We may be far apart, but you're still my best friend.

An Open Letter To My Best Friend Who Goes To A Different School
Austyn Gorski

I miss you a lot, and I know you know it. Considering the fact that we always send each other the ugliest snapchats, the funniest texts and links to hilarious vines. It's weird because I have lived so close to you for my whole life, yet here we are as far apart as ever. I haven't seen you in months.

But wow are you still weird, and you haven't changed a bit. I can tell you the most random of things, and your response is still very much appreciated. I miss the car rides we have together while blaring Paramore and drinking RaceTrac slushies (we probably drank four of those a day during the summer). I miss binge watching “Harry Potter” with you, and spending New Year’s watching movies and eating everything in sight. I miss being on the field with you, and being able to lead a team by each other's side.

But now we're in college, and life is a lot different. I have made new friends that I know I will have forever, and I have made many great memories with them as well. Now before you get jealous and think you've been replaced I want to tell you the exact reason why this letter is to you.

You haven't been replaced, you are irreplaceable.

Our friendship didn't just happen so it could be ended when we went to college (I know that for a fact). Our friendship happened because I learned what true friendship was when I met you. I never had a best friend before you, and I remember telling you that in my basement while we were probably watching Harry Potter for the 100th time. You have been there when I got my first boyfriend, you were there when I needed to vent about a lot of unimportant things, and I know you'll always be there.

So even though we are many, many miles apart. You are still my best friend. And it has truly been an irreplaceable adventure to walk through so many years of life with you.

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

Her sister was a member, her mom was a member, all of her aunts were members, and her grandma was a member. She has been waiting her whole life to wear these letters and cried hysterically on bid day. Although she can act entitled at times, you can bet she is one of the most enthusiastic sisters.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September.
