Every Monday it is typical to see posts from people complaining about the fact that it is Monday. There are always posts of dread about the day, but there aren't many posts complaining about any other day. This is a huge issue for me, let's talk about the real issue at hand. People are ignoring the ~actual~ worst day of the week. Sunday. The day that is absolutely terrible, yet no one seems to acknowledge it. Here are 8 reasons Sundays are the absolute worst.

1.   You have to do laundry 

When I was in elementary school and high school Sunday was the day my family did laundry. I hated seeing the large pile of clothes that needed to be folded and put away. I always knew deep down that they wouldn't be put away, and I would have them strung about my room by the end of the week until the next Sunday rolled around, and they would be washed again.

2. There is nothing good on T.V. 

All day tv is either filled with a boring sporting event or paid programming that you don't really care about. Even if you watch "Keeping Up with The Kardashians" the new episodes don't start until 9 which means the whole 21 hours of Sunday before that are boring.

3. The day usually consists of homework 

Because the Friday and Saturday are unarguably the best two days of the week, nothing, if anything, productive is accomplished these two days. This means Sunday is strictly business, which consequently makes it suck.

4. You are given a day to reflect on your choices from the weekend

Sunday for me is just an extra day where you can't really do anything fun, but you also feel bad not doing anything. Typically, Sundays consist of thinking of the money spent or negative choices made over the weekend.

5. You think about everything you have to do that week 

When you are doing homework you typically take a break to look at the upcoming week, and when you realize all you have to do you are filled with a feeling of dread. I don't think this means that people are lazy when they dread all the tasks they have to accomplish, but I think it's super natural to see your week planned out and be stressed.

6. Time goes extra fast on Sunday 

Obviously, this isn't scientifically proven or anything, but I swear time on Sunday flies by. At one point it's 10 a.m., and then you blink and it's 7 p.m. and the laundry still isn't done.

7. Sunday feels so far from Friday 

Even though technically Saturday is the furthest day from Friday, since Saturday is fun too it doesn't count. Sunday just marks the beginning of a new week and that means responsibility.

8. You know tomorrow is Monday 

If you want to hate Monday, fine. At least acknowledge Sunday's proximity to Monday makes Sunday pretty bad too.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

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?
