SPOOPY ADVICE: Bad Advice by Amanda #24
Amanda Reed

Welcome to the 24th iteration of this column. It also happens to coincide with Halloween times, which means SPOOPY ADVICE. I know you're excited, so let's get right to it, yo.

Amanda,

Tomorrow is Halloween and I'm trying to get a $3 burrito from Chipotle. I also have class all day. Have any ideas for a good costume that isn't ridiculous?

Costume-less Carl, Indiana University of Pennsylvania

Easy. Just dress up in your normal clothes for class. When they're over, or when you have a moment in-between, just grab some fake blood and put it all over your face. You could be Bloody Bloody Costume-less Carl or Zombie Carl or Carl Who Just Parted the Red Sea IF YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN *wink* The Chipotle people will appreciate your bloodiness, and you can scrub it off in the bathroom after acquiring your burrito. Win-win for you, Costume-less Carl who now has a costume.

Amanda,

How do I ensure I make out with someone this Halloweekend?

Thirsty Tina, University of I Need Someone's Face on Mine

I hope you got some mouth-to-mouth action since Halloweekend is over, but it's cool if you haven't. You are a strong, independent woman who don't need no man, and you do not need to make out with boys to validate your self-worth. Listen to Hailee Steinfield's "Love Myself" and make out with yourself in the mirror, because boys are the worst and you're better off solo. You are a cool glass of water, so drink up, Thirsty Tina.

Amanda,

HELP MY COSTUME INVOLVED GLITTER AND IT WON'T COME OFF MY BODY. IT'S ALL OVER MY FLOOR. HOW DO I GET RID OF IT?

GlitterProbs25, Millersville University

Hate to break it to you, GlitterProbs25, but you're going to have to burn your house down and light yourself on fire in order to get rid of the glitter. It was nice knowing you.

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.
