March Madness Is The Best Time Of The Year, Don't @ Me

In This Article:

The best time of the year is in March. March Madness has finally arrived, and as many people have submitted brackets and watching them crumble, many people are watching some of the best basketball that has to offer. Every year, 68 teams compete for one goal: National Championship. Many organizations look favorable to win, but every year you never know what's going to happen. This is where players step up and shine in the big stage, new teams show what they are made of, and the best basketball. These are three reasons why March Madness is the best time of the year.

1. You don't know what will happen

In the NCAA basketball tournament, you never know what's going to happen. Anything is possible. Many people fill out their brackets and confident thinking this is the best bracket yet, but when games come around and the results come in. You see your bracket crumbles and you lose money. That's what makes it so much fun seeing a 16 seed defeating a 1 seed or a team no would expect to go far, make far in the tournament. It drives you crazy, but you know it's so much fun to watch.

2. Spring time

This one is a little bit off topic, but when March Madness is on, you know spring is coming. One of my favorite things about around March Madness is that leaves are growing and the weather is getting warmer. Watching basketball for a while and going outside and the weather is gorgeous. As the tournament goes on springtime just keeps getting prettier. Can't help but love the combination of springtime and March Madness.

3. Games and brackets

The best part of the whole March Madness is the games and the brackets. The long hours you put into your many brackets you fill out and finally making the perfect one. Once the games start, everything didn't go to plan. That whats the best, but also the worst knowing that people who don't know much are going to win. Another thing is the games, they are on all the time throughout the first couple weeks of the tournament. The best thing to do is call off school and work and watch the tournament the whole weekend.

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?
