To be married or not married.

Recently Miley Cyrus appeared on the "Ellen Show," where she talked about her long time on-again-off-again engagement to fiancé Liam Hemsworth. The two have finally reconciled after splitting back in 2013. More importantly, she talked about how the ring symbolizes his love for her, that a document may not. Why is getting married important for people? Why do people choose not to get married?

Marriage is a symbolism of love, kindness, and trust between two people — A celebration that the LGBTQ community can finally be a part of in various states and countries. There are many people, heterosexual, homosexual, queer, transgender, that don’t want to get married because they don’t believe that a document or a ceremony has to be the defining moment in their relationship that ties the love of two people forever. Not all marriages stay forever?

However, Ellen has explained various times that her marriage to wife Portia de Rossi is important because they were able to celebrate and solidify their love for each other. To many, a wedding is an important celebration that allows for couples to bond their love for each other and that they will do anything they can to stay together. Through sickness and health, till death do they part. A marriage is the document and section of one's life, where the love and trust are tested on a daily basis, and hopefully built stronger so the couple stays together forever.

On the show, Miley explains that most of her jewelry is usually made out of Gummy Bears and Cotton Candy, but that is her personality. The reason that she loves to wear the ring, even if it doesn’t exactly match her ecstatic, is because she loves her finance, and respects his love for her. Isn’t it the love and respect for two people what solidifies a relationship forever? I give props to Miley Cyrus for talking about her opinions on this matter in a professional and sophisticated way, because it allows for many to understand the importance of a relationship that lasts. It doesn't have to be symbolized with a ring, or a document, but rather the defining love and trust between two people.

Within the last year, Miley has definitely changed her point of view on life. She has become a more professional version of her carefree self. Many people have bashed the singer for her disrespectful and unnecessary clothing and life choices. I have continuously given her props for being outspoken and generally not caring how people view her. She also revealed the true harsh life of being a Disney star, explaining that she was forced to work under a strict schedule and maintain a happy G-rated way of life. By pushing the boundaries, Miley has allowed people to see her true persona. No one likes a fake actor who tries to be more likable than his or her true self.

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.
