Dear future husband...

Dear future husband (cue Megan Trainor song),

Hey. How are you? I really hope you're doing better than ever. I know I don't know who you are yet, but that definitely doesn't stop me from wondering who you are. It's probably weird how often I actually think about who you might be. My roommates even know if I could have one wish it would be to know who I am going to marry. Not even kidding. I'm curious as to what you're doing right now. Or where you might be. Are we even in the same state? The same side of the country, or the same side of the world? Can't you just reveal yourself already? I guess that would take the fun out of it.

If I was presented with a book that would tell me everything about the rest of my life, the only part I would want to know is who you are. Again yeah, I know that's kind of strange, but you're going to have to get used to strange.

Have we already crossed paths? Are you someone I've known for years, maybe even someone from high school? If I'm being honest, I sure hope not. Are we going to meet in college? Do I have to wait all the way until junior or senior year? I'm not even sure I can wait that long. I am by no means in a rush to get married anytime soon, but it would be a HUGE stress reliever to know that you do exist. That love does exist. That I won't be alone forever.

Maybe we will meet at a bar like my parents did. Or maybe we will meet in a class where we are forced into being partners for some stupid project. Maybe we won't even know how we met. We just randomly knew each other one day. Wait... are we even the same age right now?

I hope life is handing you everything you've ever wanted right now. If you're currently in a relationship, I hope she genuinely makes you happy. And you better be treating her right. She should know she isn't the one though. Sorry not sorry.

I can't wait until I wake up everyday next to the love of my life. I'm pretty sick of waking up alone, or sometimes maybe not with the person I want to be with. I hope you smile when you think of me and I actually really hope you can handle all I am going to throw at you. I have confidence you can. I pray that you are good with kids, but I have a feeling that you are probably better with them than I am.

Of course there are other things I lowkey (maybe highkey) picture about you. I wouldn't mind if you were tall, with pretty eyes, a perfect smile, and had 5 or 6 zeros attached. I most definitely would not mind if you were athletic and liked college basketball and baseball. But don't worry that's not a requirement. You'll just have to deal with it being on in our house.

So to my future husband, if you are reading this, XOXO.

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?
