Megan Takes on Siena

Meet Megan: One of my hallway neighbors, beloved Bonners, and best friends here at Siena. We're practically inseparable, and being name twins has definitely helped to solidify our fast friendship. It can get a little confusing - it's a struggle when close friends respond to the same name - but I'm so blessed to have this beautiful human being by my side. We decided to take time to interview each other and find out what we love about our second home, Siena.

1) Describe Siena in five words:

Home, beautiful, cozy, lively, and saintly (haha).

2) What's your favorite spot on campus?

The Grotto and Casey's. Ten out of ten, would recommend.

3) Favorite gelato flavor from Saga?

Graham Cracker with graham crackers and chocolate chips on top.

4) What extracurriculars are you involved in?

The Bonner Program and Praise and Worship; I also recently joined Italian Club.

5) Saga's wraps or Casey's wraps?

Casey's. Is that even a question?

6) Favorite place to study?

Casey's, even though work rarely gets done there.

7) How do you stay organized/sane?

Google Calendar is God's gift to me as a college student.

8) Favorite memory so far?

I've enjoyed going on mini-adventures around campus, exploring Albany with friends, and learning that I am terrible at ping-pong. Taste-testing the majority of menu items at Starbucks has also been an absolute blast.

9) Favorite campus activity?

Praise and Worship on Wednesday nights and 7pm mass on Sundays are a blessing.

10) Advice you would give to a current high school senior?

I would tell a current high school senior that, yes, college can be stressful, but it will give you some of the best memories and some really spectacular people who are going to be there for you through it all. You'll adjust in no time, so don't worry, and you will most certainty grow and learn more about who you are. Make sure to enjoy every moment of your last year of high school, but also get excited for this wonderful new chapter in your life that's approaching.

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.
