Forever Friends

The type of people who call your parents mom and dad and make themselves feel at home by eating directly out of your refrigerator without even having to ask.

Forever Friends
Avery Herbon

Forever friends are the people you will be stuck with for the rest of your life. The people you call in the middle of the night while you're crying into a tub of Ben and Jerrys ice cream due to your broken heart. The ones you can be your silly self with and not have any fear of being judged for it. Because let's face it, they're probably being just as weird with you.

They are your go to guys and gals. The ones you confide it, consider family, and would take a bullet for. Your ride or dies. They mean the world to you and you do not get to thank them very often for being just flat out awesome.

Thank you for never making me feel like I am either crazy or alone. Sometimes I just need validation and you are so good at making me feel loved and sane.


Thank you for always being there for me. Even when it was hard for you or me.


Thank you for wiping away those tears.


Thank you for loving me as me. Nothing more. Nothing less.


Thank you for putting this smile on my face. I do not know what I would do if I did not have you there to make me laugh.


Thank you for singing along with me in the car. Loudly too.


Thank you for pushing me to always being my best, and reminding me what I actually deserve.


Thank you for the late night abductions when I just needed time to get away from it all.


Thank you for laughing at my jokes... even when they're absolutely lame at times.


Thank you for all-nighter life talks that make think about why life truly matters.


Thank you for not punching me in the face when I am doing something obviously stupid.


Thank you for accepting me after I did that stupid thing. And then doing it again cause I didn't learn my lesson the first time.


Thank you for helping me put back together my life when it seems like a mess.


Thank you for all of the wonderful memories we have had together. And here's to many more.

Thank you for sticking through it all. For still being here.

You are seriously the bees knees. The cat's whiskers. The monkey's pajamas. You keep my world calm and my soul happy. I do not know what I would do without you and I never want to find out.

I value you so much more than I could ever express. You are a representation some of my happiest memories as well as some of my hardest goodbyes. Although, I know it's never a goodbye it is always just a "see you later."

After my years of trying to figure out who I am and what I want to do with my life, having these people by my side has made it all the more worth it. I do not say thank you enough for being a part of my life and making every waking moment better with your presence.

I will be there for you through thick and thin and when times get tough for the rest of our lives. I will be one phone call or text away from you at all times and will do whatever it takes to make you as happy as you have made me.

Thank you for being you and being a huge part of my life.

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?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week. For some students, it's their first time in the library all semester, maybe ever. Others have slaved away many nights under the fluorescent lights, and are slightly annoyed to find their study space being invaded by amateurs. While these newbies wander aimlessly around the first floor, hopelessly trying to find a table, the OGs of the library are already on the third floor long tables deep into their studies. Here is a few signs that you may live in the library, whether you'd like to admit it or not.
