So Ariana Grande just dropped her fifth album "thank u, next" only a few months after her fourth album, and if her voice wasn't so distinguishable I think I could convince someone that those albums are two different people.

We all know the events between "sweetener" and "thank u, next" but she deserves all the praise in the world for taking a lot of emotion and putting it straight into her work. I know some people think less of pop music because they believe the artists don't put emotion into it. I've always disagreed with this, but Ariana proves it. Emotional roller coasters of some of these songs show that pop songs are not always party songs, but can show some real pain.

"Sweetener" turned me into a full-fledged Ariana fan and her new music is really expanding her fan base.

Wanna know why?

Other women love women who can show they love themselves.

This girl full on canceled cuffing season and is living her hoe life and loving it. Something we all picked up on. 2019 is really becoming the year of the independent woman thanks to Ariana and the strong energy in "thank u, next."

The album is split into the songs that'll make you emotional and songs that'll make you know that no man can hold you down. It had me reflecting and getting emotional with "in my head," crying with "ghostin" and then screaming YES QUEEN with "break up with your girlfriend, i'm bored." That song is a full MOOD.

I remember hating Ariana Grande when she first started, to kinda liking her with "Dangerous Woman" and now I full on worship her.

Welcome to 2019, this year God is a woman. And it's Ariana Grande.

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.

It's easier than you think.

"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.

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.
