We all have friends that we consider the fam. Whether it's partying all night or working all day together, the fam doesn't get much better than this. So, here's 10 benefits of having a close-knit fam.

1. Socialization

Let's face it! In a small town, you don't do much except work and gossip about your neighbor. So, you live for the time spent socializing with the fam.

2. Laughter is the best medicine

Whenever someone in the fam is feeling down, you make arrangements to get together so that they don't have to be alone. No matter how down you are, the fam will always make you laugh by telling old stories from the past or plotting the death of the one who hurt you. After all, laughter is the best medicine.

3. You don't feel excluded because everyone's single

Have you ever felt like you're the only one in the group of friends who's single? While everyone's making out with their other half, you just sit in your chair feeling lonely as ever. But the fam never leaves you feeling that way because you're usually all single and not ready to mingle.

4. Free spirited

Adventure is the fam's middle name. You're always finding something to do together whether it's stepping into a haunted house or trying to go zip lining in the middle of the night.

5. You look out for each other

That phone call at 3 a.m. in the morning isn't your parents, it's the fam making sure you got home safe and another one in the morning to make sure you're up in time for work.

6. They make you live life

Small town people don't get to live life too exciting, but getting with the fam is always a good time. When ever you get together, you know that life doesn't get much better than this.

7. Makes you look forward to the time spent

The time the fam spends together is the best time of your life. The highlight of the week is getting to go spend it with them.

8. You are excepted

No judgement or condemnation is allowed. No matter what you do or how far you come from falling of the edge of the cliff, the fam will always except you and your craziness or stupidity.

9. You are family

Fam is fam. You might not be blood related, but you're pretty damn close.

10. It's always a good time

Whatever the fam does, it's always going to be a good time. From picking popcorn to sitting in a camper chatting, time spent with the fam never disappoints. Because you don't count the hours, you make the hours count!

Taylor Swift in orange dress playing a moss-covered piano on stage with bright lights.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

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.
