8 Questions You Should Avoid Asking A Bride-To-Be

Corinne Foote

As my second sister's wedding is approaching next week, I have heard some funny questions coming from guests. The wedding being a "destination wedding" it allows for numerous thoughts a week before the big day. At least we can get a laugh from them. For the guest's sake, most people don't have a wedding outdoors on top of a mountain in Colorado during the peak winter season!

Where do you think I should stay after the wedding?

Hmm... maybe a hotel? Maybe your house if you're close enough? I'm not a travel agent.

What would you like as a wedding gift?

Newlyweds, just like college students really just want money. It even makes it easier for traveling purposes!

So what's the weather going to be like?

Insert meme here *Wouldn't you like to know weather boy?*.

Unless the bride or groom is a meteorologist, I don't think they can predict the weather, not even for their own wedding day.

So has Groom's Name seen your dress yet?!

Um...No... That's the whole point.

Would it be okay if I brought my son/daughter along? Their previous commitment got cancelled!

There are RSVPs months in advance for a reason...

Do you have exact directions to the wedding location?

Well, I already provided them on the wedding website and through multiple emails. The address is also on the invitation, but if you really need me to mail you exact coordinates, I can find time in my day to do that as well!

Wedding Day What time does the wedding start again?

This was on the invitation, wedding website and in the emails as well. I have many more things to worry about on my wedding day.

Could I sit next to friend's name at dinner? Is changing the table arrangements possible this late?

This was all prearranged months ago with the RSVP's. Please don't try and change it, there are table arrangements for a reason!

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.

8 Easy Ways to Get Involved in College

It's easier than you think.

Students walking on a sunny college campus with trees and buildings.

"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.

College without friends is like peanut butter without jelly.

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.
