After Just One Month Of Summer, I Miss My College Friends Already
Madeline Dziak

It's been over a month since I took my last final of my freshman year, and now I've been home for over a month. In that time, I've been to a wedding out of state, listened to an album for an entire month until another album I've been waiting to come out came out, and I've been helping around the house. All while waiting for at least one of the jobs I applied to to call me back about setting up an interview.

As I sit in my house thinking about what to write, there is one thing that came to mind: my friends in college.

I made friends in marching band in the fliccs section, I made friends in my sorority and they're my sisters, there are some people that I was able to become friends with because we were in the same classes, and the list could go on. A majority of them don't live in the same area as me, so the only way of communication I have with them is either text, GroupMe, or Snapchat.

Don't get me wrong, whenever I get something from any of my friends, it lifts up my spirits because I know in about two months I will seeing them again on campus. They were able to make my first year of college memorable, and I know that there will be more memories to be made in the new year.

I love my friends from home. I always will because they helped shape me in the person that I am today.

But at this moment, I really want to see my college friends again.

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.
