To My Friend As She Falls In Love

Through every guy that didn't work out or treated you like you were nothing I was there..

New love is hard to balance between working, spending time with family, going to school, and to top it all off you have to spend time with your friends too. You're just adding a whole other level to your life. It's not meant to be stressful but sometimes it turns out that way when it's piled on top of everything else in your life. Falling in love with someone is supposed to be one of the greatest feelings when you're young but when you're doing it make sure your eyes are open to how you're treating other people.

Don't get me wrong I'm happy you're finally happy, it's been a long time coming. You've been through so much that it's almost hard to believe sometimes. You deserve a man who's going to love you through every freakout and even when you haven't eaten yet and are a complete you-know-what. I love seeing you smile and I love seeing the sparkle in your eye when you see his name on your phone but I can't help but feel left in the dust.

Through every guy that didn't work out or treated you like you were nothing I was there. I picked up the pieces and tried my best to make everything okay even though I knew you just had to cry it out. And when those tears did come I was the one that held you tight (even though I don't like to be that close to anyone, and you know that) and I'll be the one to do it again if things don't work out here. I know that life is taking us on completely different paths as of late with work, school, and me being almost three hours away and yes that is part of the problem but I feel like I'm the only one trying. I wanna hear about your first day of classes or for you to call me on your way from work like you always used to, but I feel like I'm bothering you.

It breaks my heart to see you distancing yourself from me, whether intentionally or unintentionally. And I hope reading this you see how I feel. I don't expect you to understand what I'm going through or my reasoning behind this piece but I hope you do have time to sit down and think about the way things have changed and how I've been pushed to the side.


I love you, always.

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.
