Dear Guy Best Friend,

Although we talk quite a bit, and hangout often, I know I don’t give you the recognition that you deserve. There are so many things that you do for me that you don’t have to, but yet you choose to anyway. I want you to know how truly grateful I am for you and how much I enjoy having you as a best friend.

So best friend- Thank You.

Thank you for the all of the random adventures. No matter if its 2 in the afternoon or 2 a.m. you're always up for little road trips, Walmart runs and ice cream. I know I can count on you to have my back to do some dumb things with.

Thank you for the laughs. When I’m with you, I know I’m guaranteed to have endless laughs. When I’m in a bad mood I know I can count on you to cheer me up, or at least try.

Thank you for being there through all of the ups and downs. You are there all hours of the night when I need someone to talk to and always give me your honest opinion. You’ve stuck through all of the girl drama, mood swings, and my indecisive decisions and I know that takes a lot.

Thank you for never judging me. You’ve seen me when I look homeless and still accept me as me. Even when I say or do something really embarrassing, you are still somehow proud to be my friend.

Thank you for being a constant wingman. Having you as a best friend can be tough when I see a cute guy out in public, but I know I can count on you for being the best wingman possible.

Thank you for always giving me a male perspective. When I don’t know what to say to a guy, how to dress, or just need a guy’s opinion on something, I know you’ll give me a brutally honest answer.

Thank you for always supporting me. With every decision I make, you are always right there next to me encouraging me. You want me to be successful and the best me that I can be.

Thank you for breaking the stereotype of “guys and girls can’t be best friends without liking each other”. Our friendship is one of my favorites and is one of the most genuine things in life. You are like a brother and we clearly act like it with all of our petty arguments.

Ultimately thank you for just being you. Without you, life would be such a quieter, sad place, and I’m beyond thankful for you. I know I can be a lot to handle and of course annoying, so thank you for putting up with me.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.
