I hope you love them as much as I do.

To My Best Friends' New Best Friends
Juliana Mitchell

Dear college friends who are now friends with my hometown best friends,

Because I’m hundreds of miles away from my best friends, I can’t always be there for them. So while my friends are at their home away from home, you will be my replacement. First, I feel that I need to tell you about the kind of people they truly are. They are by far the greatest people you will meet in your lifetime, so you should feel lucky to be friends with them. They will make you laugh to the point of crying and cheer you up when you’re feeling down. Throughout all of the bad haircuts, terrible outfit ideas, and just poor life choices in general, they will show no judgement. When you are at your absolute rock bottom, they will be there to pick you up off your feet. No matter what you do to deserve it, they will never be angry with you. They will truly listen to all of your problems and somehow make everything better without trying. Enjoy every moment with them and cherish their friendship, because in a few years you’ll have hundreds of memories and heartfelt stories to look back on.

I hope you go on as many adventures as we did(and not get in trouble by security). I hope you have as many inside jokes and make as many memories with them as I got to. Car jam sessions are a complete must, so be prepared to do lots of those and all-nighters are the absolute best. Trust me, you learn more about them when you’re sleep-deprived at 5 a.m. than months of being friends with them.

Get ready to hear a lot of "Friends" quotes. If you aren’t one already, become a Shonda Rhimes fan, because that’s what we talk about 90% of the time. Also, make sure you go to $5 movie Tuesdays every week, that’s a tradition. Even if there are no good movies out, pick out the trashiest one. You’ll still be quoting it a year later. Always be on your toes. Never be afraid to step outside your comfort zone, because you never know what will happen next with those two. Most importantly, I hope you love them as much as I do. They have changed my life for the absolute better and I hope they do the same for you.

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. For some students, it's their first time in the library all semester, maybe ever. 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.
