To My Best Friend's Parents

To my best friend's parents,

This thank you is quite overdue and should of been said years and years ago. Having your daughter in my life has been such a blessing. Her and I are just like sisters and you two are my second set of parents that I can go to if I don't want to go to my actual parents. I know I can always count on you two on anything whether it be a place to crash or keeping a secret. I couldn't imagine my life without your daughter. I am very grateful for everything you have done for me.

Thank you for opening your house with open arms. Throughout high school and the time I am home from college, I am at your house fifty percent of the time. I appreciate the food you have in your house when I am home as well. Thank you for paying for my dinner when I had my own cash and debit card on me in my wallet. I laugh every time I hear that you ask how I am and where I am at when I haven't been over in three days.

Thank your for inviting me to family vacations, holidays, birthdays, and even just simple Saturday night cookouts. I know all of your family like they are my own and get excited when I am able to see them. I know I always have a pool to lounge in during the hot summer days. Thank you for treating me like one of your own. You are not afraid to speak your mind and I would like to believe that I am like that. I am not afraid to say something and do not care what others think of me. Thank you for checking up on me from time to time and asking how school and overall life is. There are thousands of things that I can't put into five hundred words.

To my best friend, thank you for everything you have done for me and my family. I love your parents and family and am so happy that I have been able to share the memories that I have with them. I couldn't imagine my life without you being my there when I am down or need someone to get Panera with.

I'll see you all again soon.

Love,

Your second daughter that you got stuck with.

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.
