5 Times You Were/Will Be Nick Miller This Summer

If you've started off your summer without a summer job or internship, it can be a little bit hard to gain the motivation to do anything, but sleep and eat your body weight in white cheddar popcorn. Nick Miller from New Girl feels your motivational pain.

1. Your mom is like, "Maybe you should get a full time job?" And you're like, "Mom, maintaining my social life from this couch is a full-time job." She doesn't understand your groundbreaking contributions to the business world. It's okay.

2. You had no time during the school year to binge watch Scandal, so now is the time! Olivia Pope's pantsuits are not going to admire themselves.

3. With that extra time that you didn't have during the school year, you tell yourself you are going to spend it being healthy and exercising. Yet, you find excuses to do neither of those things, and to maybe only have like eight s'mores at your beach bonfire instead of 18. Baby steps.

4. When you finally realize that your job Netflix-ing on the couch isn't really working for you, financially, you may decide to look for employment elsewhere. So, you start updating your resumé and sending it in to different internships, but you remember that you have only been in school for two years, only taken general education courses. Companies don't really care what you did in high school. I'm sure they will care about that one time I read a book. I also write my own tweets, so...

5. There's that moment when you start getting emails from your fall professors about syllabi and such. I just got my spring professors off my back, and now you want to reel me back into the academic world of stress? No sir, no ma'am; I will not succumb to your peer pressure. You will have my semi-undivided attention in August when I'm sitting in your classroom. Good day!

Do what you have to do to be happy this summer! Take some time to be a couch potato and be the best you possible. Make Nick Miller proud.

Taylor Swift in orange dress playing a moss-covered piano on stage with bright lights.

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.

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?
