10 Reason I Love Being A Single Pringle
ChucksFun

It seems as though all you hear nowadays is how people are oh so miserable when talking about being single. I for one, happen to really enjoy it. Especially after getting out of a rough relationship, being single is SUCH a good times. Here's 10 reasons why.

1. Saving Money

What's better than paying for a romantic dinner for two? Buying a large pizza, eating it alone while watching "That 70's Show" reruns, and knowing you saved some serious cash.

2. Being Selfish

People often see being "selfish" as a bad thing, however it is so necessary to an extent. Being single gives you the opportunity to do things for you and nobody else; while not having to worry about another person.

3. No Shaving!

Not that you have to shave your legs while you're in a relationship either, but most people do and boy oh boy am i so glad i do not have to worry about that.

4. Jealousy? What's that?

Getting jealous in a relationship is common and almost impossible to avoid. But no relationship=no jealousy. Tell me thats not music to your ears.

5. No Compromising Netflix Shows

Having to sit through shows and movies that you simply are not interested in, are usually common occurrences in a relationship. But guess who you have to sacrifice binge watching your favorite shows for when you're single? N o b o d y.

6. Being Responsible for Nobody's Feelings

It's easy to get emotionally invested in a relationship. Before you know it, your significant others problems and feelings also become yours. It is extremely nice to not have to constantly have those thoughts and worries in the back of your mind.

7. Flirting Around

This one is pretty self-explanatory. Especially after being a relationship for a while, getting back out there and not having to worry about and serious feelings can be super fun. Of course not having to owe anyone anything is great too.

8. Freedom

Not having to constantly have somebody else know what you are doing basically all the time is definitely a perk. My decisions are mine and mine only and do not have a direct affect on anyone else.

9. Self Discovery

It can often be difficult to maintain individuality while in a relationship. I know for me, I lose myself in relationships. This being said, it is so fulfilling learning new things about yourself; like interests, disinterests etc.

10. Not Giving a Single F**K

Being single gives you the opportunity to do, WHATEVER YOU WANT. I don't have to answer to anyone and i can 100% do things that i enjoy without having to worry about another part of the equation. I am living life to the fullest and doing things that make me feel joy.

I love being single, and hopefully these 10 things make you feel a little better when you're moping about not having a boyfriend/girlfriend. Life is too short to not do things that make you happy. If you're single, great! If you're not single, also great! Just make sure you are doing things that benefit your life regardless, and you will be just fine.

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.

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.
