We've enjoyed the hot weather now lets get ready for fall.

Goodbye Summer, Hello Fall

It's the second week of August, and we are all wondering where the time has gone. Fall is slowly approaching as summer of 2016 quickly comes to it's end. I'm sure, like me, many people are pretty bummed out at the fact that they did nothing they wanted to.

But, hey, we still got to hang out with some amazing friends from home...

Though all we did is go to the beach.

We all had to work most of our summer away...

...But I sure bet we were all like Mr. Krabs when it was payday.

We got to spent some "quality" time with our families...

...And not get to be the basic festival-goers.

We didn't get in shape like we planned to.

Instead we ate ice cream in air-conditioned rooms (the better option) telling ourselves we'll start next week...

And now it's already August.

Spent a lot of time wishing to go back to school and acting like this every time you thought of it...

...But not realizing that meant getting up early to go to that 8 a.m. you thought was a good idea.

Just thinking about packing all our things again makes us want to scream...

...And buying all our school things and books feels like this

But we sure can't wait till Saturday football game!

And OMG! Sweater and hot chocolate weather!

(What Sweater weather actually looks like)

And everything pumpkin!

Though we all have our own summer stories to tell when we go back to school in the fall. We can relate to how most of our summers went. And being that it will be Fall in less than a month, I know we are all excited to be back with our friends from school and to enjoy the fall while it lasts — because most people like me hate the winter!

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