I wish I enjoyed this college more. It's all I've been talking about since February and look at me- I'm so ungrateful. Vic has called me every night and we talk for an average of three hours. Talking to him is the highlight of every day. 

It's the fourth day of the second week, and college has a lot of homework. I haven't gotten to really hang out with anyone or meet new people because of it. All I have for human contact is Becky, my slutty Jersey Shore wannabe roommate, Avery's messages and video chats, Tony's occasional check up texts, and Vic's calls. 

I'm studying for a Psych exam I have on Monday, when my computer says I have a video chat coming in, and I don't recognize the screen name. I reluctantly click 'accept', and the face that shows up makes me cover my mouth to keep from screaming in happiness.

"VIC!!!" I yell, grinning from ear to ear.

"JAI! I got a Skype!" he yells back.

"Thank GOD! Phone calls can only do so much." I laugh.

"Don't I know it." he replies.

All of a sudden Tony pops up onto the screen.

"JAI!" he yells. 

"Tony!" I yell back. People outside of my dorm room probably think I'm crazy. Or schizophrenic. *Worth it...*

"How's the big bad Columbia?" he asks, smirking. 

"It's kind of intense, actually. Lots of homework." I reply. 

"Oh yeah, I bet. We fucking miss you guys..." He frowns. I frown too. 

"I miss you guys, too.." 

"Vic and Jaime are fucking wrecks, they just sit with each other and talk about cute things you guys used to do. It's sad and sweet at the same time." Tony says. Vic elbows him, and Tony just smiles. 

"Oh, cute things, like what?" I ask. I smile and rest my head in my hand.

"Like when you're listening to someone, you bite your lip. And when you're thinking, you kind of stick your tongue out." Vic replies, smiling. I smile back. 

"I miss you so much. You have no idea." I say.

"I miss you too."

Tony rolls his eyes. "He's seriously like obsessed. Gets annoying." Vic punches him. I remember how much homework I have.

"Hey guys, I have shit loads of homework, and unless you wanna just sit and watch me, I should go." I say. 

"Bye!" Tony says, and his Skype window disappears. 

"I'll stay. I need to see your face some more." Vic smiles. I smile back at him before looking down at my textbooks and stacks of paper. Time to get to work.
