To The Boy...

To the boy who thought I wasn't enough for him, I was more than enough. I have always been enough, and I will always be more than enough.

To the boy who said "wow I don't deserve you", yeah you didn't. But for some reason I stuck around, well for a while.

To the boy who explained I was "too much" for him, you obviously don't know how to handle someone who wanted nothing but the best for you.

To the boy who thought it was okay to tell me my beliefs in Jesus were nonsense, I pray that someday you experience the love I feel from God.

To the boy who bullied me all of elementary school for my crooked smile, someday you're going to regret all the hurtful things you said to me or called me.

To the boy who thinks it is stupid I am not interested in drugs or alcohol, please respect what I want or don't want to put in my body.

To the boy who tore my heart out, ripped it to shreds, stepped on it as if it were a piece of gum on the sidewalk, made me feel weak, insecure, and made me hate what I saw in the mirror everyday, why did you think you could do that? I have to thank you honestly, I didn't know how strong I could be until I was nothing.

To the boy who think he can play games with me, haha good joke.

To the guy that I had feelings for about two and a half years, I'm glad I got past seeing only the good in you and finally recognized the bad. Even though you are a good person, just not good for me.

To the MAN that I will marry someday, I am so excited. I apologize for the mistakes that I have made and I hope that you like a girl who speaks her mind and not one who will hold her tongue. I hope you like a woman who would rather eat brownies for dinner when it has been a rough day rather than coming home to a three course meal (and yes I expect you to eat the brownies with me).

To the girl reading this, please don't ever think you are not enough. You are beautiful, you are brilliant, you are vibrant, you are loved, you are valued, and you are accepted for the way you are right now without change. No BOY will ever be able to understand or accept you for the way you are. A MAN will do all of these things and more, and show you how to be loved because he himself will love you as God does.

To the girl reading this... You. Are. Enough.

The transition into adulthood is never easy

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.
