My Weekend: A Summary In GIFs
Wikia

Weekends are a magical time, in which anything can happen—and “anything” usually does end up happening. One minute you’re sleeping on a blissful morning till noon, and the next you’re vaulting out of bed because “Holy cats, it’s noon and I still have so much homework,” but then that night you’re happily watching a movie with your roomies, settling down for the night, and then suddenly someone’s dragging you on a midnight hunt for Pokémon—and I think you get the picture.

My weekend was filled with lots of good things—and weird things, and awkward things, and some plain frustrating things. But rather than try to explain in words, I think it’s better if I show you.

So I had a paper due Friday, that I hadn’t started… well, Thursday night, naturally. So this is actually footage of me an hour before the deadline Friday afternoon.

I managed to finish it and handed it in just in time, which is literally the best feeling in the world.

Saturday was a good day to get work done—especially since my art professor had assigned a massive drawing project, which felt like:

Ouch. At first, I was feeling really productive, really creative.

But then towards the end I really just wanted to get it done.

And I still haven’t finished. Because I started reading fanfiction—a little too much fanfiction, with a little too much… heat.

Yeah. And then, instead of returning to work like a responsible student, I watched Les Miserables, which made me feel like:

But also made me run around the apartment like this for the rest of the day:

And then my director emailed me, wanting to meet with me Monday morning, which led me to ponder what he wanted with me that he couldn’t just tell me through email.

And then I realized how painful waiting was as it was only Saturday and I had this question to nag at me for two whole days.

Oh, and my roommate’s boyfriend had come to visit, so they were all cuddly.

And I was left alone.

But just kidding, because they’re really sweet and my roommate deserves all the happiness. But then I began to worry about my director’s email again.

I didn’t have long for my thoughts, however, because we had company over. Hooray?

Which led to a game of Cards Against Humanity, which always leads to fun conversation such as:

Sunday was a day for French homework.

And more tragic waiting till Monday’s appointment.

And a cute girl texted me compliments? I just, what? I was blown away?

And I actually worked out, which is frankly astounding. I felt… pretty good? No. No, I didn’t, I felt dead.

But it doesn’t matter because, really, I have a bed to fall into at the end of the day, and that makes it all worth it.

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.
