Dear Best Friend...

Thank you for popping into my life so unexpectedly, you don't know how much I needed someone to talk to. Who knew that just by talking about work/our coffee orders we would become best friends. It was my first week at college and I didn't know a single person so I went to the library to put my headphones in and watch some Netflix.

I remember it was crowded so I had to share a table but that's okay because it was with you. You had your headphones in so I was nervous to ask to sit with you but it was like you already knew what I was going to say because you waved to the seat.

Honestly, we still do that to this day (say the same thing at the same time). It's honestly scary seeing how similar we are and how close we have become in such a short amount of time. You introduced me to your friends and we all became very close. We would sit with the group every day before classes and just laugh until we were basically crying.

You introduced me to Mishnock Barn and Line Dancing which even though I've been going for a while it all still feels brand new. Everyone there is amazing when it comes to dancing as well as so incredibly nice.

One amazing individual I have met through the barn was Becca, our very own Odyssey Editor. Thank you for accepting me and being there for me when I needed a shoulder to cry on or someone to laugh with.

Halie we have been through a lot together, fake friends, friends we thought would always be there leaving, and having our money stolen by someone close to us. Everything we have gone through has helped us grow stronger individually and together even if we couldn't see it at the moment. Thank you for putting up with me when I'm acting crazy and hate everyone.

You are always there for me when I need to vent about the drama going on or when I want to go out for a spontaneous photo shoot. Your an amazing person who will go so far in life and I will be right there with you all the way. No matter what life throws are way we will be there to face it together and for that, I would just like to say thank you for the many memories we have and the many more we will make moving forward.

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.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.
