When In Doubt, Wine It Out

We all have those times when we need wine—even if it's every day.

If you don’t love wine, this probably isn’t the right article for you.

The crazier my life is becoming, the more I realize how much I love wine. I mean, how can you argue that? Here are a few reasons why wine has become the real number one in my life.

Wine will never say no to you.

You can fight with your family, you can fight with your friends, and you can fight with your spouse. Fortunately, wine will never say no to you. Wine will always be there for you if you have it (but let’s be honest, who doesn’t stay stocked up on wine?).

Wine will never make you feel awful.

Wine will make you feel great. Very great. We may need another bottle (or four).


Wine is healthy, right?

I mean, wine is made from grapes.

Grapes are fruit.

Fruit is healthy.

Therefore, wine is healthy. Congratulations, you can still diet while getting drunk.


Wine will never make you feel bloated.

Beer, fattening. Vodka, I’m all set with puking my night away. Tequila? I’d rather keep my clothes on. Do you have any Franzia?

Wine doesn’t require any mixers.

As much as I love doing the 50/50 with vodka and whatever type of soda I can find that would match the taste of my alcohol, I’ll stick to my Sunset Blush.

Wine is the perfect excuse for getting together with the girls.

Name a girl who doesn’t like wine; I dare you.

Having a glass of wine is the perfect invitation to get together with your friends to unwind at the end of the week (or the middle of the week, if you’re like me). Everyone is willing to go, especially if there is Barefoot involved.

Wine doesn’t cost you your entire paycheck.

Whether it’s a $6 bottle or an $18 box, there’s so many options! Being a poor college student limits my options, but fortunately for me, not my taste buds. Grab me one of the Black Boxes, although I prefer a glass of Moscato.

Wine can exercise your body, right?

“Who wants to slap the bag?”

I don’t know about you, but I’d skip arm day at the gym any day if I know a bag of wine is involved.

Wine will never judge you negatively.

You like Chardonnay? Nostalgia at its finest. You do you.

Rosé? This is the wine equivalent to "Ned’s Declassified School Survival Guide." It’s the intro wine everybody tries first, regardless of your age.

Boxed Wine = every college girl's dream. Peace, Love, Franny.

Last but certainly not least, you can Netflix and Chill…ed Wine

That is all.

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.
