Spring Activities in Auburn

12
Baseball When the weather is nice, there’s nothing better than an Auburn baseball game at Plainsman Park. It’s always fun to get together with some of your friends, and it’s really convenient that you can walk to the field right after class. Not to mention the fact that nothing goes better with watching baseball than eating a hot dog or chowing down on a frozen lemonade with that not-so-hard earned tiger card money. The perfect Auburn weather, mixed with the slower pace of baseball, makes for an awesome time at the stadium.The Pool By the time April rolls around and classes start winding down, pool season begins. If you’re done with classes early in the day, there’s no reason not to head to the pool and go for a swim. Without a doubt, the Creekside pool is the best and most happening pool in Auburn. But if you just want to relax, read a book, or even get some studying done, there’s plenty of calmer pools around.Chewacla
The number of things to do at Chewacla State Park are endless. If you’re feeling adventurous, you could go hiking on one of several different trails, in addition to a mountain biking trail. You can also go swimming in the lake at the park. And if you’re a little hungry, you can always pack a picnic and go eat at one of the great scenic views inside the park. Chewacla is definitely one of the more popular getalways for Auburn students when the weather gets warmer.

RecreationIf you play golf, spring is definitely the time to play in Auburn. There are a ton of courses to choose from, and Auburn was actually ranked Golf Digest’s number one city in America to play golf in. Auburn’s campus also has plenty of nice tennis courts, if that’s more your style. And instead of heading to that brand new recreation center on campus, you can go for a run outside. It’s definitely more enjoyable than running on a treadmill when the weather is so nice in the Spring.  

GrillingIf you’ve got a grill, you are really missing out if you don’t put that thing to good use. Getting some of your friends to come over and grill some hot dogs or hamburgers can be a really good time when the weather warms up. If you have a nice porch, like in Creekside or Aspen Heights, that’s even better. If you aren’t in the mood to go out or do anything crazy, grilling out is a great alternative during the springtime.

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.
