In the small city of Gainesville, foodies have succeeded to find the most Instagram-able restaurants to eat at. These are the best, and don't forget, the phone eats first.
From poke bowls to sushi rolls, what will you choose?

They share the same love for food as you do and if you’re as lucky as me, you might even have a roommate who gets the same thing from your favorite restaurant as you and is willing to split it. There is nothing like bonding with your best friends while enjoying some good food.

However, my college friends will text me telling me to get out of bed because we’re going to the gym whether I want to or not. I love having friends to workout with and motivate me with their workout routines. It’s also an added bonus that I have friends to get lunch with afterwards.
I know if I call one of my friends crying in the middle of the night, they’ll be at my room in 30 seconds without me even saying anything. If I’m ever not sure what decision to make, they talk me through it and lead me to make the right choice. Whether it’s a senseless conversation about how many dogs you want when you have your own place or a serious life discussion, your college friends are always going to be willing to talk.

They're always down for a trip to the library (and are willing to stop for coffee beforehand for those late night study sessions). They always motivate you to study hard so you can go out on the weekend.
Do you ever look at your closet and think that you have absolutely nothing to wear? (Even though there is a full closet of cute clothes right in front of your eyes). One of the many perks of your college friends is having a new closet to browse through. You now have cute outfits to borrow and your friends can also borrow your clothes that you’re tired of wearing.

When something good happens, they’re the people who want to congratulate you. When something bad happens, they know all the right things to say to cheer you up (in most cases it involves a trip to the dining hall to get some cookie dough ice cream).
You spend every waking minute with these people; you’re bound to become close like family. I’m thankful for my college friends for caring for me and supporting me like my own family does. The memories I share with these people are unforgettable. My college experience would not be the same without these friends in my life.
I could not be more grateful for the friends I’ve made at school. They make the bad days easier, and the good days even better. I am so lucky to have met such great people to share my college experience with. My life wouldn’t be the same without them.
