The Top 8 Shoppers You Ran Into On Black Friday This Year
Here it is everyone, the list of this Black Fridays deadliest predators. I went to Woodbury Commons outlet mall and barely made it out alive with all these shoppers around me. Take a look and see if you spotted any! 
The Pusher
Yeah okay LADY I get it you want 70% off of those sweaters, SO DO I - SO CALM THE LOVE DOWN. The pusher, a species so unlike any other, preys upon those around them by pushing and shoving. Trust me though, pushing will get you NOWHERE. Plus like really, I am still full from Thanksgiving. If you push me I am probably just going to fall on you.

The Hoarder
This is the lovely individual who runs into the store and grabs everything left and right without even looking. Had your eye on that cute dress? Whoops sorry it's been taken by the hoarder. What about that fishing pole? Those rain boots? The Xbox? It's gone, baby gone, the love is gone.

The Rude One
If Black Friday shopping was a reality show (IT REALLY SHOULD BE I WOULD WATCH IT FOR DAYS), this shopper would definitely be voted off the island first. Yeah buddy, we all have been waiting an hour in this line to the UGG store. Doesn't mean you can start being mean to the security guards and employees. Not cool man, not cool.

The Clueless
I call this shopper Bambi. Standing around in the middle of the store, completely clueless- Bambi is the poor soul who gets trampled on by the likes of the pusher and the rude one. This shopper, bless their soul, is the one who really doesn't know what they are doing or why they are there. Otherwise known as the boyfriend, husband or dad.

The Groper

This Black Friday season we bring you the groperrrrrrrr. They lurk in and out of the nooks and crannies of stores, waiting for the opportune moment. You might think I'm stretching this one a bit, but take it from my housemates own personal experience, "he bumped into me and said sorry while grabbing my chest." Watch out ya'll.

The Hyperactive

So this is Bambi's counterpart. This shopper can go 0 to 60 in half a second if a good deal is spotted. Best to stay clear of this one unless you want to wind up head first in a pile of clothes on the floor.

The Mom
Okay so I won't say anything bad about this shopper because being a mom is probably the hardest job in the world. But people- Do. Not. Mess. With. Her. This is the shopper with coupons and discounts in her eyes. She is the one to somehow find a way to spend way less than you did for far more than you bought. So be cautious of The Moms, be very cautious.

The Foreigners
America is the land of the free, the home of the brave and the hub of big sales. Of course I understand people coming from all around the world to shop their lives away. HOWEVER, no disrespect whatsoever, but these shoppers can go a bit over board. With their three kids, grandparents, nanny and dog- you'd think they're moving. Don't forget about the suitcases they bring in tow cause you just might, like yours truly, end up tripping over them. 

One of the key things to remember about Black Friday is that we are all in this together, a sale for one is a sale for all. Hope you didn't run into too many of these characters this weekend (groper) and had a great, safe and shopping bag filled Black Friday!

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.
