With the school year quickly coming to a close, I thought it would be the perfect time to explain how freshmen year ending has me feeling. Let me tell you, so many feels. The main feeling is amazement that I actually survived my first year of college.

There is so much to pack

College is supposed to become your home for the nine months your there, and let me tell you I have made myself quite comfortable in my dorm room. I have so much stuff that I honestly still don't know how I fit in my room. I have so much crap, but don't worry... I'm just gonna start packing a day before I leave.

SO much has happened this past year.

There have been highs and lows. College is a rollercoaster. Honestly, all I can say: "Gurl."

Wow, I actually made friends that I am going to miss.

Yas girl you go! Everyone's biggest fear coming into college is that they won't make any friends. But, I did it! Yay... but now I have to say goodbye to them.

Finals Suck.

Amidst all the feelings being felt about the year coming to an end, I still have to worry about the work that I am currently drowning in. So that's fun.

I never want to leave.

I never thought a place so far away from my actual home would ever feel like home. But, campus has become my second home. And now I'm one year closer to graduation. That thought is absolutely terrifying.

BUT super excited for my own bed and shower.

While I am sad to leave my second home, there is nothing like a hug from your mom and taking a shower without wearing shoes. Oh, and real food!!

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.
