Halsey is one of my favorite artists that has come into the spotlight, especially with her newest album Hopeless Fountain Kingdom. Here are 5 of her best songs.

1. Gasoline/Control

Gasoline is a song that sounds like it should be in a movie like The Hunger Games or Divergent, meaning that the lyrics of the song have almost a dystopian feel to it. Halsey even based her album “BADLANDS” on a dystopian world. As soon as Gasoline ends it goes right into Control, a dark more intense song off the album talking about the demons in her head.

2. Is There Somewhere

Is There Somewhere is a heart-wrenching song about falling in love with someone who doesn’t love you back. And you really weren’t supposed to fall in love with them, it was just supposed to be a casual thing, because they “love someone else”.

3. Devil in Me / Hopeless

Devil in Me is a desperate cry for help. “I don't wanna wake it up, I don't wanna wake it up, I don't wanna wake it up, The devil in me” she doesn't want to wake up the demons in her, she doesn't want to wake them up and have them take over her body and have them come out. By the end of the song she's saying “Now I gotta wake it up, now I gotta wake it up, now I gotta wake it up, the devil in me” and she can’t help it. She has to let it out. Hopeless closes out her sophomore album, featuring Cashmere Cat to give a electro-pop vibe to it, the song is another heart wrenching song about heartbreak but hoping that the future will hold something different

4. Roman Holiday

Roman Holiday is an upbeat song about love, and just getting away from life at that moment. And in that moment you only have each other and the world is all yours.

5. Now Or Never

Now or Never is one of the more well known Halsey songs. It was her first single off her new album Hopeless Fountain Kingdom and one of her best songs to date. In this song Halsey is basically saying “You have to love me either right now, or not at all.” She’s giving her lover a decision, now or never.

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.

It's easier than you think.

"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.

Here is a few signs that you may live in the library, whether you'd like to admit it or not.
