If MySpace Surveys Were Still Cool

We all get a little nostalgic for those bulletin surveys.

If MySpace Surveys Were Still Cool

If you were a middle schooler before 2010, it's pretty likely that you had an obsession with the bulletin surveys. You know, the ones that were titled "20 Things About Your Top 2" or "100 Random Facts About Me."

EVERYONE did them, and I'm among the guilty. So what if we took those 2005 surveys and fast-forwarded them to our 2015 selves?

About You

Favorite Color:
Why did we feel the need to tell every living person what our favorite color was? By the way, mine's black ...

Screen Name:
Sadly I've had the same username since I've had social media, so this question is kind of embarrassing.

Favorite Band:
Fall Out Boy forever.

Your Car:
What's up with this question? Truthfully anyone who used MySpace was too young to drive (I think). I wonder what my MySpace-self would have said to this.

Your Present Town:
First rule of Internet safety, don't tell strangers where you live. Good job, MySpace.

Your Crush's First Name:
I wonder how many middle school "relationships" this question has ruined.

Have You Ever

Kissed someone in the rain?
Honestly, we were all in like middle school. Most of us haven't even kissed someone yet. (Unless I'm just a giant loser ...)

Smiled for no reason?
What is this question?

Peed your pants after age eight?
Why would anyone want to publicly humiliate themselves by answering this question?

Talked to someone you don't know?
MYSPACE, c'mon! We're not supposed to talk to strangers!

Made out in a theater?
Good thing parents never figured out the whole MySpace thing, or a lot of kids would have been grounded.

Been in love?
I'm sure if I would have taken this in the appropriate time period, I would have had some super deep and pre-adolescent answer to this. But now, as an almost 21-year-old in 2015, the only true love I know is pizza.

Who was the last person to

Kiss you?
How many of us actually answered this question?

Tell you BYE?
BYE in all capital letters? Isn't that kind of intense, MySpace?

Write you a note?
It's 2015, we're texting now ...

Call your cell phone?
I don't know about anyone else, but I didn't even have a cell phone when I had MySpace.

Go with you to the movies?
I'm sure a past answer to this definitely would have been a large group of people, including whatever boy my little middle school heart was in to at the time. Now, it's just always my roommate and me. Girls' nights over everything.

Touch you?
... This is VERY promiscuous, MySpace.

Finish The Line

If i were a ...
So much leeway with this one. If I were a boy, even just for a day ...??? (Thanks, Bey.)

I wish ...
For world peace? To not be grounded? To be rich? What do MySpace users say to this?

So many people don't know that ...
*insert vaguely interesting fact about myself here*

I am ...
Hungry.

My heart is ...
What a loaded question for an Internet site full of, essentially, children. I bet we all said something like "in love" or "broken." I'm glad I came to my senses and realized that "my heart is" a very important organ.

Thank you to modmyspaces.com for keeping these epic surveys up on your site. Now I'm feeling nostalgic and am kind of missing the MySpace days.

The transition into adulthood is never easy

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.
