Products To Get You Through The School Year

Senior year is supposed to be the best year of your college career but sometimes (or all the time) it's incredibly overwhelming and the stress gets to the best of you! With the help of some friends, I made a list of products and items that help us get through not only a regular school year but a senioritis-filled school year.

1. A Keurig can be programmed to turn on right when you wake up so all you have to do is insert a cup and push a button for a caffeinated start to your day.

You can get any size Keurig with Amazon Prime with two-day shipping and most come with a pack of K-cups.

2. Lilly Pulitzer's agendas make writing down assignments and work schedules tolerable. They come in multiple sizes and patterns for whatever your little heart desires.


You can order them here and get them shipped to your dorm or apartment.

3. If you're like me and only wash your hair once a week, dry shampoo is a necessity to go from class, to work, to the bar, and then maybe back to class the next day.


Batisteand Not Your Mother'sare my personal favorites to bring out my inner Becky with the good hair

4. Use a face mask after a long day (or weekend) for an at home spa treatment with the roommates.


The Body Shop's Tea Tree Clay Mask is perfect for sensitive skin and makes your skin feel like you never even pulled that all-nighter.

5. Living in New England, the winter's are insanely harsh and dry and so lip balm becomes my best friend. EOS is my favorite brand because the egg shape is hard to lose (unless my cat finds it).

The mint is my favorite flavor and you can get them pretty much anywhere

6. Candles are great for a cozy atmosphere in a tiny apartment or dorm room. I recently came across Homesick Candles that fill the room with scents of home which is perfect for out-of-staters.


They can be purchased here!

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.
