10 Signs You Are Missing Your Best Friend

Best friend is an honorable title to behold, and the ones who have earned it are usually the people you hang out with 24/7. However, when they go back to college in other states, or travel halfway across the world for months on end, you are forced to adapt to a lifestyle that is foreign to you. If you happen to suffer from these 10 symptoms, I think it is safe to say that your best friends need to make an appearance in your life as soon as humanly possible!


1. You find yourself driving to your best friend's house.

Then, you realize they're 2,000 miles away.


2. You say find yourself saying, "I would do that if they were here."

I mean, no other normal person will watch 20 consecutive episodes of "Grey's Anatomy" with you.


3. You catch yourself saying or doing things that other people just don't understand (or any normal human being, for that matter).


4. You try to call your best friend when something earth-shattering happens, but they don't answer since you're on completely opposite schedules.


At least your dog will listen.


5. You do some serious self-reflection and spend a lot of time by yourself since it seems like you only had one friend while they were here.


6. You reference them at least once in every other sentence, even when the other person has no idea who you're talking about.


7. You practically lose an entire closet, since your best friend took all of your favorite clothes with her.


8. You tell people stories that only your best friend would think is funny, and get slightly offended when no one else laughs.


You had to be there, right?


9. You have a calendar with the days counting down until you get to see them.


Your life can finally turn back to normal (for as long as their break allows it).


10. You have no one to help you make decisions, which leaves you to make them all on your own.


We all know how horribly that tends to turn out.

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.
