Life Hack

Life is full of awesome moments and sometimes I think it is hard for people to take a moment to see that. Life can suck sometimes, or most times even, yes, but sometimes, life can surprise us and be totally awesome. (Only sometimes though!) My life has personally been full of difficulties, which is totally normal. The ups have been great and the downs have been, well, downs. As you can see though, I am still here to tell about not only the downs but also the ups in life. As people, we naturally focus on the hardships of life, instead of taking the time to think about all the wonderful things about our lives. Even I often focus too much on the hard parts of my life rather than what is going well for me. To me, it is easy to focus on what is going wrong rather than what is going right, which has been something I have been trying to change but always find myself going back to my old ways. Let’s be honest, life can truly suck sometimes, but sometimes life can surprise us if we choose to let it.

Here are some of life's best work:

1. Being born

Being brought into this world is a pretty special thing and the fact that we got to experience and be a part of that is awesome and not something to take for granted. Life can be really fun but only if you choose that option.

2. Hanging out with your best friends

Having the best of friends can always make for an awesome life. Constantly laughing and having a good time with some of your closest friends is always awesome and having those people around also to be people who you can turn to and lean on in times of need is also a great blessing that we have.


3. The invention of coffee

For most of us, this magical drink has more than likely saved the lives of many throughout the world, including myself. This is truly one of life's most awesome moments because, without the invention of this amazing caffeinated drink, I think we would all be lost.


4. Getting into the school of your dreams

Upon finding out that I got into Kansas State University, I was so excited and anxious to start my future there. I can't imagine a greater feeling (I probably can) than the feeling of receiving that acceptance letter from the school you dreamed about going to.


5. Settling down with some Netflix and a nice cup of tea

My favorite thing about life is being able to relax every now and then. Cuddling up with a hot cup of tea and your laptop with some Netflix or Hulu is one of the greater things of life. Maybe adding a face mask to that list might make it a little better!


6. Family time

One of life's simplest pleasures is just sitting around the living room, laughing and talking with your family, especially family that you don't see often. Family time is important to me and I always enjoy every chance that I can get.


Those are just SOME of life's most awesome moments and there are many, many more. Being able to enjoy the little things in life are important. Finding the small things in life to enjoy are helpful to have a happier life and will help with simply just enjoying life more, it is easy to find all the flaws about life but a challenge to find the positives, but when you do, it is a great feeling.

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.
