The first year of college is one filled with many emotions. There are so many changes that take place, from leaving your family to making all new friends. Through all the experiences of my freshmen year, I have found that music is a perfect way to express how I am feeling. These are just a couple of the songs that perfectly explain my first year in college.

1. Sorry Not Sorry by Demi Lovato

My freshmen year anthem. This year I learned to not apologize for who I am and what I believe. This song always reminded me that I'm a bad b*tch and you can't kill me.

2. Young, Dumb, and Broke by Khalid

The title says it all. This is the whole point of college: to be young, dumb, and broke. And I'm definitely broke.

3. Rivers and Roads by The Head and The Heart

While freshmen year was full of new, exciting experiences, it was a lot of change. I had to say good-bye to friends I had known for my whole life. Although we weren't together, I got to watch my best friends flourish which makes up for being so far apart.

4. The Middle by Zedd, Maren Morris, and Grey

A classic. Every party you go to this HAD to be played. I would be in denial to say that this was not a vital song to my freshmen year.

5. Unforgettable by Thomas Rhett

The friends I met made this year the most amazing experience I could have asked for. I never imagined I would meet such a great group of people. So this is song is a shoutout to all the homies who made this year unforgettable. :)

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.
