They say that lifelong friends are the ones you meet at this point in your life; however, it can be tough meeting new people in a setting where you can only recognize a few familiar faces. This new beginning would not have been as exciting if you hadn't been there for the bumps and bruises along the way. College life is definitely not a simple adjustment, but you made it a little bit easier. So naturally, I thought a thank you letter was necessary.
