The College Party, As Told By Stock Photos

Nothing explains a standard college party better than stock photos with absolutely no context. Where do they come from? Why are they here?

Your guess is as good as mine.

The most important thing is that they exist, and here, they serve a divine purpose: to explain the bizarre, (and usually shameful,) antics of the average college weekend get-together.


When you're rolling into the party ready to show off your sick game


When you're prepped and ready to look for your soulmate at this shindig


When a guy comes up to you and tries to talk to you and you know the conversation will be going nowhere but you still want to be nice about it


When you get a text from your mom asking how the studying and abstinence is going
When you're rocking out to those sweet, tasty jams


When your crush at the party makes a move, putting their best foot forward


When you and the squad begin to full-on rage


When the completely 100% legal substances in which you consumed responsibly start to kick in


When you're so far gone that even the harshest aspects of reality can't reach you


When you've partied a little too hard but still try to act natural

When the entire party is just falling apart around you but you're still trying to keep your cool


When you've realized you've had enough so you try to call an Uber and wonder why your phone's not working


When you leave the party that night with the gross food that no one ate


When you and the squad try to write about the party on Facebook the next morning but remember nothing about it


When you realize that you have two projects, four essays and the annotations of a quarter of the textbook due on Monday when you spent all weekend at that sick party


I'm...I'm so tired. I just need rest. I do.

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.

Here is a few signs that you may live in the library, whether you'd like to admit it or not.
