12 Types of People During Christmas
Media Timeout

Now that Thanksgiving is over, it is finally completely acceptable to get in the Christmas mood. During this time of year, many types of people emerge. Here are twelve:

1. The guy who hates on everything because it isn't inclusive of all of the holidays. Yeah, but what if I don't celebrate Christmas, " they reply when they see anything that says "Merry Christmas" in public.

2. The one who milks that time of year for all of the deals they can get. These are the ones who know exactly where to shop and when to shop during this deal filled time.

3. The person who plays holiday music wherever they go. Every time they walk in the room without any music, they proceed to complain about it until somebody finally plays "Let it snow."

4. The one who goes overboard, WAY overboard. You can tell exactly who this is because when you pass by their house at night, you might forget that it's night due to all the lights. You can also tell when there is one near you because all you smell is peppermint, gingerbread, and cinnamon.

5. The old person that complains about Christmas being overgeneralized. Yes, this is the one who complains that the Starbucks cups now cater to all religions.

6. The Grinch. Of course this one was going to be on the list. This is the guy who just does not see the joy in this time of year. I don't know what's wrong with him either.

7. The person who gets really lazy. Everybody gets a little lazy around the holiday season when it comes to work, but this is the really lazy guy.

8. The one who won't stop making holiday movie references. I think this guy has every Christmas movie memorized.

9. The one who cannot stop singing carols. This one is almost worse than number 8, they probably are the worst singers you will ever meet. They will also ruin most Christmas songs for you.

10. The perfectionist. This is the one who judges the fairy lights outside your house because there is one light out.

11. The professional chef. My personal favorite, usually a very motherly type person who bakes cookies and makes all kinds of gourmet dishes.

12. The one who procrastinates their present shopping. You'll catch this guy shopping for presents on Christmas day.

We all have a little bit of all of these people in us, but who do you identify with most?

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.

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.
