I am sixteen and one of my closest friends is leaving for college in a few weeks. All of a sudden it just sort of hit me that she won't be around anymore. My friend has been like an older sister to me and we are really close. I have known her since I was little and she has always been there for me. My friend is only gong away to school an hour away from home and I get my driver's license in a month and my friend said I can come up and visit. I just think its going to be weird not having her around. We hang out everyday and tell each other everything. Last night, we were hanging out and we both started talking about how weird it will be when she leaves for school. My friend told me that I can call her whenever and that she knows we will stay close. But now, I feel really sad. I feel like crying even though she isn't going to leave for another 2 weeks. What can I do to feel better?
