What does it mean to have a big brother? Having an older sibling, especially a brother, means being spoiled, abundantly tough-LOVED, and leaves you feeling like a princess!

1. Spoiled

Being a younger sister to your brother means him surprising you with your favorite candy when he comes home from the supermarket or reading the "last" bedtime story at night. It means him spending his all of his saved up tickets from Mr. Gatti's Pizza to win the blow-up chair that you wanted. Just face it, your expectations are incredibly high after your brother shows you just how a guy should treat you.

2. Tough-LOVED

Of course, he loves you, he just has to express it in a bone-cracking hug or tickles that almost make you pee all over the floor. A big brother NEVER lets his sister get called a "sissy." He makes sure that she can tough out anything. This means putting up a fight in an arm wrestling match or learning how to perfect that spiral on a football.

3. Feeling Like a Princess

Having an older brother makes a little girl feel like a princess! When he brings a girlfriend home, guess who REALLY has the say-so if she stays? That's right- THE PRINCESS. If you're ever in need, he'll drop everything no matter the circumstances to help you out! A big brother is the BEST kind of sibling. (no bias thoughts intended)

If You Are A Little Sister, cherish your brother. The two of you may argue every now and then, but in the end, he really has your back, Brothers are treasures.

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.
