Spring Semester should be a good one. Its right after the new year and everyone has their resolutions. We are all thinking YES we will work out and YES we will get straight As. and YES my life will be together. But in reality...Fall semester is so much better and here are 5 reasons why the Spring Semester Sucks:

1. It's cold

We call it spring but I'm freezing! I wear a million layers to school and then its hot inside and then mid day i'm sweating for an hour and then its back to being cold. This is Florida???? Why are we in a blizzard?

2. We are all pale

We have spent the last two months in leggings and sweaters. Our bodies haven't seen sunlight in weeks and we are all pasty and walking around like real like ghosts.

3. There is no college football

The Super Bowl is over and we are waiting on that one spring game. But there are no more tailgates and rivalry and we are all just sitting around waiting till Fall.

4. We took harder classes and we are all stressed.

Everyone always takes harder classes in the spring because there are supposed to be "less distractions" due to no football, however, in reality we are all just stressed and cold and tired and never want to leave our beds.

5. We all feel fat.

We haven't been in a bathing suit since summer and haven't brought our shorts out since September. Our leggings and hoodies are hiding the holiday weight and its truly the worst.

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.

It's easier than you think.

"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.
