You Know You Found Your College Best Friends When...

When I left high school and came to college I was terrified that I would not find a group of close friends. However, I was blessed to find a group of people that makes college truly the best time of my life. Here are ten things that will tell you that you found your college best friends.


1. The group message is always bumping

You have a group text message, a snapchat group, and you're constantly tagging each other on things on Instagram. Your group chats are constantly filled with hilarious stories throughout the day and updates on everybody's struggles. There is never a moment that the group chat is not blowing up.


2. You can roast each other all the time.

Nobody is safe when it comes to roasting. From brining up truly humiliating stories to commenting on something they said, the roasting never stops. But it's never a real fight, you just laugh about it and move on.


3. They're always down for an adventure

Whether it's randomly taking a day trip somewhere or going for a 2 am night drive on the parkway, they'll never turn down an adventure. You know you can always count on them to take life by storm.


4. Their advice never fails you

Whether it's over something serious or something silly, they're always there with guidance. They'll sit with you for as long as you need and listen to you rant. After you're done with the ranting they'll give you their honest opinion, and it never fails to make things easier.


5. They keep things super real

Whenever you make a stupid decision or are just being stupid, they tell you straight up. They'll call you out when you've done something wrong and they never let you do something that you'd regret. They never lie to you and are 100% honest. It may be hard to hear the truth sometimes, but you know you need to hear it.



6. They brighten up your worst days

Even on the days that you've been crying your eyes out in bed, they make you laugh and enjoy the day. They'd walk across campus to bring you a water and some food when you can't get up. You might be in the worst mood but with them, that won't last long.

7. Borrowing clothes is never an issue

When you're in desperate need of a cute article of clothing, a quick message to the group chat is all it takes. They'll comment on your Instagram pictures from 100 weeks ago and say, "Can I borrow this". Your closet is their closet and vice versa.


8. Some of your favorite nights have been doing nothing with them

There have been nights where you all just sat there for hours talking and listening to music. You love these nights because they were filled with laughter and you didn't have to wear pants. Who needs to go out when you can stuff your face and roast your friends.


9. You all have the same taste in music

You all respect going from High School Musical to hardcore rap to Tame Impala. Car rides and hangout sessions are filled with music blasting and there's never an argument about a certain song being on. You're also being introduced to new music constantly and some of it becomes your favorite.


10. They fill your life with positivity and motivation

The friends that you've met in college are pushing you to meet your full potential. They only show you the positives of a situation and motivate you to embrace life and all it has to offer. You know in any given situation they will push you in the right direction and send you that way with a smile on your face.



Coming into college can be a nerve-wracking experience without all of your best friends from home by your side. But when you find your friends in college, it makes everything easier. Thank you to the girls that went from strangers to the ones who would drop everything for me. College and life would not be the same without you.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
