The new season of "Twin Peaks" premiered on Showtime on Sunday after a 25-year break. "Twin Peaks" is my favorite show of all time, and it is also directed by my favorite director David Lynch. I found out about the show about four years ago and have been in love with it ever since. The show tells the story about the investigation of the murder of a small town's homecoming queen, Laura Palmer. It's creepy and strange, but there is something beautiful and mesmerizing about it. As an aspiring film director, there are so many aspects of the show that I love and appreciate. The cinematography is amazing, the characters are all well developed and the dialogue is very well written. One of my favorite aspects of the show is the soundtrack. The soundtrack to the first two seasons of "Twin Peaks" featured music by singer Julee Cruise and an original score by Angelo Badalamenti. In part two of last night's episode, the band Chromatic performed their song "Shadow" in the final scene. The songs selected for the show are slow, dreamy and have a 50's rock vibe. I was so stoked to see that "Shadow" was chosen for the new soundtrack because I believe it is a perfect fit for the show. I'm very eager to see what other songs are going to be selected for the new soundtrack. If I had it my way, these are five songs I would love to see featured on the new season's soundtrack:

1. "Candy Girl" - Trailer Trash Traceys

2. "You Know What I Mean" - Cults


3. "Beyond Love" - Beach House


4. "Nothing's Gonna Hurt You Baby" - Cigarettes After Sex


5. "When the Sun Hits"- Slowdive


6. "Don't Fall in Love"- Still Corners


7. "Run Mascara, Run" - The Raveonettes


8. "Night Time, My Time" - Sky Ferreira


9. "Into Black" - Blouse


10. "Glory Box"- Portishead


11. "The Best Thing" - Electric Youth


12. "Not a Friend" - Cat's Eyes


13. "Superstar" - Sonic Youth


Be sure to tune in and watch Part Three of "Twin Peaks" next Sunday on Showtime at 9 P.M! If you haven't started "Twin Peaks" but are interested, the first two seasons can be found on Netflix.

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?

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. Here is a few signs that you may live in the library, whether you'd like to admit it or not.
