SELINSGROVE, PA- Sitting with a demeanor that could only be described as sheer desperation and spite, news outlets spotted local resident Gary Edwards alone at a table for four at a local Hoss's, twiddling his fingers sourly against the edge of the table while the rest of his party eagerly sought out the free salad bar.

"It's like this every goddamn time", Edwards was reported muttering as he rested his face against the palm of his hand, "they know that I don't like salad. And it's not like the bread here's anything to write home about." Occasionally glancing at his iPhone to see if Aunt Betty ever accepted his friend request, Edwards was reported as pouring every ounce of what little energy was left within him to not look in the direction of the rest of the table, who sources claim at the time as having reached the dressings station.

"F*** Carla, and Becky, and Davis", Edwards muttered as he typed 'kidney' into Words with Friends, "little shits can never choose between Thousand Island or that...what do you call it...vinaigrette garbage", Edwards continued, "then they all tell me 'oh, just order an appetizer', but have the audacity to get pissed when I refuse to share my onion rings."

"Oh, and then it's my fault that they're all filled-up, and suddenly I'm the bad guy for making everybody stay a little longer so I can finish my meal", sources report Edwards saying as the waitress stopped by to tell him the bread should be out in "just a bit", to which Edwards smacked himself on the forehead, forgetting that he was to ask her to skip on the coleslaw with his fish and chips.

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.
