14 Feelings You Will Only Understand If You Have Long-Distance Best Friends
Josh Applegate

College classes just started again for most students, and a lot of you are experiencing college for the first time. It's overwhelming but full of excitement! For most of us, this week is our second or third week of long lectures and late nights. (Probably all on our 20th K-Cup box.) We are just now getting adjusted to our schedules and workload, and stress is starting to overcome the best of us.

In the midst of these low moments in our lives, we begin to miss home more and more as each day passes, especially for those attending college out of state. We all have some friends from middle and high school who scattered to different colleges, all of whom we miss and love dearly. Here are some feelings everyone can relate to during long distance friendships.

1. When you and your friends say goodbye for the semester (Until breaks).


2. It's been a couple of days and you guys are going through withdrawals from the common things you did together so you reminisce while looking at pictures.


3. When you guys try to schedule a Facetime call but life gets in the way.



4. When you guys are in constant communication



5.Getting Separation Anxiety.



6. When they visit and you get to introduce them to your new friends.

7. When you see other people take a Snapchat of your friends, and it makes you miss them even more.


8. Celebrating birthdays and their accomplishments without them.


9. When Facebook and Timehop notify you of the memories you guys share.



10. Dreaming and making plans for when you guys finally see each other again.



11. When all your new friends tell you to stop texting so much when it's really just your friends from home.



12. Or when they think you're texting a boy, but it's just friends from home. And you're just like, "I'm too unattractive for that...



13. Calling each other during random parts of the day (Even in the middle of the night).



14. When it's a long break and you get to see them for a long period of time

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.
