To My Best Friend As We Move In Together

First of all, I want to say thank you.

Dear Best Friend,

First of all, I want to say thank you. Thank you for making the decision to move in with me. I know it was not my idea to move but I am so glad that we are doing it. I cannot wait. I'm probably going to be saying that until the day we move in. You already know that I would not be able to live alone because of my fear. With that being said, I hope you don't mind if I sleep in your room from time to time. Especially if it is storming.

I cannot wait to decorate! I hope that everything that we have bought already and everything that we will buy will look super cute in the apartment. I hope everything fits because we were not thinking to measure anything or look at how much room there would be (first-time apartment hunting 101). Sure it would have been nice to get the dimensions because we would know for sure but I'm sure it will all work out.

I really hope that you are up to playing board games, and I mean a lot. We didn't play that many games when we were living in the dorms and I hope that changes (because I really like board games). I also hope that we can get out and go for walks or bike rides and explore the new area that we are moving into. One word, geocaching. I've said so many times that I want to go out and geocache and we better do it. It is so much fun and we get to see new places that we normally wouldn't go to. And you do not need to bring pepper spray like you keep saying. We will not be geocaching in sketchy areas.

Next, pizza nights are a must. I know we already do that but since we will be living right down the road from a pizza place it is even more of a must. We have been talking about trying new restaurants in the area as well and that needs to happen. We need to find the best restaurants in town so that we can tell friends and family from our hometowns about them. Because I don't know about you, but I always get asked what some good restaurants are and I don't know any other than chain restaurants.

Again, I just want to say how excited I am to be moving. This is a big change for both of us (not as big as moving from home over here for the first time a year and a half ago but still big). This is going to be our first apartment and I couldn't think of anyone else better to be sharing it with. Even though we have been living together for close to two years now, I am still nervous (and excited) to be moving in with you. I cannot wait for the day that we move in and become even more of adults. We will actually have rent to pay for each month instead of the one payment at the beginning of the school year in the dorms. That is kind of terrifying for me because I'll actually have to pay attention to how much I am spending so that I can pay the rent. Thank you for doing this with me and telling me that it is not a stupid thing to do. These next two years are going to be filled with a lot of memories (good and bad- but mostly good) and I know that it will be two of the best years of my life. Thank you so much! I cannot wait!

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.
