It's always a bit awkward making new friends. Especially in a new place, a few hours away from home. But believe me, eventually you will find a few close friends. First, you'll be cautious about which secrets you tell and be careful not to be too annoying. But eventually the dam will break. During a late night Sonic or Walmart run you will show your crazy side. Thankfully, all your friends are crazy too. This is when you know your college friends have become family. Here are some signs to look out for.

1. There's a specific moment when everyone knew.

2. Your room is their room.

3. Sometimes they don't understand, but they still love you.

4. You love the same things.

5. They're just as crazy as you.

6.They're always there for you.

7. You're supportive of each other.

8. You both could secretly work for the CIA.

9. They are "your people."

10. Can you say co-conspirators?

11. They accept you for who you are (even the dancing to "Shake It Off" at 2 a.m. you).

12. But in the end, everyone knows...
