True Life: I'm Addicted To Candy Crush

I have an addiction to Candy Crush, whenever I am bored or have nothing to do (even sometimes when I do have something else to do) you can find me staring at my phone crushing candies. I get made fun of a lot for the fact I'm on a level in the 600's. But I know I'm not alone out here.

1. Your phone is usually almost dead from playing so much.

Candy crush is a complete battery killer. After you use up your 5 lives you've also used about about 20% of your battery.

2. You have had dreams where all you see are candies.

I always see good moves I should make or mistakes that ruin a level. This is sad and how I know I have an addiction to this fun yet awful game.

3. Your friends constantly make fun of you.

Everyone tells you that you "have no life" which is not wrong. When all you do is sit around and stare at your phone trying to match candies to each other you definitely don't have a life and there are so many better things you could be doing with your time.

4. Your friends are also interested in how far you can get.

While they don't support you it does amuse your peers to know that you are past level 600 in a game that you play all the time. While they probably think you are a loser at least you're good at it.

5. You hate the game but you can't stop playing.

You get stuck on one level for a week at a time and the game just isn't fun anymore. But there is no way you are going to give up now, you have made it so far and even though the game actually sucks there is no way you are stopping until you have beat every level.

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.
