12 Things "Squads" Who Live Apart Understand
Buzzfeed

High school friends. They’re the people who get you through those four years nobody could ever pay you enough to do again. The ones you truly thought you could never live without. And then one day, college happens, and you all find yourselves on opposite sides of the universe- or so it feels. Making other friends is inevitable, but you’ll always have that special place in your heart for your main squad. Here are some daily occurrences everyone who lives apart from their best friends can relate to.

1. The squad group chat is always blowing up.

You might as well be sitting on a vibrating chair during lecture. How convenient.

2. You're constantly sending each other old, embarrassing videos that you've kept of one another.

And sometimes, you're extremely tempted to send them to Ellen Degeneres.

3. You're tagged in at least three memes a day... most of which look something like this.

Oh, and they're 100% aware of the fact that your mom will see them too. Yup, good luck explaining this one to her.

4. Houseparty!

Now the whole crew can Facetime at once. The best part about it is that you never know who will join the house next. Could be your best friend's mom, or your grandma- it's always a surprise.

5. Your college roommates have learned to tune you out when you talk about all the adventures you guys used to have together.

6. They share your Facebook “on this day" memories from middle school that make you question your preadolescent normalcy.

And you totally thought that posts like these were socially acceptable at the time.

7. And other times, they'll tag you in photos you posted onto social media during your awkward stage that look like this.

How artsy.

8. You get territorial when one of them posts a picture with a new friend they've made.

So.. yeah, I'm gonna need her name, address, and social security number. PRONTO.


9.You've made your own "squad" snapchat group created strictly for the purpose of sending selfies that look like this.

Because it's important to remind each other to stay humble.

10. You don’t see each other very often, but when you do, you look like a scene straight out of "The Little Rascals".


11. Sometimes you get nostalgic so you scroll through old photos before bed.

Shoutout to photo-booths for good lighting.

12. But no matter how much you miss them, or how far away they are, they'll ALWAYS be there for you.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.

Thanksgiving break is over and Christmas is just around the corner and that means, for most college students, one hellish thing — finals week.

To prove it, here are just a few of the many deranged thoughts that go through a college student's mind during finals week.

I know every college student has daily thoughts throughout their day. Whether you're walking on campus or attending class, we always have thoughts running a mile a minute through our heads. We may be wondering why we even showed up to class because we'd rather be sleeping, or when the professor announces that we have a test and you have an immediate panic attack.
