Why I love Mondays and Why You Should Too

Mondays are the best! I just don't get the mentality of being head down, sad on a Monday morning. But I get it, especially for college students. You have to go to classes that you don't like or have nothing to do with what you plan on doing in life. But I always find a way around it by getting more excited about my future than nervous about it. Here are the three reasons why I love Monday mornings and you should to.

1. It's a fresh start.

The weekend is over and the hangover may be on its final run. But knowing that you are going to be waking up Monday with a fresh new start and the set a new tone for the rest of the week just makes me feel good. I always set my goals and rather than pondering about them, I execute and attack my goals throughout the week, and that alone makes me more productive and happier on Mondays, because I am ready to kick Monday, and the rest of the week in the butt.

2. Everyone else hates it so why don't you be that one person who likes it?

Now i'm not saying that every single person hates Mondays. But if you view your friend circle and most of the people around you, yeah they most likely think that Mondays are the worst. If you are that one person who actually enjoys waking up on Mondays and getting to the grind, their is a bigger possibility that you may affect one person with your positive attitude on Mondays, making that person realize that huh, Mondays really aren't that bad. Society and social media brainwash us to hate Mondays and dwell all day because it's Monday. Be that one person who stands above the herd and loves every single second on Mondays.

3. Become Grateful!

You woke up on this beautiful Monday morning. You are most likely healthy, and you are alive. Time to put things into perspective. Become grateful that you are here on this earth living, and have the opportunity to crush it!

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.
