20 Struggles of Going to a Different College Than Your BFF

Times are tough whenever you're far away from your best friend.

20 Struggles of Going to a Different College Than Your BFF

1. No one else has even seen your favorite movie, so quoting it makes you feel stupid.
2. No one understands your inside jokes. So when you bring up a story, no one laughs.
3. You don't laugh as much. It's impossible.
4. You don't get to harass her significant other (in person, at least).
5. However, you can creep on all of her boyfriends and friends via social media. And they probably will think you are crazy.
6. Whenever she visits you or you visit her, you either ignore everyone else in your college town or you have TOO FUN of a night. To the point to where you're both are worthless the rest of the weekend.
7. You can only vent to her via text message. Or phone call. Or Skype call.
8. Whenever she doesn't reply to your text in 2 minutes, you harass her.
9. Her best friends from school call you whenever they can't find her. Also, you are close with her best friends from school (not a struggle, actually kind of cool).
10. You have to go through awkward date functions and events WITHOUT each other.
11. You aren't in the same pledge class. Or probably the same sorority. But that's okay, because you two find a way to provide "Greek unity" and somehow combine the Kappa Kappa Gamma hand signal with the Delta Zeta hand signal. It works (not really).
12. You actually have to drive a distance to visit her. When at home you live 5 minutes apart. Or just at each other's houses.
13. You can't be roommates. Even though you know y'all would have the PERFECT living situation.
14. You wake up to her 100 second long Snapchat to you and you are instantly jealous that she's having fun while you're studying.
15. Thanksgiving and Christmas breaks seem forever away.
16. You are typically too busy to visit each other because face it, college sucks sometimes.
17. You have no one that agrees that you are, in fact, the funniest person ever (even though you both obviously are).
18. You try to describe to your friends at school how cool she is, and they just don't get it.
19. Everyone else you send hideous snapchats to will screenshot them and show the world. You know that she will screenshot them, but only to send you weeks later and LOL about.
20. SHE LIVES FAR AWAY AND YOU MISS HER.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
