The summer months are most college students' favorite time of year. School's out, the sun is shining, and you're ready for a new routine. While summer can feel like one long haze, the months that make it up have their own characteristics and that act as a timeline. And there's no one better to define this timeline than the characters of the Office.

May

Summer is finally here! School is out and everyone is back in town and ready to kick off summer. You are fresh off that finals grind and ready to let loose and enjoy the next few months of relaxation.

June

The summer is still young, but June is the time when things start to pick back up again. Maybe you have a job, internship, or are headed back to school for some classes. While this might not be the way you wanted to spend your summer, it can't hurt, right? Either way, its time to remember that summer isn't all fun and games, but about better developing yourself without having to worry about the stressors of the school year. Use this opportunity to be productive!

July

July is the midpoint of summer, and arguably the best summer month. The Fourth of July brings lots of fun and celebration to your routine and allows you to spend time with family and friends. Maybe you have a vacation planned, too. July is the month where you have finally settled into summer and feel good about it.

August

Before you know it, summer is practically over. Things are winding down, friends are started to head back to school, and you're ready to take on a new school year. It was fun while it lasted, but all good things must come to an end.

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?
