When You Have A Bad Day

Last week really sucked; I was exhausted, stressed, a little sick, and the results of the election didn't help. I started to write a political piece but realized I didn't want to. Plenty of people have already published what I have been thinking. I've written enough articles about how burned out I am over school work, and writing about time management skills would be a little hypocritical at this point. As I mulled over about what to write about, I thought about one of the few happy moments from my week. On Thursday, I got to hold a puppy. It fell asleep in my arms (which almost brought me to tears), and for those few minutes, I was insanely happy. My spirits were lifted for a few hours (until my Internet went out the night before a paper was due), and I forgot all about how terrible my week had been going. So, to everyone having a bad day or a bad week, here are some puppies.

1. Same, puppy. Same.

This is how I felt all week, but I have a feeling this puppy looks a lot cuter than I did.

2. Puddle puppy

LOOK AT IT.

3. Puppy in a cup

"Puppy.... in a.... cup" *cries*

4. Dalmatian puppy

I would like 101 of these, please.

5. Christmas puppy

Can you imagine waking up to this sleeping under the tree?

6. Teddy bear puppy

I just fell in love so fast.

7. Basset Hound puppy

Those ears...

8. Overwhelmed puppy

Getting used to that guide dog harness is hard.

9. Excited puppy

It looks so happy.

10. Sleepy puppy

So precious.

11. Puppy with a friend

My heart.

12. Puppy with a stick

I feel so proud.

13. Multiple puppies

What's better than one puppy? Five puppies.

14. Puppy on a walk

Places to go, people to see.

15. Corgi puppy

Wow, my mood is so much better now.

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.

It's easier than you think.

"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.
