To the girl who is always trying to change him...

You can't.

I know that is hard to hear, but no matter how hard you try you cannot change that boy. You cannot make him want you. You cannot make him love you. You cannot make him into somebody you want him to be. He is who he is, and you are who you are. That boy is someone who doesn't realize how good you are; for that boy is someone who will never be good enough for you. That boy doesn't understand you, or why you feel the way you do. He doesn't get why you cry yourself to sleep at night, knowing he's speaking to other girls. He doesn't care he is breaking your heart when he doesn't let you in. He doesn't understand that he's all you wanted. But, is he really all you wanted? Maybe this boy is just a beautiful thought. You are trying to mold an imperfect and flawed human into someone you wish they were. You're so sick of searching for the right one, that you try to change those who are at reach. A boy that cannot be changed. You have so much hope in your heart that maybe, just maybe one day this boy will be the boy you want him to be.

To the girl who is always trying to change him, you deserve better. You don't need to try and change someone to get the love you undoubtedly need and deserve. You should never have to try and make a boy treat you the way you should be treated. Stop sticking around in hopes for that boy will change. He never will. Instead of trying to change that boy, search for the one who doesn't need to change. The boy who will love you for you who are, respect you, and that will never allow a tear slip from those pretty eyes. You are much smarter, beautiful, and important than the boy who made you feel anything less than that.

You deserve more than the boy who cannot be changed.

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.
