7 Reasons Going To The Same School As Your S.O. Is Far Better Than A Long-Distance Relationship
Sam Margolis

In This Article:

A few days into my freshman year of college, I started dating my girlfriend, who I have now been with for almost 14 months.

Going to the same school is honestly one of the best things that could have happened to us, especially because we definitely would not even know each other otherwise. It is not only convenient location and distance-wise, but it has also brought us closer together and is the core reason for all the memories we have made together, and will continue to make for the rest of our time here as students.

Here are just a few of the many reasons why going to the same school as your significant other makes for the ultimate college experience:

1. You can see each other whenever you want.

Sam Margolis

If you both live on campus, you'll always be just a few minutes away from each other, which obviously calls for 24/7 cuddles.

2. You can celebrate holidays together (even if they fall on weekdays).

Sam Margolis

Spooky season is especially fun with your college boo.

3. It's easier to plan hangouts and go out on dates.

Sam Margolis

Spontaneous dates are the best dates.

4. You can have quiet nights in together.

Sam Margolis

I'm always down for a movie night.

5. You can see each other between classes, and even walk to your next class together.

Sam Margolis

And maybe even grab some food on campus together in between.

6. They can come over to make you feel better when you're sick.

Sam Margolis

I'm a huge baby when I get sick, so I'm grateful that my girlfriend is nearby to take care of me and bring me snacks.

7. You can cook meals together.

Sam Margolis

I couldn't tell you how many times we cooked pasta together, but it's delicious every time.

AI music threatens creativity

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
