A new year signifying yet another season of The Bachelor. Cue the moans and groans. Despite all of the success the show has earned, many people still cannot get behind it. They find the show staged, cringe-worthy, and outright dumb. Believe it or not however, there are people in this world who enjoy it. And for good reason too. The show has gone on to create numerous successful relationships and marriages, as well as spark hope in the hearts of hundreds of singles across the country.

For hopeless romantics like myself, The Bachelor sparks something in our hearts that leaves us feeling warm and fuzzy afterwards...or maybe that's just the wine. We love a good love story, one that involves the playful flirting and the deep romance. Let's not forget the kissing either. The kissing is stuff we can only dream of. Unless it's something of Carly and Evan's kiss from Bachelor in Paradise...

The success that has come from The Bachelor franchise is one of great measures. Not only have the contestants managed to find love with the bachelor/bachelorette, they've also managed to find love with one another after Bachelor In Paradise. As for those who did not find love on the show, they've found success outside of the show. Whether it be for their own business or brand, they've found success in their fame.

So let the haters hate because to the rest of us, this show symbolizes success in love and life and that's something to be celebrated!

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.
