My thoughts on the show

The End Of The F*cking World - Season 2 Review

I know I'm probably extremely late with this, but I didn't actually know that the show would make a second season because first of all, the comic that the show was based off of ended when James was shot, and second of all, the season was so well done in terms of the storyline (in my opinion) that it didn't really seem like the show needed another season. But then they came out with another season, believe it or not.

The End Of The F*cking World is a Netflix Original that is basically about two problem children, James and Alyssa, who decide to run away together despite not really knowing each other that well beforehand. Oh, and James secretly wants to murder Alyssa because he's convinced himself that he's a psychopath. Not gonna lie, I really do not like Alyssa at all so I was hoping James would hurry up and get it over with, but unfortunately that didn't happen. I learned to appreciate Alyssa anyways, sometimes.

So, about Season 2. I have to say, it really did not make me like Alyssa anymore. It's funny how James literally planned on murdering a person for no reason besides him trying to be edgy, but I actually really like James. It's been a while since I've seen Season 1, but I do think that James was a bit out of character this time around. I don't know, he just seemed too expressive and emotionally intelligent for someone who stuck his hand in a fryer just to feel something. In Season 2, Alyssa was her typical no-filter self, but she seemed to seriously hurt people for no good reason this time around. She kind of reminds me of those people on Twitter who think they're woke by being rude and mean to people because hey, they're not responsible for how you choose to react. But that's enough of Alyssa hatred, at least she's funny. I don't think I can talk about the plot too much without spoiling anything, but I will say that I personally found it very suspenseful and well-paced. I was having a bad day when I binge-watched the whole season, but I reacted stronger than usual to the events in this show. Maybe that's because they hit a little close to home, but who the hell cares. This show was good, I recommend it if you liked the first season.

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.
