An Open Letter To My Long Distance Best Friend

Just about three years ago I was lucky enough to become friends with the most caring, loving, funny, generous, and selfless person. Over time, she has become more than a friend She has become my best friend and in most aspects, a part of my family.

Even though she is just about 800 miles away from me most of the time, I know no matter what she is always there for me and I know that she knows the same goes for her. I literally can count on her for anything. Something so minor as not knowing how to do my hair or makeup. Sometimes not knowing what shoes to wear or what sweater. Even something so serious as me crying and I just need her to talk me through it. Those 800 miles never get in the way of anything.

There any many things I would like to thank her for but there are just so many things you do for me that the list can go on and on.

Always being a phone call away

No matter what time it is, where you are, what you’re doing, or who you’re with, if I call, text, or Facetime you I know that I will get an answer in just about a minute. Thank you for the texts every day to tell me how much you miss me and love me, and the never-ending facetime calls, I love you.

For always being honest with me

You literally get a play by play of my day so you know all the drama, all the little details, and every move I made. Thank you for always being non-biased of the issue I have come across and always telling me if I was wrong. Although you aren’t here you are always the person that gives me the best advice. Also, thanks for always giving me the best advice and knowing what’s in my best interest. I know that since you’re not always here you just want to see me happy.

Never getting sick of me

You would think since we talk pretty much 24/7 you’d get sick of me, my attitude, my jokes, my hyper-ness, my laughing or my mood swings. NOPE. Thanks for always dealing with me. Sometimes you deal with me more than my friend’s at home do.

Always reminding me that you're always standing right behind me

Sometimes when I’m feeling down and I feel like the world is too much to handle, thank you for the never ending paragraphs reminding me how much you love me and how you’re always going to be here for me. Thank you for standing behind me in the worst times and the happiest times. You’re the best.

For making every time I see you special

No matter what it is, you always make your visits special and make me the most excited to see you. Thank you for the countdown, the surprises, the ice-cream dates, the movie dates, the music dates, the concert dates, the sleepovers, the hours of gossip, the tips on nail polish, holding me when I’m crying, making me laugh when I’m sad, the never ending jokes, but most importantly making each visit the very best.

Thank you for being the best human. I love you most.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.

1. It's easy to be fooled by shiny things.

Tamatoa created a liar filled with shiny things simply for the purpose of tricking fish to enter and become his food. He too experiences a lesson in how easy it is to be tricked by shiny things when Moana distracts him by covering herself in glowing algae so Maui can grab his hook.
