Everyone says that college will be the best years of your life. For me, I’d have to disagree. I remember being so stressed out in high school because my parents wouldn’t be pleased with getting anything lower than a 98 on my report card. But I had things to do that I liked doing, like softball and band, and I had the cooolest friends ever! Even though I thought I was unhappy from all the stress, I was actually happy compared to now.

Last year was my first year at OSU. I lived with my best friend, since the 5th grade, and my lovely sister, Amanda. Everything was going okay but it just ended up going downhill from there. My “best friend” and I no longer speak to each other and I don’t really have any close friends to talk to other than my family and my boyfriend. I mean it’s nice to have them but sometimes I think it’d be nice to have a friend.

Everyone says not to room with your best friends because the relationship will be ruined. I didn’t believe that and I kind of still don’t. I just learned who my real best friend was. It’s funny because even though my old friends have treated me like crap, I still think about them and I still care about them too.

It’s hard for me to make friends in college. I’ve tried tons of times and haven’t had much luck. Those friendships stay in the classroom as usual. Hopefully one day I’ll make some friends. Plus it’s so hard to have time to. I feel like I’m constantly doing homework. Maybe it will be easier when I’m done with “the best years of my life.” I can’t wait until it’s over.
