The Third Floor Of Ablah Library Is A Very Special Place

Welcome to the Third Floor of Ablah Library. Here you will find a bunch of books most people will never touch, an abundance of study rooms, and plenty of tables to work on your homework. It is also the quiet zone. YOU DO NOT TALK HERE! This is not the place to come with your friends and chat. It is not the place to talk on the phone with your mom. It's definitely not the place for you to be watching youtube and Netflix without headphones. This is the quiet zone. If you absolutely must talk, get a study room. They're free. Seriously, just call and make a reservation. Telephone anxiety? There's an online application! Not computer savvy? Come in person and talk to someone at the desk. It's really easy! I have rented rooms for skype and telephone interviews. I've had classes in them. And the third floor is just a great place to hide from the world for a little while.

I mention this wonderful, wonderful place because ALL Y'ALL ARE TALKING ON THE THIRD FLOOR!!! Y'ALL NEED TO STOP! Seriously. You walk up the stairs and there's a SIGN that says "QUIET ZONE!" Y'all are in college! You should know how to read and also how to just sit down and shut up. There are people working, crying over homework, and sleeping off the stress. Just chill when you come to the third floor. Leave all the other shit for downstairs. Please. Let me and my comrades do our final papers and cry over them. Or join us in our silent sobbing and working. But pick one. Don't try to bring the downstairs drama to the third floor. We appreciate it. Thank you.

Taylor Swift's Eras Tour is What I Hope Heaven Feels Like

By: James McDonald

Taylor Swift in orange dress playing a moss-covered piano on stage with bright lights.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

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.

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.

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?
