Red

Who knew color could be a rap?

Check this out. I met a girl named Red home grown, corn fed. Turns out she's got this way about her but I'm the only one who knows somethin' about her. We went together for a couple three years and man I kept thinking about her over a couple of beers. She got me messed up like some kind of allergy always hitting me wrong like my paid vacation salary.

I'm some young kid from the 479 so what am I suppose to know about some young love that just ended up dyin? Man I ain't trying to start something you know she got me runnin already from this place I called home. So tell me Red what's it gonna be? Is it gonna be this life without me? You gave me a purpose I can finally see you made me love you since "Star Wars: Episode III." Take a grown man down to the movies, shit let's be honest my man that's some kind of trick.

Give Red all I had and she ran to her Dad and said I ain't lovin' this boy anymore he's just a fad. Hell you can give a girl all you got but man in the end it ain't worth the shot. So take your time and stand your ground or your place or you'll get a girl like red that ended up throwing me away like waste.

It's been awhile now since I seen her I heard now she's been working at the dry cleaners. Yeah, this stuff is what it's all about moving, going strong, getting out. But I can't help but notice that she's the color of blood maybe she's something I need or she's just a dud. But as I grew a little older my shoulders got a bit boulder and I tend to miss her this is true what I had with Red is what kept me from turning blue.

Some of you are wondering what you just read. Well, go back and read it like a song or some kind of rap. The other day I was listening to an interview from a list of well known rappers that talked about what got them started with rap. How did they come up with lyrics? G-Eazy is a platinum recording artist who would start out his lyrics about a certain someone but name her a certain color. He went on to explain how colors can go with anything and how it can transmit into certain emotions. That's like the color Blue represent sad or Red can mean love. The concept alone is neat so I figured I would try it out and see how cool it would be! Hope everyone enjoyed my attempt!

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.

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.
