When You Know It's Time To Move On
huffington

You moved on, so now it's my turn. Never thought I would be able to do it, even with the horrible things you have done to me, but I can finally now say that I have no ties to you anymore after all of this time. And for those who believe this is about a certain person, it is not. It is for anyone that has burned me in my life, or made me think that I could not do or be better, even though everyone good in my life told me that I could. I did not deserve what you brought to the table, which was really not much if we are being honest here.

I believe them all now, I can do better, so much better. My gosh ,why did I never realize this months ago? Because I have moved on from ones like you, and you, and even you before. Every single day I am growing, and everyday I become a stronger version of the person I was yesterday. So this is a goodbye to you for now, and time for me to go back to the person I was before, the person that was not trying to make excuses for why I put up with you. I do not hate you, not at all actually. I do hate the person I was when we were in contact, unfortunately. Sometimes you do not realize how bad someone is for your life and well-being at the moment, because you are so blinded by the person you thought they were. Guess I should actually thank you for showing me what I do not deserve, and what not to put up with next time someone new comes into my life.

So for all of you thinking that you can not move on from that person; whether it be an ex, a close friend, someone you had slight feelings for, or just someone who burned you so bad that you actually are not able to forgive them, you can, and you need to in order to get on with your life. Life is too important, and you are too important to be giving anyone like this the time of day, or even let them be a small thought that crosses your mind and ruins your mood. But you need to just leave that person in the past, and realize that in a years time, all they will be is a distant memory, and a memory that you were able to learn from and grow as a human being. Trust me, you will be happier. It is time to take my own advice. It is time to move on, it is time to move the hell on. I am already a happier person because of it and I promise, for anyone this applies to, you will be a happier person too.

You burned me so badly, but that made me who I am right now, and I am done with you. So you can go and do your thing, I'm gonna go and live my life like I should have done a long, long time ago, see ya never!

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.

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