Being Reunited With Your College Best Friends After The Holidays
The Odyssey

Winter break is over? Weren't we just crying and stressing over finals last week? The thought of going through all the tears and stress again makes me want to sleep even more. On the bright side, the week we've all been waiting for is finally here: being reunited with our college best friends. The annoying, clingy text messages can now stop because you'll be able to annoy each other in person. The spring semester is the season for pool parties, formals, fraternity weekenders, and music festivals-- all which you can do with your best friends. No more sitting in bed watching Snapchat stories of people doing crazy shenanigans. No more binge watching Grey's Anatomy and Gilmore Girls by yourself because now you'll be able to do those things with your friends. I think we're all ready for a fun and memorable semester with our girls.

The reunion: excitedly yelling when you see each other

If we thought being separated a week during Thanksgiving was a long time, well, Winter break was even longer. The feeling of being reunited is the most exciting and anticipating moment.

Catching up and not leaving a single detail out

All conversations start with, "How was your break? Tell me everything!" I think we all like to fast-forward through the talk about family vacations and get to the good stuff. Though your college best friends might not have grown up with you in the same hometown, they like to keep updated about the drama that happens there.

Wine nights

Heart to heart conversations? Drink wine. Bad day? Drink wine. Girls night? Drink wine. Don't have a special occasion to drink wine? Drink it anyways. Girls love wine. Trust me, we don't only buy 2 or 3 bottles. Each person in the group gets their own bottle. It's more fun that way.

Spring Break planning is already in the process

Havasu? Mexico? California? It all sounds like a fun time. As a college student, spring break is one of the best times to let loose and where you choose to spend will make or break. Let's be real, your best friends can make this week a fun time no matter where you all decide to go. Don't forget the occasional drama.

Endless photos

Every group of friends takes a reunion photo when they see each other. We take photos for every occasion. It's what we do. During syllabus week, we take photos every day. Believe me, our iPhones are filled with embarrassing and great photos of each other.

Pool party season. Need I say more?

What are the two most feared words in the English language? Pool Party. The week you get back to college is the week you and your girls go to the gym to get in shape. Time to show off the new bikinis you've all been dying to wear. Pool party season is one of the best parts of Spring semester, no doubt. Get ready for the nonstop Instagram posts. We're in for a fun time.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

Power of Love Letters

I don't think I say it enough...

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
