When I left for college, I told my parents I wasn't coming home for six weeks. And I didn't. My parents wanted me to get a good start in my classes, make new friends, and learn to live on my own. However, I talked to my parents every day on the phone and let them know what was going on in my life. As a junior now, I don't talk to them quite as frequently on the phone, but through other ways such as text messages and e-mails.
