Everyone has things they shouldn't have done or regret doing. We all make mistakes and say/do stupid things we don't mean. I am certainly not an exception. I've messed up things and crossed the line at times so here are some things I am sorry for. I am not going to use names but, you know who you are and whatever I did to you.

・I'm sorry for taking more than one piece of candy even though the sign said "take one" when trick-or-treating.

・I'm sorry for hitting the mailbox with my car.

・I'm sorry for killing your tadpole, because I held it and they need to be in water.

・I'm sorry for hogging the remote.

・I'm sorry for not responding to your snapchat.

・I'm sorry for laughing at inappropriate times.

・I'm sorry for always stealing your light bulbs when one is out in my room.

・I'm sorry for locking you out of my car when you were teaching me how to drive.

・I'm sorry for getting your dog's head stuck in the strap on your backpack.

・I'm sorry for throwing up in your bed.

・I'm sorry for taking blurry pictures.

・I'm sorry for being so needy.

・I'm sorry for always making you drive.

・I'm sorry for America night at beach week.

・I'm sorry for taking your clothes without asking.

・I'm sorry for never paying you back whenever you buy me something and I say I will pay you pack.

・I'm sorry for not thinking before I speak at times.

・I'm sorry for pretending to like lima beans.

・I'm sorry for being asleep when you got locked out of your house and didn't answer my phone.

・I'm sorry for not hanging out with you more.

・I'm sorry I threatened to throw rocks at your head in the third grade.

・I'm sorry for sneaking into that R rated movie before I was 17.

・I'm sorry for being bossy.

・I'm sorry for throwing up in your brand new car.

・I'm sorry for the time I went into a maternity store and pretended my mom was pregnant and had you show me outfits I could get for her.

・I'm sorry for making you ride that roller coaster even though you are afraid of them.

・I'm sorry for getting the balloons stuck in the trees.

・I'm sorry for the 8 billion other things that I have probably done.

Also sorry for all the stupid stuff I am going to do in the future. Everybody messes up and sometimes just apologizing can make all the difference.

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.

It's easier than you think.

Kansas State University

Students walking on a sunny college campus with trees and buildings.

"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.

College without friends is like peanut butter without jelly.

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.

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.
