Being a Chicago White Sox fan in a sea of Chicago Cubs fans might be a little discouraging, and slightly uncomfortable, but here's a few things that you can always remind yourself:

1. Who would openly choose to wear red and blue? White and black is such a slick color combo.

2. We won the World Series in 2005, 1917, and 1906, where as the Cubs only won in 1907 and 1908

3. The Cubs have one of the highest priced beer in the MLB; the Cubs $7.75 vs the Sox $6.50, I know which one I'll choose

4. We still know who was on the 2005 team. How many Cubs fans can list off the 1908 team?

5. We may be out numbered, but we still always remain loyal

6. One word, tailgating. Sox fans truly know this art.

7. Sure, they have Rizzo, but we have Chris Sale

8. You can have Wrigleyville, we have the whole "Sox-side" anyways

9. Our "theme nights" are greater then any other

10. Our mascot is something like no other. Who doesn't love our green fluff ball, South Paw?

Just keep your head up Sox fans, our day will come again. At least we've won the World Series this century. GO SOX!

Taylor Swift's Eras Tour is What I Hope Heaven Feels Like

By: James McDonald

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

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.
