5 Things I Miss About My College Town

Distance makes the heart grow fonder...and I am really missing Tallahassee

1. FSU Campus.

Florida State has one of the most beautiful campuses I have ever seen. The brick buildings and trees everywhere make such an amazing scenery for going for a walk/run. There are so many different spots on campus to sit down and just relax. You can even lay out in the sun on Landis Green or throw a football around. Just simply being on campus is something I miss.

2. Walking everywhere.

This is something I never thought that I would miss. Walking everywhere is exhausting at times but I will admit, in South Florida we drive everywhere and I am tired of it. Everything the students need is typically within walking distance from either campus or student-living apartments. Simply having to walk somewhere is so nice and is something I never expected to miss.

3. My apartment.

I MISS MY ROOM!!! My apartment in Tallahassee is so nice and is located right next to campus. We have a pool, gym, study rooms, and some of the best staff working there! We even get a monthly calendar with a bunch of different events or food places that will be brought to our lobby. They really try and make our living situation as easy as possible and I am so comfortable living there.

4. My friends.

I can not even describe how much I miss my people. My friends and I are together nearly every single day and not seeing them has been killing me. I know we are all doing our own things right now but it makes me so sad to think about how much fun we all would've had if he did not have our semester cut short. However, it makes me sooo excited to think about how excited I will be to be back there and reunite with them!

5. POTS!!!

Who doesn't miss Pots...let's be real. I am in desperate need of a lunchbox and Happy Hour right about now. I miss the music, the dancing, the fun that Pots brings. Every week, Happy Hour does not disappoint and when we all get back to school it will be even bigger and better!!

I'm the Short Friend. I've been the Short Friend since about the seventh grade. I'm the one who stands in the front of the photos, gets made fun of for their height, and still shops in the kids department.

This article is not for the Almost Short Friends, i.e. the 5'3" and 5'4" Friends. No no, this is for the Actually Short Friends, i.e. the Barely Scraping 5'1" and shorter Short Friends.

11 Things All Call Center Workers Can Empathize With Better Than Anyone

This semester I started my journey as a member of my University's Alumni Outreach Team. This means a lot of things, but primarily it means that I get to make phone calls to parents and alumni two nights a week to update contact information, collect things like business cards and volunteer hours, and even ask for money.

2. "Wow, how tall are you?!"

3. You don't realize how much you're craning your neck until you talk to someone as short as you.

10. "WHY didn't anyone leave a seat on the end in case someone came late?!"

11. "Does this professor hate me now?"

12. "I'll be early next class..."

Getting hung up on is my super power.

1. The first call is the hardest

2. Getting hung up on before you say something
