Tomorrow Is A New Day

In This Article:

These past two weeks have been a world wind to say the least. Life has been hard and it is difficult to put a smile on your face when it feels like everything is out to get you. Last week I crushed my computer screen and did not do too great on one of my accounting tests. That was extremely difficult for me because I was not expecting for those two things to happen and they both took a hot minute to wrap my head around and move on from. But at the end of each night I would read my bible and study my devotion and pray to God and He kept saying to me “Ellie tomorrow is a new day". And that's correct- tomorrow is a new day where you can either wallow in your sorrows are you can get up and make it a good day. Last week did not get any better....I woke up late for my accounting class and as I was jogging to class my knee gave up and I fell down a hill and then as if it could not get worse, it started to rain on me. As I was walking into class I knew something was not right with my knee so I asked my mom if we could go get it checked out when I was home this past weekend. She agreed but the news we got was something that I prayed I would never hear again- I had retorn my ACL. I immediately was in shock and I thought I myself how did this happen? I was just jogging to class. Needless to say I stayed in my bed for the rest of the day deep in my feelings and watching tik tok till dinner. That night when I was reading my bible and studying my devotional, I was reminded of what God had told me the previous week “Tomorrow is a new day". That is what is getting me through this season in my life-leave everything in the past because there is no point dwelling on the negatives when you could be making positive memories instead. Choose happiness 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.
