To My Friends Who I Don't See As Much As I'd Like

I think about you more than you'll ever know.

To My Friends Who I Don't See As Much As I'd Like

Hey, you!

Yeah, you.

I know we don't see each other often, but here's a few things I want you to know:

1. I think about you very often.

Actually, almost every day. I think about you, your family, how you're doing, what you're up to at this very moment, and how I know you're taking life by the horns. Life is so busy, and well, it sucks that college separated us. We can't really talk all the time because we have conflicting schedules. But just know that I'm here, thinking of you! Cheering you on from the sidelines.

2. Life is not the same without you.

Remember seeing each other every day for like six periods straight? And now we don't see each other for months. It really stinks, not going to lie. The people I've met in college are wonderful, but are just not like you. I miss the walks to classes together, the laughs, the anger we shared in classes. Especially the common hatred we shared for teachers. No more study sessions, after school coffees. Trust me, I still go through withdrawals after all this time.

3. Our memories remain safe within me.

I cannot thank you enough for the experience you gave me in high school. YOU are the REASON high school was so great. When I think back at my most memorable moments in high school, you were always in them. Even though we are almost graduating college, I haven't forgotten the great memories we made, and I don't think I ever will. Know that you remain deep in my heart.

4. When we do see each other, it's like none of that time apart mattered.

Just because we don't speak every day, because we can't, doesn't mean the time hurts what we have. We always pick up right where we left off, and it feels like home again. True friends will not be effected by life's inconveniences. True friends and epic friendships endure the worst, but still come out on top- that's why we've remained friends after all this time.

I thank you, for putting in effort into this friendship. I hope we continue to strive to have a wonderful friendship even though life may be just the busiest- too busy for us to keep in touch all the time.

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.
