1. We do NOT want the whole flowers, chocolates, and dinner ordeal.

We don't want the whole stereotypical day. Most likely, we've had ENOUGH of those with guys that just broke our hearts, so the story got old quickly. Maybe shoot for a more original plan?

2. Maybe just don't take us out in public. Period.

If there's anything we hate more than Valentine's day, it's watching other people celebrate it. It's kind of disgusting to us when we see girls with arms full of flowers and teddy bears from guys who got the same gifts for three other girls. Overrated.

3. We like low-key things.


Don't get me wrong. we still can appreciate romance, but we like it a lot more low-key. Cooking a dinner at home, camping out in the living oom, or even just a movie night will suffice.

4.   Sappy cards are acceptable.

While the entire holiday was Hallmark's way of generating revenue, we can still appreciate a good, old-fashioned, sappy card. It's like a modern-day love letter, right?

5. Basically, it's not that we actually hate the holiday, but we just think it's overrated.


It's not our thing to be around hundreds of other couples sucking face. While we can appreciate noble romantic gesture, we are also easily pleased. To us, Valentine's Day is every day because we feel that we don't need to reserve our love for one day of the year.

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?
