A prank or two is always fun on April Fool's! Here's five to choose from.

1. Sugar and spice (or is it salt?)

A classic April Fool's prank is to swap out the sugar and the salt. That means putting sugar in the salt shaker, and adding salt to people's coffee. Assuming your friends and coworkers aren't too serious about their coffee, it should be a pretty fun prank.

2. Balloons galore!

Fill someone's room with balloons of every color! The clean up might take a little bit, but who doesn't love balloons anyway? Just remember to check if they have a latex allergy first.

3. Soap with no suds

This one is easy! Take a bar of soap and coat it with some clear nail polish, and voila! It's soap that can never get soapy. Hand it to a friend and watch them struggle.

4. Push or pull?

A daily struggle one goes through everyday: is this door a push or pull? Trick your friends and coworkers by putting a sign up that advertises the wrong action. Soon they'll be questioning everything: up or down? Left or right? What is what?

5. Don't scream...

Buy a bag of fake insects: roaches, spiders, grasshoppers, the works. Then, hide them in various drawers, couch cushions or even tape them to the inside of a lamp shade. At some point during the day you're likely to hear an earth-shattering scream, and then hopefully some laughter.

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.

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?
