Why You Need Friends On Your Floor

Because they'll either be your best friends or your worst nightmare

Aug 23, 2016

When people come to college they are nervous and don't know how to get involved right away. Some advice for all freshman is MAKE FRIENDS ON YOUR FLOOR! I can promise you that the kids on you floor will either be your best friends or your worst nightmares.

My freshman year has been the best anyone could have ever asked for! I'm on a floor of 16 guys and I thought this would be terrible having no girls but it was just the opposite. Having a floor with my now called boys is the best experience I could ask for. You need to make these friends because these are the kids who will get you through the year! You don't have mommy and daddy anymore you need people who will have your back throughout the year and those are the kids.

Right now we are heading into finals week at Merrimack and these guys are the only people keeping me sane. They keep you relaxed and they keep you wanting to succeed. If it wasn't for my floor mates I would have fell through the cracks and probably wouldn't be doing as good as I am right now.

The point of this is to get you guys to be social and reach out to kids in college! You can't last in college f you don't have bro's or your girls by your side, and chances are the majority of those people will be the ones on your floor. Make it a point to hang out with them as much as possible because those will be your friends for all four years!

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.

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.

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.
