College is crazy. One night you're hanging out with friends, watching and singing along to Mulan, and the next day you're all cramming for midterms together. You'll also meet amazing people from places you've never heard of (even if it's in your home state). You'll have classes with someone for a whole semester and never learn their name, or share your life story with the girl that's studying beside you in the library at three in the morning. This is for the different types of friends I've made in my almost two years at college.

To my freshman year, orientation "first friend": I'm pretty sure we both knew we weren't going to keep in touch, but there's a selfie of us somewhere on my Twitter. Do you still go here? Are you doing okay?

To the friends I made the first week of school: Thanks for helping me through the awkward transition from graduated senior to college freshman. I'm glad I had someone to share eye rolls with during orientation and the first RA introductions.

To the friends that I only know because we had one class together: That class was rough, wasn't it? Thanks for being there to commiserate with. And if I didn't know your name, I'm sorry, but you were an awesome person and I would totally hit you up on Instagram (you know, if I had anyway of finding you). Thanks for the times you helped we figure out what the heck was going on and when assignments were due. Hope you're doing well in your other classes!

To the girls that lived across the hall last year: Hearing your random biology rap songs that you used to study always made me laugh. Also thanks for that one time I was dying and you ran to CVS to get medicine (and brought chocolate too!). I honestly miss our random musical discussions so much.

To the friends that I was really close with, but then drifted apart from: I really miss our friendship a lot. We had some great times until we started going our separate ways, and I'm sorry it happened that way. If you ever want to take me back as a friend, I'll be here, but if you don't, I'll understand that too.

To the friend that I thought could put a BFF before a BF: Thank you for showing me that actions truly do speak louder than words. You gave me an invaluable lesson in trust (and showed that my mom is usually right).

To the friends I've met through dance: Thank you all for embracing me, sass and all, and making me feel like a part of the team. I love you all and you guys are gonna do amazing things in each of your respective fields. (Thanks for not cutting me from yur dances too!)

To the friends that are studying abroad this semester: I miss all of you and can't wait to hear all about your adventures when you get back! Take lots of pictures to make the rest of us jealous!

To the awkward, endearing, crazy, adorable, sarcastic, amazing group of friends I currently am stuck in a GroupMe with (aka The Squad): I actually really love each and every one of you (even if I don't always act like it). Even though it was literally just living in close proximity that brought us together (for the most part), it was the best thing to ever come out of random housing assignments. I'm really glad we all got over our initial feelings of dislike to become the hot mess of a group we are today. From inside jokes to random last minute adventures to a simple trip to Commons, having you guys to struggle through college with makes it all so much easier. I hope we can all stay close throughout next year's housing assignments and beyond. (Please stop changing the name of the GroupMe.)
