How dare you.

To The Men Who Cry At The Movies

Something tells me you're reading this article because you know a man who cries at the movies or you are one. Well, I have a message for those men: shame on you. Crying isn't for men. How dare you express natural human feelings during a movie that isn't even real.

If you Google "men crying" the first image is President Obama wiping away his tears. Did he go see a movie? I don't know. Probably not. But he's our president, he doesn't have time to cry. No wonder our country is divided and suffering. Thanks Obama.

Men go to the movies, sure. But cry? That's a sign of weakness. How are you supposed to work if all you do is cry at the movies? Next thing you know you'll be calling yourself a Meninist trying to fight for the equality of men. We don't need to be equal; we need to be strong.

Imagine if you went to the theater and you started crying because a fictional character died, or even worse - a dog! - and then your boss happened to see you. You're fired. That's that. No one can tolerate a sobbing wussy of a man to accomplish anything in their life.

The best thing to do when you feel like crying is to suppress those emotions that come naturally to you and bury them deep inside of you where no one will find them. Build a mental wall around those feelings and don't let anyone in. Become boring, robotic, and soulless. Those are the sexiest types of men. Those men are marriage material.

The truth is, men should just be replaced by robots. Robots don't cry. Robots get their work done. Robots are tough. Robots don't let emotions ruin their lives. Men are becoming weaker and more sensitive. They need to stop embracing their humanity and man up because true men don't show their feelings. That's just ridiculous.

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. 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.
