Summer is a beautiful time, especially for college students. Whether we are spending our summers at home, vacationing, working or taking summer classes, simply being on a different schedule is refreshing. Not all of us live in the same area as our university, or in the same vicinity as our friends. It's weird to go from spending every moment with a group of people to possibly going months without them.

1. "I have so much to tell you when we're together."

Even though conversations are constant between your friends, some stories are just too big for a text. You are guaranteed to spend the first week back together just rehashing things that happened over the summer.

2. "Who am I supposed to hang out with?"

We should try to branch out with other friends, but I feel the same way. Obviously we choose to spend time together during the school year, so what are we supposed to do once we are separated?

3. "I can't wait until school starts."

While this statement is a big one, I think a lot of friends can agree to wanting to be back on campus, as long as classes hold off for a bit. This is especially true if you are roommates or apartment-mates with your friend(s) and are just so excited to decorate your new space together.

4. "Can we not let our Snapchat streak end?"

Even though the value of a friendship cannot be defined from the number of days you send and receive snaps of each other, it's definitely a good way to make sure you talk (or look at each other) daily.

5. "But for real, come see me."

We all wish we had unlimited free time and funds to fly around the country to visit each other, especially the ones in those beach towns.

6. "Thank you for the 55 group messages, guys."

It may drain your battery, but seeing your phone light up with tons of texts and memes from your friends is the best way to stay connected and know they're thinking of you.

7. "I miss you."

Probably the most-said phrase among separated friends, but missing each other will only allow for an even better reunion. Plus, we may wish for that time apart once we're back in each other's space in a few months.

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.
