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

Dear High School Friend Group,

My sweet angels, where would I be without you guys. We all grew up together because we either met in middle school or high school and watched each other grow up and get "old." We got to go to prom together and then graduate together. Then watched each other as we continued our lives in college, joining sororities and meeting people who will impact our lives forever. It all has happened so fast.

Oh college, we can’t live with you, but we can’t live without you. It’s a love/hate relationship, really. College is an experience that no one can ever prepare you for, and maybe that’s a good thing. You never really expect any of the things that college encompasses until you are there. College is fun, but don’t have too much fun. C’s get degrees, but they don’t get you into graduate school.

Blair Waldorf

The "Gossip Girl" series may be over, but Blair Waldorf's iconic character lives in our hearts forever. Blair was the queen of the Upper East Side, and a character you either loved or hated. She taught us everything we needed to know about life, love and of course, how to score a Chuck Bass. So the next time you feel a bit lost and are in need of guidance, look no further than to the Queen B herself.

As I spend my Sunday avoiding my homework and other adult responsibilities, I realized that I've watched this series over and over about a million times. Sadly, there isn't a Blair quote I don't know, so I came up with a list of a few favorites. You know you love her...xoxo

Summer: a time (usually) free from school work and a time to relax with your friends and family. Maybe you go on a vacation or maybe you work all summer, but the time off really does help. When you're in college you become super close with so many people it's hard to think that you won't see many of them for three months. But, then you get that text saying, "Hey, clear your schedule next weekend, I'm coming up" and you begin to flip out. Here are the emotions you go through as your best friend makes her trip to your house.
