The Show "This Is Us" Will Be Amazing
NBC

I'm not sure if any of you have seen the trailer for the new television series "This Is Us" but I've watched it about 20 times. IT'S. JUST. WONDERFUL. There are many reasons why I'm excited for this show and I think other people should check it out as well.

This show seems unlike like any other show, well at least to my knowledge. It seems real, and I know they are actors and its scripted but the real life situations makes it intriguing.

In the trailer it follows the lives of different characters, but some characters are connected to one another. The trailer already has 6.5 million views and that's saying a lot. I think we all get tired of the superficial shows that depict unrealistic lifestyles or story lines at some point. Here are some reasons why I believe this show will be great.

1. Body Image Issues: The trailer follows the story line of a woman who struggles with her weight and faces the HARSH but REAL life experiences that most overweight people come across on a daily basis. This is incredibly important on so many levels. We all need to see and understand what life is like for others at times, we can't always assume something about someone just by what they look like.

2. Abandonment/Forgiveness: Another character in the show deals with finding his birth father and really understanding why his father never wanted him. But also, understanding that forgiveness exists and that second chances can be given to people.

3. Beauty of Life but also Loss: A couple in the show are new parents to twins, it shows the anxiety and nerves that go into starting a family but also dealing with the loss of a child.

4. MANDY MOORE IS BACK!!! For those of you who don't know Mandy Moore, shame on you! I've loved her since her work on movies like A Walk To Remember (DUH), Saved, Princess Diaries, etc. I'm so excited that she will be back on our television screens.

5. MILO VENTIMIGLIAAKA JESS: Do I need to say more?! He's done work on Gilmore Girls (Excited for the new series to hit Netflix, been waiting forever for that!), Heroes, The Whispers, etc.

If any of you haven't seen the trailer for "This Is Us", well what are you waiting for!? Check it out below!

I'm so excited for this show, its ridiculous. Can't wait to see what story lines they explore upon and what real life situations they'll face.

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.

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.
