An Open Letter To My Best Friends

To the people that know me to my core and still choose to stick around.

It’s so fun having a best friend like you and I think of myself as the luckiest girl in the world because I have you as one of my biggest supporters no matter what.

First off, I would like to say thank you. Thank you for putting up with me, thank you for laughing with me, thank you for always putting a smile on my face, thank you for telling me how it is and always being straight up with me. Thank you for laughing at my jokes even when we both know they’re not funny. Thank you for helping me get through my struggles. Thanks for making me study. Thank you for making me who I am, you are the best.

I appreciate you more than you will ever know and I honestly don’t know what I would do if you weren’t in my life. You have helped me with so much, especially in the past few months. You have seen me at my best and seen me at my worst. Thank you for all the advice, memories and for sticking around even when I’m a mess.

I want you to know that you can come to me for anything and everything. Whether it’s 2am and you’ve got a lot on your mind or at three in the afternoon and you need to tell someone about the cute dog you just saw; I’m here. I want to hear about your life, I want you to share your stories with me. I want to be apart and I want to have each other to make fun of the jerks we encounter together.

When I think about you and all the memories we have made all I can do is smile because of how blessed I am to have you do life with me. Our spontaneous adventures, long phone calls, dinner dates, movie nights and nights that turn into mornings make me so happy to look back on.

You are an amazing person and I hope you know that. You inspire me to be a better person and teach me so much about life. I hope you know your self-worth and if you don’t or if you ever question it, I’m always here for a confidence booster.

Embrace your individuality and independence. You are an incredible human and you deserve the world. I have loved watching you do life and I can’t wait to continue to see the amazing things that happen to you and help you through the hard times.

Thank you for being my person, my rock and my best friend.

I love you to the moon and back.

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.

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. It becomes harder and harder to focus in classes and while doing assignments as the days get closer. The winter has been lagging, the days are short and dark, and no one is quite themselves due to lack of energy and sunlight. Let's face it: life is ten times better in the summertime.
