Why The South Does It Best, As Told By Hart Of Dixie
www.bustle.com

I was born and raised in the south so I might be bias when I say, the south does it best. And, what better way to illustrate my love for the south than "Hart of Dixie".

1. The Weather.

The weather is always perfect in the south. And, you can always count on it to be warmer than the north!

2. Southern Hospitality.

This is something you will only witness in the south. It's when you wave and say "hi" to a stranger, just to be friendly!

3. Sweet Tea.

Everything is sweeter in the south! We do not know the term unsweet tea because sweet tea is the only right way to make it in the south.

4. The Food.

The south invented fried chicken after all!

5. Sports.


All sports are a big deal in the south but football takes the cake! There is nothing that can compare to a southern's undying love for football.

6. The Fashion.

The fashion in the south is unique to say the least. Flannel, blue jeans, and cowboy boots is the standard in the south.

7. Country Music.

Country music is the anthem of the south.

8. Porch Sitting.

In the south, people like to enjoy the nice days that we are blessed with so what better way to do that? By sitting on your porch and watching the day go by.

9. The phrase "y'all".

That phrase is a key factor in living in the south. If you don't have that in your vocabulary, then are you really from the south?

10. Friends are Family

The coolest thing about living in the south, close friends are considered family. If you are friends with someone five or more years, you are usually "adopted" into the family.

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.
