You either love makeup or you don't. Those of us who do love it, have countdowns until our favorite brands launch new products, buy all the limited edition holiday collections, and really don't care that you think we might just be a little bit crazy.

The mini heart attack you have when you drop your favorite bronzer

It doesn't matter how much it cost, your heart will stop every single time.

“I’m only buying one eyeshadow palette” *Walks out with three new eyeshadow palettes, a highlighter palette, and a new mascara.*

I mean it's just like going to Walmart when your hungry right?

Bracing yourself before you dip into a loose powder so your outfit doesn’t get messed up.

Translucent setting powder is the quickest way to ruin an entire outfit.

The slight feeling of shame when the person at the register says “Thank you for being a Rouge Member” or “Thank you for being a Diamond member”, or if you are me, you are both….

Hey at least I use all my makeup right?

At least you know exactly which drink is yours because of the giant lipstick or lipgloss marks on your straw.

No explanation needed...

Somehow your makeup melts off in under an hour when you go out, but when you go to take it off at night it takes five makeup wipes and you’ll go through two or three rounds of rinsing off cleansing balm.

You'll still wake up in the morning and find some makeup on your face too.

Only having one bag filled with clothes but having two bags filled with makeup when you travel.

It's not my fault Natasha Denona dropped two beautiful palettes before I saw all the limited edition holiday collections.

Explaining to your significant other that yes the two new red lipsticks you just bought are completely different.

An orangey red and a more blue red are two very different things.

Wait Sephora is giving us discount codes???

If you've ever shopped at Sephora you know exactly what I'm talking about.

At the end of the day as long as you have on makeup, it really doesn’t matter what you wear out of the house.

At least my makeup looks good right?

When your winged eyeliner is perfect and people ask you why you took "so long to get ready" 

Winged liner is an art that takes a long time and extreme levels of care.

Obsessing over the packaging when a new product is launched.

It's an experience, OK?

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.

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?
