An Open Letter To My Person In College

I Couldn't Have Asked For A Better Person To Get Me Through College

An Open Letter To My Person In College

I have met a lot of people in college, people who have changed my life, who have helped me through impossible classes, who are in multiple classes with me, and with whom I have built relationships with. As I am starting my senior year, I have realized the importance of finding your person in college, and what they truly mean. My life is truly changed for the better! I know that I have not taken the time to tell you what you mean to me and how thankful I am for you, so here goes nothing.

Dear Person,

First off, thank you, thank you, thank you, for coming into my life. It is no mystery that college is an extremely stressful and scary time for most people. The fact that you came into my life and actually chose to stay during this crazy stage, means the world to me.

Thank you for not leaving me during my crazy mood swings that came during midterms and finals week.

Thank you for the endless dinner/coffee/lunch dates that were supposed to be for homework, but ended up being a social date.

Thank you for letting me vent about assignments that I thought were silly, professors that seemed impossible, and classes that made me want to drop out of college.

Thank you for keeping me on track with my assignments. Lord only knows that I wouldn't have done all of my homework if you hadn't been there to keep me organized.

Thank you for getting to class early and saving me a seat in the front row because you know I can't see, nor pay attention if I sit anywhere else, and for being willing to sit in the front with me.

Thank you for sitting in the hallway with me before class, whether we are cramming for a test or just chatting, I value that time more than you know.

Thank you for accepting my laziness and driving me to my car even though it's in the same parking lot as yours.

Thank you for being on the same wave length as me. I seriously think we share the same brain...we can communicate through just a look. It's freaky and awesome...but freaky!

Thank you for always being on my side and rooting for me, exams, projects/presentations, and anything in between. I know that I will always have at least one cheerleader in my corner.

Most of all thank you for being you, MY person. You have gotten me through so many hard times in this stage of my life, some problems that you didn't even know about, just by being you and knowing that you're in my life helps me!

I am so glad that our paths crossed through this crazy time in our lives and I can only hope and pray that this relationship... sisterhood, can continue on for the rest of our lives.

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.
