Thank you. Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU.

I could type that again and again, and it still wouldn't be enough words to describe how thankful I am for you and all you've done this past year and a half. This goes to two people, who know who they are, who have been lights of my life during my life at Villanova. College and being an adult is stupid hard, and there's no way around that. It's one heck of a transition, and I wouldn't have made it without you. Late night talks, venting sessions, movie nights, snack dates, and so much more all helped make my experience part of "the best four years" of my life.

There have been ups and downs for sure, but, without fail, I knew I could turn to you. We've laughed and cried, but being the beautiful person that you are, inside and out, you've been a constant in a time when things are anything but. To Thing 1 ;), I love to be your Baymax, and your literal perfection always brings a smile to my face. You're not afraid to call me on my bs, and it keeps me from trying to be something I'm not. I feel happy and confident to be myself. Whether we are going on random walks or laughing over how weird boys are, there's never a dull moment when I'm with you. Also, believe it or not, you've taught me to walk faster, and that's one heck of an accomplishment.

Your patience with my scatterbrained self is astounding, and I wouldn't want to DM instagram memes to anyone else. To Thing 2, we've gotten infinitely closer in the last year, and, honestly, thank God. As we've proudly coined, "why sip tea when you can chug Rose?", I know I can turn to you with ANYTHING. You're a light not only to me but to so many others. You couldn't be a bad friend if you tried, and, no matter what anyone says, remember that. Even though you can't watch a Harry Potter movie without saying every word, I still love you. You're such an old soul, and you could high key be president one day, so remember me when you've taken over. You really are one-of-a-kind.

You two always know the right thing to say to me, whether it's being my hype woman or telling me a painful truth. I truly wish I could put into words just how much you two have done for me (and my sanity). Thanks for taking in my weird southern self and always encouraging me to be unapologetically myself. You're both incredibly loving and brilliant women, and I can't wait to see all the amazing things you've still to do. I may tell you tons, but it will never be enough to truly express how much you mean to me:

I LOVE YOU <3

~ME :)

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.
