I don't want this year to end!

College Life
1

<p>Hey everyone!
I'm currently a freshman, and I really don't want freshman year to end! I love the friends I have made, I love where I live, and I even love my classes. The reason I'm sad is I feel like everything is going to change next year. For example, my boyfriend (who currently lives in my dorm) is going to be living in his frat house. I'm going to live in my sorority house. My two best friends are living in a dorm about 20 minutes away. My other good friends are scattered throughout campus. I just feel like it will be really difficult to all get together and hang out like we used to.<br>
Partying is another thing - I feel like as a freshman, it's okay to go to frat parties and drink a decent amount and just have fun there. But next year, I don't know what the situation will be like.<br>
I honestly feel like the past eight months have been the most amazing time of my life. I know the next three years will be great too; it's just hard for me to recognize it now. </p>

<p>Anyone else have similar feelings? Who doesn't want freshman year to end?</p>

<p>That’s nice but you have to move on. We all can’t stay stuck in the past. If we could all stay stuck in the past, I’m pretty sure there would be no adults in this world? Who wouldn’t love to be a kid for the rest of their lives eh?</p>

<p>You have the 3 years left with them. Make the best of it.</p>

<p>I had the same feelings around this time last year. But you still have a lot of time with these people.
Yes, it’ll be harder to hang out. But this is one of the ways you find out who your friends are; your friends make an effort to hang out with you.</p>

<p>20 minutes away? That’s nothing. Wait till three years from now when people are moving across the country.</p>

<p>And if you’re a girl it’s always going to be ok for you to go drink at a frat party.</p>

<p>Don’t Worry, the next three years can be just as awesome as the first. Different, yeah, but still awesome.</p>

<p>you’ll make new friends.</p>

<p>**** that I need a break</p>

<p>I agree 100%.</p>

<p>OP. The real test of friendship is life after college. Anyone could be someone’s friend when there in the same vicinity and it’s convenient because you’re both in the same area, but the real test is seeing who’s going to make the effort to see you when it’s no longer convenient.</p>

<p>I second everything above. If you are real friends, you will make an effort to hang out. If not (which is okay), you will make new friends the same way you did this year. Either way, you will be okay next year. :)</p>

<p>Everything changes, but it will likely change for the better. And if you or your friends are too shallow to make a friendship last with a 20 minute distance then there’s something wrong there…</p>

Like, for serious, it’s never okay to drink after freshman year. I mean, like, the drinking age is 21, so, like, when you turn 21, it’s no longer cool to drink. Like, duh.</p>

<p>You’ll be a sophomore. The only difference from now is that your classes will be more difficult.</p>

<p>I am a SoCal resident that decided to attend Indiana University - Bloomington, when all of my friends are attending UC and Cal State schools, who is now hopefully transferring to NYU with a completely 100% fresh start. </p>

<p>Put yourself in my shoes and see if you have a better complaint. :p</p>
