To My Past, Present And Future Friends
Madeleine Lampert

To my past friends,

For a time, we were as close as two peas in a pod. We talked constantly over text or calls. You were there for me when other friends were being different, when I needed to vent and when boys were more complicated than statistics class. So, this is a thank you. Thank you for making me happy for the time being. I bet we didn't know one day our friendship would end. Even if we drifted apart, ended on bad terms or grew into different people, I am still thankful that I had you in my life. Also, thank you for leading me into the direction of the friends that I have now. I truly believe that God puts people in our lives for a reason. If we don't talk anymore, I hope that you are doing well and that you are happy where your life has taken you.

That leads me to the present friends,

First off, thank you for handling me. College, stressed out, busy, crazy, me. I don't know what I did to deserve friends like you. I am forever grateful for all the memories we have made and continue to make. Thank you for always being there for me through thick and think. Never being more than a phone call or text away. You're amazing. To the friends I have recently met, I hope you continue to stay in my life. You keep college me sane. Thank you for letting me know when I am overthinking or when I need to work my best. To all my present friends, a huge thank you. You make my heart happy.

To my future friends,

I am sure I don't know you yet, but I am excited to have new friends. Maybe we'll be future work friends, or meet somewhere I decide to go with my current friends. I hope you will like my present friends as well, because I sure hope they don't go anywhere. We will probably be friends while in the real world, so here is to us hoping that we can survive it together. Meet up for breakfast before we head to work and talk about about families and future husbands.

To all the friends I have had, have and will have, thank you. Where ever you go in life, know that you will always have a friend in me. I am never more than a phone call away.

Love your friend,

Maddy, Madds, M-Dawg, Cuppicake, Sweetycakes, Love Child, Amy Poehler

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.
