A Thank You To My Boyfriend's Parents
Haley Houchin

To my boyfriends parents;

I just wanted to say thank you for raising the best person in my life.

Thank you for raising your son right and teaching him how to treat a girl. I don’t know what it is about boys this day and age, but for some reason none of them seem to know how to care about someone who cares about them. Most guys in college don’t know what loyalty is. So, thank you for being the perfect example of a healthy relationship and that love doesn’t run out even after 30 years together.

I don’t know what it is about boys in this era, but they’ve lost all respect for girls. It’s crazy to me how some of them have no problem purposefully being mean to girls and never having manners. Lucky for me, you’ve taught your son to always be respectful and he treats me like he should.

Thank you for showing him how to love and teaching him right from wrong. I have never met a greater guy and I know that’s all because he was raised right. You are who your parents are and you have been the greatest role models in life for him and that shows through on his behavior.

Thank you for letting me crash family events and holidays. It means a lot that you would welcome me with open arms on any occasion. Going away to college has made it hard to go home at times and I couldn’t be more thankful to have a “home away from home” to go to.

What I really want to say is just thank you. Thank you so much for excelling as parents and raising the greatest son.

Taylor Swift's Eras Tour is What I Hope Heaven Feels Like

By: James McDonald

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.
