Dear Best Friend,

I know that we aren't close anymore. I know that not only did it seem like I picked other things over you, but that sometimes, I might've. However, I also know that I loved and still love you dearly.

We've known each other for a while. It seems kinda crazy that I've known you almost longer than I haven't known you. We used to do everything together, best friend. I don't want to open any old wounds, but I feel as though I really owe you an apology. I am truly sorry if I ever made you feel worth less than what you are, simply because I was being selfish with my time. You were always there for me, and I know I tried my absolute hardest to be there for you. After countless sleepovers and girls nights, you became less of a friend and more of a sister.

I really miss you, best friend. Sometimes whenever something exciting happens in my life, I am one second away from calling you to let you know, but then I stop myself because I can't help believing that you wouldn't want to hear it. Whenever I see you when we are back at home I feel like I want to just forget everything that happened in high school and start our friendship anew, because you are unquestionably one of the best friends I've ever had.

Some of the best times I've had in my life have been shared with you, and I wouldn't have it any other way. I hope that if you ever see this that you can maybe forgive me and that we could start again, as adults. As individuals who understand that sometimes, things just get in the way no matter how hard we try to keep it from happening.

To my dear best friend, you are a strong woman and an even stronger force to be reckoned with.

My love to you always,

~Robin

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?
