14 Feelings You Will Only Understand If You Have Long-Distance Best Friends
Josh Applegate

College classes just started again for most students, and a lot of you are experiencing college for the first time. It's overwhelming but full of excitement! For most of us, this week is our second or third week of long lectures and late nights. (Probably all on our 20th K-Cup box.) We are just now getting adjusted to our schedules and workload, and stress is starting to overcome the best of us.

In the midst of these low moments in our lives, we begin to miss home more and more as each day passes, especially for those attending college out of state. We all have some friends from middle and high school who scattered to different colleges, all of whom we miss and love dearly. Here are some feelings everyone can relate to during long distance friendships.

1. When you and your friends say goodbye for the semester (Until breaks).


2. It's been a couple of days and you guys are going through withdrawals from the common things you did together so you reminisce while looking at pictures.


3. When you guys try to schedule a Facetime call but life gets in the way.



4. When you guys are in constant communication



5.Getting Separation Anxiety.



6. When they visit and you get to introduce them to your new friends.

7. When you see other people take a Snapchat of your friends, and it makes you miss them even more.


8. Celebrating birthdays and their accomplishments without them.


9. When Facebook and Timehop notify you of the memories you guys share.



10. Dreaming and making plans for when you guys finally see each other again.



11. When all your new friends tell you to stop texting so much when it's really just your friends from home.



12. Or when they think you're texting a boy, but it's just friends from home. And you're just like, "I'm too unattractive for that...



13. Calling each other during random parts of the day (Even in the middle of the night).



14. When it's a long break and you get to see them for a long period of time

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.

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.

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.
