An Open Letter To My Friend Transferring Schools

I’m sorry that our college wasn’t the right fit for you and it didn’t work out. Sometimes things don’t work out, and you have try to something else. Hopefully, at your new school you find what you are looking for, you meet your potential, and it meets your expectations. I know you’ll make friends quickly because of how friendly you are and easy to talk to.

The college is lucky to have you, and I know you’ll do amazing there. Even though I’ll miss you a lot, you have to do what’s best for you, and I completely understand why you are transferring. I wish you nothing but the best at your new school! I can't wait to hear all about your stories and experiences as you start the next chapter of your life!

You’ll be missed in our group but not forgotten and never replaced. College won’t be the same without you. I know we will never find a roommate as funny as you are (and have no idea if will even be forced to have another roommate, hopefully not). I will miss complaining about classes with you and going to the basketball games with you. I’ll miss going on crazy adventures past midnight and listening to your hilarious stories. I'll miss your commentary when we are watching "The Bachelor." Women Will won't be the same club without you and your laugh out loud experiences. I don't know how I'll survive Golf Party without you. I just want to thank you for being such a great friend and helping me survive freshman year of college. I can’t believe that we have only known each other for a year, it feels like so much longer! I’m so glad that I met you! And don't worry, you're stuck in the group chat for life!

But I cannot wait to visit you at your new school and am excited for you to visit us. Fortunately, you’re only transferring to a school that’s only a 45-minute train ride away, so we can visit each other without a hassle and even for a daily trip. I'm excited to visit you and explore Boston! It is going to be so much fun! Thank God for technology, too because I have a feeling we will FaceTime you a lot.

Anytime you want to visit, our floor is always free. And so begins the athletic rivalry between our schools! Be prepared for me to cheer against you and maybe we could even watch a game with you! Even though you are transferring, I know that we will still have a lot of adventures visiting each other and hopefully traveling somewhere for spring break next year. Plus we’ll have to do some more road trips -- I'm thinking Montreal next!

This isn’t goodbye. This is a see you soon.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
