    When you first got to campus four years ago, you were excited, but you were also scared shitless.

    You met people who just didn't seem to measure up to your high school friends...

    And you felt a little intimidated in your classes.

    You felt lonely at first, and you didn't know that this was going to work out.

    Whether you were "cool" in high school doesn't matter so much now...

    And you have a new family that is always there for you, even when you're stressed about finals or drunk crying.

    And thinking about your future is enough to send you into a full-scale mental breakdown.

    12.

    You try your best to apply for jobs...

    13.

    And even your friends get kind of concerned.

    14.

    Via tumblr.com

    Your parents and relatives constantly tell you about the poor economy...

    But what you're most worried about is leaving this perfect sanctuary you've built for yourself at school.

    16.

    You start to get nostalgic about leaving your friends...

    17.

    And make them promise to live with your forever, even if you get married.

    18.

    You realize you are going to miss the excuse to drink in excess whenever you want...

    19.

    And getting into shenanigans with your roommates.

    But in, the end, you know it'll all be okay...

    Because you've had the best four years of your life.
