Well it is that tine of the year! Summer is here, which means pool parties ensue everywhere! Here are the summer birthday pros and cons!

1. That end of the school year summer birthday celebration

Preschool. Probably in June, with all the other summer birthdays.

This BS, yet dope day at the end of the year made you annoyed that you had to share the spotlight at school, but also there were so many cakes and goodies that you didn't mind.

2. If you have a Pool you are most likely having a pool party.

That's me at my 13th Birthday, Front and center with a glow stick around my neck

Brooke Rosenblum

I'm 18 almost 19. About 5 of my birthday party's involved my pool and a cookie cake. Not that I'm complaining or anything.

3. Most of your friends may be on vacation when your actual Birthday comes around

THIS WAS LAST YEAR! Even I was on vacation on my birthday.

Brooke Rosenblum

I planned my sweet sixteen in September ( my birthday is August 10th), at the beginning of the school year, because I knew everyone would be home.

4. On the other hand all your friends aren't in school or doing Homework so a party is always on the table

Brooke Rosenblum

Those pool party's I mentioned always came in clutch especially when your friends were around to have a good time.

5. Lastly, You are one of the younger people.

That means you are the last to drive, vote, drink, and so many other things that I can't even think of. It Sucks most of the time but, honestly I didn't really mind having to get rides or waiting in that under 21 line at toads.

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?

Others have slaved away many nights under the fluorescent lights, and are slightly annoyed to find their study space being invaded by amateurs.
