Why It Never Gets Easier to Leave My Dog for College

Author's Photo

Here we go again.

Another year, another goodbye. You're my favorite hello, and my absolute hardest goodbye. When I think about how much I miss home, it's you I think about. Yeah, I miss home cooked meals and mom and dad, but mainly I miss my furry best friend.

You're getting older now, and I wish I was around more to watch you grow up and old. It never gets any easier to leave you behind each year. I try to come and visit as often as possible but it stinks spending so much time apart.

Here are the things I miss the most when I'm away from you:

1. No warm fluffy thing to constantly cuddle with.

2. No unconditional love even after I've been a bitch all day.

3. There will be no pet to play with when I'm bored at school.

4. There will be no one to eat all my left over food.

5. Waking up to my dog annoying me for attention.

6. Having no dog to chase just for fun.

7. Hugging and kissing my dog at all times.

8. No one will ever get as excited for me to walk in the door as my dog does.

9. I'll even miss the puppy eyes I get every time I eat.

10. You will have to go months without sleeping on top of me at night.

11. When I'm home alone, I won't have my dog to keep me company.

I'm gonna miss you buddy.

I remember my freshman year oh so well. I remember feeling terrified the night before orientation. The one thing that I dreaded the most was not the new people, the new environment, or even the academic pressure. I was dreading having to talk to sorority girls about Recruitment. I remember cutting off and avoiding any Rho Gamma/Panhellenic Officer that came my way during First Week. I looked at them like they had asked me to cut my arm off whenever they asked me if I wanted to rush. To be honest, I did not even know what rush was, but I knew that I did NOT want to be a part of it. To me, it was dumb. It was a waste of money. It was a waste of my time.

And guess what? I did not rush my freshman year. I spent the first half of my freshman year isolating myself from everyone on campus. I spent all of my time in the library, and then (since I was a commuter) went back home once my work was finished.
