Being Reunited With Your College Best Friends After The Holidays
The Odyssey

Winter break is over? Weren't we just crying and stressing over finals last week? The thought of going through all the tears and stress again makes me want to sleep even more. On the bright side, the week we've all been waiting for is finally here: being reunited with our college best friends. The annoying, clingy text messages can now stop because you'll be able to annoy each other in person. The spring semester is the season for pool parties, formals, fraternity weekenders, and music festivals-- all which you can do with your best friends. No more sitting in bed watching Snapchat stories of people doing crazy shenanigans. No more binge watching Grey's Anatomy and Gilmore Girls by yourself because now you'll be able to do those things with your friends. I think we're all ready for a fun and memorable semester with our girls.

The reunion: excitedly yelling when you see each other

If we thought being separated a week during Thanksgiving was a long time, well, Winter break was even longer. The feeling of being reunited is the most exciting and anticipating moment.

Catching up and not leaving a single detail out

All conversations start with, "How was your break? Tell me everything!" I think we all like to fast-forward through the talk about family vacations and get to the good stuff. Though your college best friends might not have grown up with you in the same hometown, they like to keep updated about the drama that happens there.

Wine nights

Heart to heart conversations? Drink wine. Bad day? Drink wine. Girls night? Drink wine. Don't have a special occasion to drink wine? Drink it anyways. Girls love wine. Trust me, we don't only buy 2 or 3 bottles. Each person in the group gets their own bottle. It's more fun that way.

Spring Break planning is already in the process

Havasu? Mexico? California? It all sounds like a fun time. As a college student, spring break is one of the best times to let loose and where you choose to spend will make or break. Let's be real, your best friends can make this week a fun time no matter where you all decide to go. Don't forget the occasional drama.

Endless photos

Every group of friends takes a reunion photo when they see each other. We take photos for every occasion. It's what we do. During syllabus week, we take photos every day. Believe me, our iPhones are filled with embarrassing and great photos of each other.

Pool party season. Need I say more?

What are the two most feared words in the English language? Pool Party. The week you get back to college is the week you and your girls go to the gym to get in shape. Time to show off the new bikinis you've all been dying to wear. Pool party season is one of the best parts of Spring semester, no doubt. Get ready for the nonstop Instagram posts. We're in for a fun time.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
