A Love Letter To McDonald's
McDonalds

Dear McDonald's,

First, I would like to thank you. You have always been there for me. Like when I need a Dr. Pepper, or when we are traveling and I have to go to the bathroom, or when I need ice cream. SIKE. Your machines are always broken (work on that please). No but seriously. Thank you. You're always there for my and my pals whether it's one in the afternoon or 2:15am after a night full of dancing at the bars.

Secondly, I would like to tell you how much I love you. You are really stepping up the fast food game. Which by the way, that really sucks for people trying to eat healthy. It all started with the dollar menu (put the McChicken back on it please). Then there was the McPick 2 for $5. Next was all day breakfast. We have finally landed with the greatest thing ever. The McDonald's App. Most importantly, the App is free - just like some of the items on the menu.

For most people, living without the App is doable. And honestly, McDonald's is one of the most affordable places to eat. But if you're a broke college student and would rather spend your money elsewhere, take the W and download the App.

The App offers a plethora of promotions. You can buy a breakfast sandwich and get a free coffee/orange juice. That's cool and everything, but let me tell you about the real winner. The winner is me. Yes me. Fly the W. It's called Friday for a reason. If you buy anything on Friday, you get free fries. Cool! Also, if it's 90 degrees in your area, you get free ice cream. Even cooler.

Recently I also found out that McDonald's is offering a Happy Hour. Way cool. Every drink (yes that includes Dr. Pepper in a styrofoam cup) is only $1.10 as opposed to $1.31.

So thank you Dons. Not only do I love free things, but I also love reliable people. And you're always there to support my awful diet.

With so much love,

Your happy customer, Alli Krone

And if you're wondering - no, I'm not doing PR for McDonald's.

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.

College without friends is like peanut butter without jelly.

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. Others have slaved away many nights under the fluorescent lights, and are slightly annoyed to find their study space being invaded by amateurs. While these newbies wander aimlessly around the first floor, hopelessly trying to find a table, the OGs of the library are already on the third floor long tables deep into their studies. Here is a few signs that you may live in the library, whether you'd like to admit it or not.
