To all of my College Friends

I don't know where I would be without you.

To all of my College Friends

I want to thank you for challenging me and pushing me to be the best version of myself.

When I came to college, I didn't think I would make any friends and I was pretty lonely my Freshman year. I have a best friend who goes to Ohio State and I would spend a lot of time with her and nobody from my own school, but I'm not here to talk about my that. Instead, I want to talk about all of the amazing people I have met since then, and the impact they have had on my life.

As I have mentioned in a previous article, I joined a sorority my sophomore year. I have met so many amazing people, who see much more in me than I see in myself. Just being around them has made me want to become a better person. making friends in my sorority has helped me make friends in classes as well. I don't just sit in the back and keep to myself in all of my classes anymore, now I talk to people and actually have things to say in class. My sorority has definitely helped me find more confidence and work on my leadership skills.

I have had so many great experiences that will stay with me for the rest of my life. I tried things that I thought I would never try before, and I have been able to do things that I couldn't have done before I met these amazing people.

I think the hardest thing about going away to college is figuring out how to become an adult. Leaving a household where your parents took care of literally everything (thanks, Mom!) and suddenly becoming your own boss is overwhelming. I feel like I'm doing a pretty good job of being a grown-up, but once in awhile I do something that really makes me feel like I'm #adulting. Twenty-somethings know what I'm talking about.

I went to a small high school, like 120-people-in-my-graduating-class small. It definitely had some good and some bad, and if you also went to a small high school, I’m sure you’ll relate to the things that I went through.

1. If something happens, everyone knows about it

Who hooked up with whom at the party? Yeah, heard about that an hour after it happened. You failed a test? Sorry, saw on Twitter last period. Facebook fight or, God forbid, real fight? It was on half the class’ Snapchat story half an hour ago. No matter what you do, someone will know about it.

Chandler Bing

I'm assuming that we've all heard of the hit 90's TV series, Friends, right? Who hasn't? Admittedly, I had pretty low expectations when I first started binge watching the show on Netflix, but I quickly became addicted.

Without a doubt, Chandler Bing is the most relatable character, and there isn't an episode where I don't find myself thinking, Yup, Iam definitely the Chandler of my friend group.

Working with the public can be a job, in and of itself. Some people are just plain rude for no reason. But regardless of how your day is going, always having to be in the best of moods, or at least act like it... right?

1. When a customer wants to return a product, hands you the receipt, where is printed "ALL SALES ARE FINAL" in all caps.

2. Just because you might be having a bad day, and you're in a crappy mood, doesn't make it okay for you to yell at me or be rude to me. I'm a person with feelings, just like you.

3. People refusing to be put on hold when a customer is standing right in front of you. Oh, how I wish I could just hang up on you!
