"Though miles may lie between us, we are never apart. For our friendship doesn't count miles, it's measured by the heart."

Here are 10 things all long distance friends knows to be true!

1. FaceTime is always a must.

Even though it's not the same as having them there in person, FaceTime is always a must with lost distance friends.

2. How your friends from home act when they finally meet your long distance friend:

The friends you have always seem to be very excited to meet your long distance friend!

3. How you are when someone from their new town calls them their "new best friend":

No matter how many miles away, no one can take your place as best friend.


4. How you feel while on the airplane to go see them:

There is nothing more exciting than going to visit your other half!

5. How they look at you when you finally arrive:

Even though you both have been planning this for months and counting down the days until it happened, it still feels surreal seeing them for the first time in months.

6. When you guys get together, it's like no time has passed.

No matter how long you've been apart, when you're back together it feels like you saw them yesterday!

7. People tend to think you two are a bit...odd.

When you two get together, things can get a little weird.

8. When your best friend is in town, plans with anyone else are pushed back.

No one can come between what limited time you two have together.

9. Leaving them never gets easier.

There's nothing worse than hugging your best friend goodbye, unsure of when the next time you see them will be.

10. But at the end of the day, you know no amount of distance could break the bond you have.

Whether its two miles or two thousand, you guys will always be the best of friends.

"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.
