.

12. Everyone always pets you.

Am I a dog or something?

13. You've mastered the hair flip.


I mean c'mon, we all do it.

14. Every other day you contemplate chopping it off.

Like seriously, life would be so much easier if I just had short hair!

15. But the thought quickly disappears soon after.

LOL...not happening.

Because no matter what, having long hair is a blessing and a curse that you could never live without.

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.
