Minnesota: The Land of 10,000 Lakes, The North Star State, basically Antartica. If you are apart of the lucky population of those who live in this great state, then you are probably crying along with the rest of us about the current weather conditions. Come on Minnesota, IT'S APRIL. To those of you who don't live in Minnesota, here is an explanation of the seasons in Minnesota as told by The Office. ( All gifs are courtesy of Giphy.com)

1. Basically Antartica

School canceled due to snow? Nah, the school was canceled because of the -45 degree windchill.

2. Normal Winter

It's bearable, but please leave.

3. Weeklong Spring

40 degrees? Break out the sandals and the shorts, it's finally getting warm again.

4. Second Winter

Enough.

5. Spring!

Okay, now we can actually pack up the winter gear.

6. Sike, Third Winter

This was to be expected, but for the love of mother nature PLEASE STOP.

7. Spring? Winter? Mud Season.

Good luck with that spring gear. Is it acceptable to wear snow boots to avoid the mud that is everywhere? Also, that road that you probably take to work is flooded... good luck.

8. Actual Spring

Honestly, who cares anymore.

9. Construction Season

No. No. No. No. No. No. No. No. 20-minute drive? Make it at least twice that.

10. Vacation to the Sahara

When you can go from -50 degree weather in the winter to 115 in the summer you know there a problem... or you're just in Minnesota.

11. Fall...

Time for Uggs.

12. Second Summer

Please stop complaining about it being so hot out.

13. Back to School

This needs no explanation.

12. Winter, aka Hibernation Mode Activated


If you need me, I'll be in a pile of blankets.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
