You Know Who You Are

A (Short) Open Letter To All My Haters

I've thought about writing this for a long time and finally decided to do it. I hope nobody takes offense. This is not directed at any person in particular.

Dear Haters,

I love you. I'm not being sarcastic or anything. I really genuinely love you and pray for you. Even though you may not like me, that doesn't change the fact that you are a child of God and we were all put on this world to love so I will not stop loving everybody. Even those who can't stand me or have hurt me.

I am thankful for you. If not for pushing me down, I would have never realized that I have the strength to get back up. I thank you for encouraging me to prove you wrong and show that I can do it.

I am sorry. From deep inside my heart, I send you the biggest apology known to man. If I could take away anything bad I've caused you, believe me, I would trade places with you in a heartbeat. The last thing I want to do is hurt someone. My intentions are good, that I promise you.

I wish you the best. I truly wish you 100 percent health and happiness and pray for you to have an incredible life and future. I don't wish you any failure or loss.

I advise everyone to do the same. Don't have animosity or hostility for those that have wronged you. Forgive them, love them, and pray for them. Harboring hate or dislike in your hearts does nothing but pull you down, whereas love lifts you up. If someone is mean to you, embrace them with love because that is what they're lacking. If you give them that love, then they won't be so mean anymore.

Hate is a powerful word with negative energy, while love is a powerful word with positive energy. Life is too short for negative energy, life is too short for hatred. Life is too short to live without love.

So, in conclusion, I want my haters to know that no matter what they do or say, I'll still love them anyway. (That rhyme was unintentional)

Love,

Frannie

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.
