The Story of True Love

It was a rainy day in Washington, D.C. and I was waiting for my black coffee straight, to be bought out to me, when I spotted her walk in and dust her jacket off. Everyday we played this game with each other; we would stare at one another, then smile and walk off. Today I was ready to make my move.

As she walked by, I got a whiff of her Christian Dior perfume and it made my senses go weak. She had to be the most beautiful woman in the world to me. She was significantly shorter than me, about 5'5", she had this short chocolate brown hair that was always styled differently, she had the biggest round doe eyes and the deepest dimples, and her dark chocolate skin drove me crazy, but what I loved most was her smile. She had white, straight teeth that could light up the whole room.

I had butterflies in my stomach, I was unsure how I wanted to approach her. I know how much of a cliché this sounded, but I was in love at first sight. I finally decided what I wanted to do. I quickly approached the second cash register and said, "Whatever the beautiful lady orders down there it's all on me." "Okay sir," the young cashier said.

I made sure to stay within earshot so I could hear what was going on. "I would like a Vanilla Bean frappé with one of your banana nut muffins," she said. I watched intently as she dug in her Gucci bag and pulled out a match wallet. "That's not necessary ma'am, the gentlemen over there already paid for you," the young cashier said.

She turned around and looked to where the cashier was pointing and smiled at me. The butterflies in my stomach fluttered more. I finally made my way over to her and asked, "How you doing today Ms. lady?" She gave me that million dollar smile again and said, "I'm doing well. How are you?" "I'm doing better now, I'm Ayron Cincaid and you are?" I asked. "I'm Bianica Dillard. It's nice to meet you Mr. Cincaid," Bianica said.

"The pleasure is all mine, I'm glad I finally we finally got acquainted." We shared the most intense stare and I saw all kinds of possibilities with this woman. I finally got up the courage to ask this beautiful out. "I don't usually ask women that I just met out on a date but I feel like we have a connection. Could I take you out, so we can get to know each other better?"

Come back next week to see what happens between Ayron and Bianica.

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.

Others have slaved away many nights under the fluorescent lights, and are slightly annoyed to find their study space being invaded by amateurs.

Here is a few signs that you may live in the library, whether you'd like to admit it or not.
