1. Being Late

Never ever ever make a us late. If you're early you're on time. If you're on time you're late. If you're late you better hope you aren't.

2. Last minute changes

Our days are planned out down to the very last second of the day. We don't have time for last minute changes.

3. Having to rely on other people

We're quite alright with doing things ourselves and probably prefer it to be that way.

4. SLOW WALKERS

We don't have time to get caught by anything moving slower than we are. Odds are we're rushing to our next event.

5. When classes/meetings/events go long and throw our schedules off

We'll try to sit there and act like everything is fine when inside we're really dying to get up and leave because we can't be late to our next event. (Refer to #1 and #2)

6. When people start to turn their tests in before us and we still have a long way to go

How are people done already?! I haven't even hit the halfway point! We will forever suffer from test anxiety.

7. When people don’t respond to a text/email right away

Odds are we need that question answered or a response is needed right away so the real question we ask when you don't respond is is WHERE ARE YOU?!

8. Waiting on our friends to make plans

We feel more and more irritated and anxious as each minute goes by. We really do not like to waste a single second of our day. But don't worry, we'll be ready to go as soon as you are!

9. When we feel like we aren’t being heard

We definitely have an opinion on whatever you're talking about and we always have a story to tell and if we feel like nobody is listening we want to scream!

10. Dealing with incompetence

What do you mean you don't understand or that you couldn't get that task done? This is one of our many flaws but that's how we work.

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.

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.
