To The Best Friend I Miss

It's been a while, but I'm still here.

Wow. You know it's been a really long time since we've spoken. I feel like the last time we truly were together was our high school graduation. But even to this day, I know that you were so someone I could talk to about anything.

Thank you for being weird with me. When I first came to school there, you're one of the closest people but I had because I could reach out to you. You made me feel so comfortable and so welcomes that I never felt like I was out of place. When everyone thought I was weird by the things that I said or did, you were always right there next to me being as equally weird and making sure that I felt like I am a part of something. Through all the laughs and all the tears, nothing changed your view of me.

When they say partner in crime, they truly mean it. Funny thing about this is that when I used to get in trouble it was because of something that you and I would always do together. Where we were acting up in class or acting like complete and utter goofballs, at least we both already knew that we were in this together.

I'm sorry I allowed us to drift this far apart. When we left high school, we always said that we would stay the same. That we wouldn't change and that we would talk all the time. I'm sorry we didn't. When I see or hear about you and your life and see you're happy on Facebook or Instagram it makes me happy and sad. It makes me happy that you are finally happy and overjoyed with your life. It makes me sad because I wish I was still a part of your life so you could tell me these things instead of social media having to.

We aren't the same, we probably never will be. But that's okay. I've had you in my life for a time to make me stronger and better. But know that no matter what has happened over time, the distance we have had between us, and the loss of time we have had between us, I am always here for you.

I love you so much and I'm still here.

Sincerely,

Your Bestfriend, Brother, & Partner in Crime

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.
