1,000 miles can't separate us.

To My Best Friend As I Leave For College
McKenzie Brouk

Dear BFF,

Never did I think that this day would actually come, and that in less than two weeks I will be over 1,000 miles away from you, my best friend. I feel so lucky to have met someone like you. You're one of the kindest, most hard working, and caring people I have ever met, and I'm honored to call you my best friend. At the beginning of summer it seemed as we had so much time with each other, but in reality time passed so quickly. I'm sitting here writing this article in tears because I can't even begin to imagine the thought of not seeing you everyday at the rink, or be able to pick up my phone to text you to hang out whenever we want. I'm writing this to say thank you for being you, and for being the best friend I ever had.

Thank you for always being there for me countless times for whatever the reason was I could always count on you to be right there next to me. Times where I was sad over stupid boys, family reasons, school, or basically anything else you always knew the right words to say or how to cheer me up. You're the first person I text in a time of crisis or when I have something super exciting to tell. Thank you for loving me for who I am, and never questioning our friendship. I find it crazy that we have never gotten in one fight or argument, but then I think that just shows how strong our friendship is.

I'll never forget our countless memories, and I absolutely cannot wait to create new ones. Remember when we made homemade pizza that we doubled the ingredients on, and it ended up overflowing? Yeah that was pretty awful. Let's just say baking is not our strong suit although I think were getting better. We have been on so many trips together like California, Disney World, Wisconsin, Chicago where we created memories that will last a lifetime. I never get tired of hanging out with you because there is always a new adventure. I love that I can look at you with one look and we can know exactly what the other is thinking.

I am going to miss you so so much, but promise me that you will come visit me all the way up in Michigan. I'm so proud of you and I can't wait to see all the things you accomplish this year! Thank you for being my bridesmaids enthusiast, incredibly talented, and caring best friend.

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

College is a great place to meet people, especially through Greek life. If you look closely at sororities, you'll quickly see there are many different types of girls you will meet.

1. The Legacy.

Her sister was a member, her mom was a member, all of her aunts were members, and her grandma was a member. She has been waiting her whole life to wear these letters and cried hysterically on bid day. Although she can act entitled at times, you can bet she is one of the most enthusiastic sisters.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September. It becomes harder and harder to focus in classes and while doing assignments as the days get closer. The winter has been lagging, the days are short and dark, and no one is quite themselves due to lack of energy and sunlight. Let's face it: life is ten times better in the summertime.
