An Accurate Timeline Of Your Emotions Before, During, And After Bid Day

It's no secret that in Bid Day is basically Christmas in August for any sorority girl. But it's also probably one of the most emotionally diverse and draining times of the year. Here is a timeline to help you cope with all of the feelings you undoubtedly feel before, during, and after bid day:

Waking up at 3 A.M. and struggling to find your phone to check the bid day list...

Seeing your rush crush's name isn't on the bid day list...

Then seeing the girl you preffed's name is!

Getting ready for bid day after less than three hours of sleep...

But getting it together and walking into the bid day venue with your gals like...

Waiting for the new PC to arrive at the venue...

Seeing your bid day buddy for the first time...

Showing her off to all of your friends...

When things get real and you find a potential future little/Glittle/GGlittle ...


Having to say goodbye to the cutest new PC ever...

Then realizing they'll be around for the entire year...

Coming back to the house and immediately being riddled with post-bid day depression...

Remembering that you actually came to this university for school, not Greek life, and that you have class tomorrow...

But also realizing you get to experience your new perfect PC's syllabus week with them...

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.

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?
