Stop The Gossip

Can't females just get along?

Stop The Gossip

"That girl isn't pretty enough to be with that guy."

"She's so dumb she couldn't even get into community college."

"What does she have that I don't?"

I'm sure most, if not all of us, have heard something similar to this come out of another's mouth, in harsh ways and more than once. I'm here to help break up this monstrosity.

Can't we all just get along?

Yeah, I didn't think so. I thought it was a good thought while it lasted. Because we all know that not all girls will get along. It's universally impossible.

Of course it's apparent that each female is different physically, emotionally, and more importantly psychologically. Our genetics are some of the characteristics that separate us. We can't help what we look like naturally when we are born. It's honestly our parents fault. Our fathers for picking whether we are a girl or boy, and the mother feeding us with all the cravings we gave her in the womb.

I will be furious if I see or hear a girl making fun of another girl for something she didn't have any control over. Each of us are beautiful in our own way. We all need to learn to accept that sooner or later. If you happen to see someone who know but aren't friends with, walking around with a guy holding hands and she has the biggest smile on her face, leave them alone. The hottest guy in your high school or college wants to be with someone exactly like them, but nothing like you. It will be hard to shallow the fact or imagine it, but that's how life is sometimes. You have to let it go and be okay with it.

All of us are smart in our ways as well. The girl that you said was too stupid that she couldn't be able to get into a community college, she is now working on her PhD while working three jobs to keep up with her rent, car payment, and saving up for her school loans. Take a look at your life and see what you can do better. Don't judge someone just because of how they act with their friends and family while they aren't at school. It may be a slap in the face for some of those with what you end up finding.

I swear on everything that is holy if I see one more post on Facebook about how wonders what she doesn't have that another girl has. They find out that someone's boyfriend spoiled them just because, they got a new car, or because they have a more connected home life than you do. That doesn't give you any justification to try and tear them down, or be jealous over what they have. If you want something like theirs then you have to fight for it yourself.

So, can we all just band together and cut the gossip that keeps ripping friendships apart? Can we get through the massive gap of personalities and suck it up and put on our big girl pants for humanities sake. A girl can dream, right?

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.
