Dear Maggie and Sailor,

I don't even know where to begin. You guys really are the best plain and simple. Its hard to put into words how much you really mean to me. The simple fact that you are both sitting on the couch with me as I write this to you shows that you love me just as much as I love you. There are so many great qualities about you guys I really just don't know where to begin to express how amazing you guys are.

I think one of the best things about you is that you guys love me unconditionally. I could accidentally bump you with a cabinet door or throw the ball into the bush, but that doesn't change how excited you get when I walk through the door or call you into my room,. You always come with the same amount of excitement and It rubs off on me. You're always down to hang, and you don't keep score against people when they do something you don't like. you both forget the wrongs and move on which is something I could really learn from y'all.

Another lesson I can take from you guys is that naps are not over rated. I have never met two dogs that sleep as much as you guys do in my entire life, and you guys don't just sleep- you SNORE. But, neither of those things is bad. I really could take a couple more naps and I'm sure my quality of life would go up for sure. Thank you for being such good nappers and showing me that its okay to sleep whenever and wherever I want to.

To Maggie, Im so thankful to have had you in my life while I've been growing up. You aren't getting any younger, but thirteen years old looks good on you girl. I'm proud of you for overcoming your hearing loss and still being such a spunky pup. You're just as fun and weird as the day we brought you home and I love you so much.

Sailor, you are insane, but I love you bud. When we finally decided that we wanted Maggie to have puppies and my parents decided we were going to keep one, I'll be honest and say you were definitely not my first choice of the litter. You were the runt and all your brothers and sisters picked on you so bad but i'm really happy we ended up with you. I've never met a dog who likes cuddles as much as you do and I'm really happy that you'll sit on my lap whenever I want you to. You're a pain in the butt, but I think I speak for the family when I say that we wouldn't want It any other way.

I love you guys so much,

Lilly

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.
