What Your Favorite Season Says About You?

Everyone has that one season that they look forward to each year. You count down the days until it arrives and hope it will last forever, only to feel the disappointment at the initial change in temperature or other indicators. Sit back and picture your favorite season. What colors come to mind? What activities take place? What animals are around and what plants are growing? What kind of mood do these factors put you in? The seasonal favorite of each person can say a lot about them.      

Spring 

You who love the feeling of things coming back to life after a long slumbering winter. You love to feel the days getting longer again and flowers beginning to blossom. You enjoy pastel colors and the gentleness of nature starting its cycle over again, and you are ready to spend more time outside and shed that heavy winter clothing. If this is you, you are a spring person. Spring people are said to be patient and carefree. They are more relaxed and enjoy being still and taking it all in. It doesn’t take much to make a spring person smile and their moods can brighten a room.      

Summer

You count down the days until school and learning can be put on hold. You can’t wait to dig into the sand and plant yourself on a beach not to be disturbed until fall rolls around. You live by the sun and think that the only attire necessary is a bathing suit and flip-flops. You want to explore the outdoors and get lost with no plans. Summer people tend to be more outgoing and wild. They chase the party scene and love the life of no responsibilities. The idea of school is unappealing and they are always in search of a good time, especially one that involves great weather.  

Fall

You get excited to wake up to the sun rising a little earlier and feel the crispness of the temperature starting to drop. You love dressing a little warmer and getting a little cozy. You enjoy the return of football and the beginning of another hopeful school year. Fall is for those who could drive all day admiring the changing colors of the leaves and the way the sun illuminates the autumn foliage. Fall tends to appeal to risk takers. It is a time of uncertainty when it comes to weather, and for those who enjoy waking up to different temperatures every day, it is perfect. They are very go-with-the-flow type people and get excited to explore new things.      

Winter

Winter is for those who are all about the holidays. You are content with a fuzzy blanket and a good book. You are less likely to desire to be outdoors, though may enjoy the scenery of it all the more. You value a hot mug of coffee and the slow pace of of winter. People who favor winter tend to be more quiet. They are more thoughtful and calm. They prefer to listen, rather than to speak, and enjoy a good story.     

Seasons are individual and each season has a different personality to fit with. When combined, they make up a wonderfully diverse unit, but when separated and examined, seasons each have an exciting and enriching story to tell, just like us.

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.
