Vaseline, the strongest moisturizer to bust dry skin, is the best thing since sliced bread. My mom's obsession has been passed down to me ever since she started using the gentle skin therapy on my precious newborn baby skin. Skin is our largest organ of the human body and must be taken care of as such! I remember watching my mom spend our nights smearing pounds of vaseline on her winter-dry hands to ensure baby soft hands in the morning.

I've been hooked since then.

1. How cute are these baby Vaselines?!

Portable Vaseline! My dream come true.

2. The excitement when Vaseline Intense Care Body Lotion came out

My roommate showed me this scrumptious smelling lotion—Cocoa Radiant body lotion—and, I swear, your skin not only glows, but you want to lick it off it smells so good. Don't judge me until you've used it.

3. The tinted lip is literally the only lip balm I'll ever use

Sorry, Kylie, but your lip kit isn't for me. I'm more than fulfilled with my Vaseline rosy lips.

4. The plethora of uses

It's a miracle worker for almost anything! I swear it's magic. Vaseline's use is more valuable than just what it's advertised for.

5. Vaseline + SPF = mindblown

Yes, you heard it right! There are Vaseline products with SPF! Skincare, here I come!

6. How much Vaseline would it take to fill a bathtub?

Just asking for a friend.

7. Profession: Vaseline hoarder

Hi, my name is Jennifer Kustanovich and I have bottles of Vaseline in my car, under my bed, in my pocket, in my bag, and by this time I wouldn't be surprised if bottles fall out as I walk by.

8. I've consumed a ton of it. Will I die?

Okay, but what is Vaseline? Petroleum jelly doesn't sound like something I want to rub all over myself, but yet I do it anyway. Any doctors or pre-med students to help me with this dilemma? I don't want to end up on TLC's "My Strange Addictions" where my friends drag me to a doctor who tells me that I've been licking, eating, and slathering poison.

For your information, I don't eat the product; but when it's on my lips all day, it's bound to be unintentionally ingested.

10. Jennifer Aniston has the same obsession

Jennifer Aniston. Need I say more? Her porcelain wrinkle-free face is all due to the works of Vaseline.

11. Beauty insider tip: Vaseline is natural mascara

Beyonce is even behind this trick: spread a dollop of the magic on your lashes in the morning/night and watch the sorcery for yourself.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

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?
