10 Reasons Why I'm Thankful For My Best Friend

To think back to all the memories we have created and now cherish, puts me in a state of mind wondering what I would do without you. How do I thank you for being the other piece of my heart? You have become more than just my best friend, you have become the sister that I have never had. We have shared secrets, laughs, heartbreaks, etc. You are my rock - your inspiring motivational self is what I need in my life. You have done more for me than anyone could ever, and I just want to thank you for being the best you can be. I may not always tell you enough how thankful I am for you, and what an impact you have made in my life - but know you're so special to me.

Here are just 10 reasons why I am thankful for you being my best friend, but most importantly, being in my life. Although there are so many things I can thank you for, here are the most important -

1. Thank you for being there when nobody else was

You have shown me what a true friend is and no matter what time of day it is, you'll always be there. You are the most important figure in my life.

2. Thank you for loving me unconditionally

No matter what, you have loved me through it all. You have loved me on my bad days when the world seems like it's falling apart, and I don't even want to be bothered and you've loved me on days where I am all laughs and smiles.

3. Thank you for never judging me but also lecturing me when I need it

We've both come to the realization that neither of us are perfect. We've made mistakes, done things we shouldn't have done and even said things we shouldn't have said. But, you have always been there to support my decisions. Even when I am wrong you're there to give me the most uplifting advice and to encourage me to be the best person I can be. But along with that, you are honest and will lecture me when needed - and trust me on this one, we all need a little lecturing sometimes.

4. Thank you for being the shoulder to cry on when it seems like the world's falling apart

Through the heartbreaks, the over dramatic tears when school is stressing me out, or when someone pisses me off and I can't help but cry, you are there to comfort me with your kind words.

5. Thank you for always listening to me

No matter what I'm rambling on about, you are there to listen to everything that comes out of my mouth - even if you don't want too.

6. Thank you for pushing me and motivating me when I no longer can myself

You're always so motivating with any situation when I just want to give up, or I just don't have the energy anymore. As soon as I start becoming negative, you push all my negative emotions to the side, and help me realize why I am where I am.

7. Thank you for always telling me how proud of me you are

Sometimes I don't hear it enough how proud people are of me, and its good to hear it from someone so close to you - it's very uplifting and it feels so good.

8. Thank you for always sticking up for me

From middle school till now, no matter who has something to say to me, you are always there to put them in their place and let them know that I'm your best friend and to leave me alone.

9. Thank you for allowing me to be apart of your family

Having another family who loves you as their own is the best feeling in the world. Your family and yourself are the most amazing people and I wouldn't trade them for the world. You all are always so giving and loving - I appreciate everything you guys have done for me.

10. Last but not least, thank you for being my best friend, and the sister I never had

The bond we share is irreplaceable and I wouldn't want anybody else but you to go on crazy adventures with me, love me unconditionally, and lecture me when I'm wrong. Thank you for all you do for me, and being one of the best figures in my life. I am so lucky to have you.

I think the hardest thing about going away to college is figuring out how to become an adult. Leaving a household where your parents took care of literally everything (thanks, Mom!) and suddenly becoming your own boss is overwhelming. I feel like I'm doing a pretty good job of being a grown-up, but once in awhile I do something that really makes me feel like I'm #adulting. Twenty-somethings know what I'm talking about.

I went to a small high school, like 120-people-in-my-graduating-class small. It definitely had some good and some bad, and if you also went to a small high school, I’m sure you’ll relate to the things that I went through.

1. If something happens, everyone knows about it

Who hooked up with whom at the party? Yeah, heard about that an hour after it happened. You failed a test? Sorry, saw on Twitter last period. Facebook fight or, God forbid, real fight? It was on half the class’ Snapchat story half an hour ago. No matter what you do, someone will know about it.

Chandler Bing

I'm assuming that we've all heard of the hit 90's TV series, Friends, right? Who hasn't? Admittedly, I had pretty low expectations when I first started binge watching the show on Netflix, but I quickly became addicted.

Without a doubt, Chandler Bing is the most relatable character, and there isn't an episode where I don't find myself thinking, Yup, Iam definitely the Chandler of my friend group.

Working with the public can be a job, in and of itself. Some people are just plain rude for no reason. But regardless of how your day is going, always having to be in the best of moods, or at least act like it... right?

1. When a customer wants to return a product, hands you the receipt, where is printed "ALL SALES ARE FINAL" in all caps.

2. Just because you might be having a bad day, and you're in a crappy mood, doesn't make it okay for you to yell at me or be rude to me. I'm a person with feelings, just like you.

3. People refusing to be put on hold when a customer is standing right in front of you. Oh, how I wish I could just hang up on you!
