Dear Friends,

Although the semester has just started I feel like every second we have is closer to saying goodbye.

As pessimistic as that sounds, I want you to know that I don't regret meeting you, but it hurts to know that we only have a limited time left together.

Our paths have crossed as we are deciding what direction we are going to take as we enter the rest of our lives. I am going to be here for you, whether it be applying to graduate schools, finding an internship, going right into a job or even committing to a relationship. I want to make sure we do more than keep in touch through social media. You are the ones I want to stay close with after college. To the friends I've made who aren't graduating this year, I want you to know, no matter how busy I get, I will make time for you. We don't have years and years of friendship or memories under our belt, but we will have these important moments. I will cherish every remaining day, week and month we have together.

I wish we did have more time together, and that we could have met sooner, but I don't think we would have been as close as we are now. I am a different person than I was my freshman year of college and you were probably a different person before we met. We were meant to meet each other at this point in our lives. Super cliché but, I truly believe, everything happens for a reason. You know me better than anyone else in my past will ever know, because you know the person I have become and will become. Thank you for accepting me for who I am and supporting me through every good and bad decision I make.

So cheers to us, college seniors on the brink of graduation. Cheers to the college debt about to hit us in the face. Cheers to blurry memories made and forgotten. Cheers to the mental breakdowns bound to happen, more than once. Cheers to as many trips to Atlantic City and the bars as possible. Cheers to friendship and love. Cheers to the future and the unknown.

This is our senior year and now we have each other to make those final, unforgettable memories.

" So lets enjoy life today. Yesterday is gone & tomorrow may never come."

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.
