To The Friend Who Moved Away

I miss you.

Dear Friend,

It's been a while since we've talked. Which, yeah, I understand. We both have very different lives in very different locations. Regardless, I miss you. I miss the middle school memories we share, and the t-shirts we've made. And, we can't forget the scattered times we've spent time together since you had to move away.

I hope all is well, and you are having a ball with the route your life is taking you. I wish you the best as you pursue your interests (at least I hope you are). You deserve happiness. I know you aren't far away, but, I know life is crazy and schedules get messy.

I see your Facebook posts about your family, your significant other.. and yes, your new friends. I would be lying if I said that it didn't hit me hard once you got a new best friend. You guys seem to have a lot of fun spending time together. I just wish you were still creating memories with me. I know what you're thinking, and it's not that I'm being bitter because you moved on--I promise I'm not.

I am so happy that you are happy. I just, once again, miss you like crazy.

I hope that one day, our paths will cross again. We can pick up where we left off, and the new friends we've both made can join us.

But, until then, I wish you the best. Hopefully we can chat soon. Topic doesn't matter, it could be about the weather for all I care. I just want to hear from you.

Sincerely,

Me

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. For some students, it's their first time in the library all semester, maybe ever. Others have slaved away many nights under the fluorescent lights, and are slightly annoyed to find their study space being invaded by amateurs. While these newbies wander aimlessly around the first floor, hopelessly trying to find a table, the OGs of the library are already on the third floor long tables deep into their studies. Here is a few signs that you may live in the library, whether you'd like to admit it or not.
