We all have those times when we are down and there is that one thing we know will make us feel better. To me, that person is Michael Scott. No matter what episode of "The Office" I watch, his character will always be there to cheer me up. I have combined the top ten best moments of Michael Scott that will always be there to help me no matter what situation I am in.

1. When Michael Scott Paper Company was created and the episode premiered with Michael listening to lady gaga and then saying it’s Britney Bitch.

When I first saw this, I should have worn adult diapers because I peed my pants.

2. The time when Jane Levenson Gould came to the Scranton Branch because of the issue with sexual harassment.

Then when Michael announced he was stopping all email forwards and “That’s what She said.” Jim decided to make it extremely hard for him not to resist.

The beginning of Season 4 where Michael was listing all the positives in his life and forgot to notice that one of his employees was in the parking lot.

He did save her life because she had rabies and it is much more worse than a little crack in your pelvis.

5. The time that Michael and Dwight had to do “undercover” work to see what companies Prince Family Paper has.

Their sign was licking their lips to know they needed to get out of there. Once their mission was complete, they tried to get away but sadly Michael drove over a piece of concrete and ripped off his front bumper. Way to be incognito Michael!

6. When Michael still had his lease on the Michael Scott Paper Company space, he turned it into a disco café.

He tried and tried to get people to go, but sadly people did not go until he finally put speakers up to the vents so people were tempted to come down. You can’t resist a Michael Scott dance PAAARRRTTTTYY!!!

7. The time when Dwight decided to take his presentation on fire safety to the next level by creating one.

Then Michael went into overdrive and threw a projector out the window! “Today smoking is going to save lives.” Well you almost killed Stanly, Dwight.

8. When Toby was leaving and the new HR person, who Michael had a major crush on, gave Toby a rock.

The rock told Michael to suck it. Let’s just say at the end, Michael gave Toby his watch to cover his butt in front of Holly.

9. The time the warehouse people did not take the office’s safety training seriously and Michael decided he wanted to jump off the roof onto a bouncy house.

He then took a classic line from Saturday Night Live’s Point Counter Point Sketch. Even though he did not jump, he left us with a great message, rehearse your lines a little more so it sounds believable.

10. Finally, the time that Holly did not have an engagement ring on her finger and Michael went crazy!

Some people might “snot” find it funny, but it is. If you did not get the joke in the last sentence you are not a true office fan.

Even though the office has been off the air for a while it is still the TV show I go to when I am feeling down and I want a pick me up. The Office is like a Rolex, it is a timeless piece that you want to have for those special occasions, and it never loses value. So to Michael Scott, thank you for all the great times, and I have watched The Office so many times that I know say the lines before they are said on the show.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

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?
