A Thank You Note To Jimmy Fallon’s Thank You Notes Segment
Huff Post

Dear Jimmy Fallon,

Late night television is a part of American culture that provides viewers (and anybody on social media) a laugh over the topics and events that are going on that week. Some are a fan of James Corden, Seth Myers or one of the Jimmy’s, each one has their own segment that periodically pops up in our news feeds. My personal favorite is your Thank You Notes, where you thank the pop culture events of that week for what they really are in all of our minds. There has been so many hilarious thank you notes, but the 10 listed below are a few of my favorites. So let us all picture the slow music of the Roots as I thank you for giving us a light-hearted spin on what is going on in our world.

1.

We have all been to an outdoor wedding and if we think we are hot, imagine how the bride feels in that ballgown or the groom in his tux.

2.

It’s supposed to be very healthy, but all I can think about is how inflexible I am. Maybe one day it will come to me...

3.

And it’s so much more fun than saying the actual time.

4.

My family does write a holiday letter, and we always get lots of compliments. Yet in 20 years, we have yet to inspire somebody to write one. Coincidence? You decide?

5.

Everybody knows a snorer and nothing is more obnoxious than trying to sleep with one in the same room. I love you, but you will be dealing with the crabby, sleep-deprived person come morning time.

6.

Nobody looks good in those robes and somehow it draws focus away from that Lilly Pulitzer you just had to have.

7.

It also brings some laughs to the Thanksgiving table. It might be better to stick to yams though. Or is it sweet potatoes?

8.

Honestly, I’m just not fancy enough to call my cheese and crackers anything else. Maybe a goal for the future though?

9.

Poor Rudolph, he just wanted to fit in. I think it all ended up good for him in the end. After all none of those other reindeer have a song about them.

10.

Possibly the most uncomfortable Olympic sport ever. Don’t walk too fast, but still try to get the medal…

So, thank you, Jimmy Fallon, for providing laughs about some of the most mundane topics and reminding us to be grateful for anything and everything. Sometimes our world needs a reminder to express gratitude, even for the things we don’t like.

Sincerely,

A grateful Thank You Note viewer.

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.
