How to make friends?

I'm in college and I don't really have much friends who I constantly keep in contact with. I make a lot of friends during the semester, but once the semester is over, we don't even keep in contact with each other anymore. How do I make friends that I can constantly talk to on a daily/weekly basis? Sometimes I feel lonely. There is only one friend who I text every day, but he's literally the only person I text. I want to have a nice group of friends. I want to be able to text more than just one person. I don't have trouble making friends during the semester, but it feels like the friendships just die when the semester ends. Anyone else going through something similar?

It's winter break right now and it just feels so lonely staying at home all day and playing video games by myself.

log into maplestory and do some PQ's or train with a party and add them to your buddy list.

Make a friend that plays the same video games as you; or find someone that you feel mutually enjoys your company with you. Friendship is a joint-effort on both parts but I believe that someone out there is willing to put in the time and effort as hard as you do. Find them.

^ join a club
intramurals
volunteer for a cause
get a job somewhere (if you can during your studies - easier during the summer)
etc.

Basically pursue your interests outside of the classroom (interests that involve other people).
(and actually make an effort to keep in touch with people in the process)

Join a club or something and make friends there. With a common interest, you'll have reason to talk to each other even after the semester ends. ^^
