An Open Letter To The Friends Who Walked Into My Life

Thank you. Thank you for being the friends that I was able to meet and become so close with, my only wish is that I got to know you earlier.

There was a time in my life when I didn’t know who my real friends were. Then I met all of you. You all changed the meaning of friendship for me and I could not thank you guys enough. When my old friends walked out of my life, I never knew I would be blessed with people as great as all of you to come in and be a part of some of the greatest memories of my life. From eating sushi at local restaurants to going to the beach and spending all of our money in the arcade and boardwalk, the memories are endless. Each one of you has made me laugh until I cry and I would not have it any other way, so here is my thank you:

Thank you,

For being there when I need a hug.

Even when I was on my bed crying about some sort of drama, all of you sat by me to listen and give me hugs to make me feel better.

For making me laugh until I cry.

The best times were when something happened or someone said something hilarious and we all ended up on the floor laughing our heads off, trying to catch a breath.

For accomplishing great things beside me.

Even when something seemed like a huge challenge we stuck by each other until we did it.

For staying up until 3am just talking.

The best nights were when we would stay up late bonding over long conversations that we just never wanted to end.

For taking pictures over and over.

You know what I'm talking about, taking candid photos or retaking the same picture over and over again for your Instagram post.

For endless support.

Nothing is better when your friends have your back. Thank you for always supporting and encouraging me in everything I do.

For finishing the food with me that we over ordered.

Whether we order way too much sushi, popcorn or even pizza, everyone pushes through and finishes the food together.

For helping me pick out an outfit.

Whether we are on a trip, going out for the night or just picking out something for an upcoming event, you all were always there to offer advice in order to help me achieve the best look possible.

For being there for me.

Most of all, thank you all so much for being there for me. Through all of the good or bad times I have had, I know I can always trust all of you to be there for me.

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.
