An Open Letter To My Best Friend Who Became My Boyfriend

To this day, I have never been more grateful that every day I get to spend with you. Every day is an adventure and for that, I can never replace. When we first met, I was completely shy. I was in a new place and you made me laugh and smile. That day when we first talked, I saw you look right through me. I never knew that we would be where we are today. We are so far and we have much farther to go.

Without you, I would not have discovered who I have been this whole time. You have helped me become a better version of myself. While we have been together, you have seen me through my highest highs and lowest lows. Now it's my turn to return the favor. You have been my best friend first. I really have never had to worry about anything with me. You take care of me greatly. I could never repay you for the things you have done for me.

I am thankful because more than anything you have inspired me to push to be better. Throughout the course of our relationship, we started out as friends and quickly became more than that. Without that first day we met, without me choosing OU, without me choosing meteorology as a major, I would have never come to love someone more than myself. There are not enough words in this world to describe how thankful I am of you.

You graduate in a matter of months and I will never be able to tell you how terrified I am of that day. Ultimately, I know you have to leave and get on with your life. I know this day is the most exciting time for you, but it is the day I am dreading most. It means that our time together will become short and more cherish-able. This is the time where we will shine together. I can't wait to see the next chapter for us and how we will continue to grow as a couple.

To my best friend: I can't wait to stand by your side through all of this, to support you through all your adventures and be your biggest fan!

To my boyfriend: I love you and the journey is just beginning for us. We have had some rough patches regardless of them, I will always be there through thick and thin for you.

I cannot be more thankful to have my two favorite people in one person. Not everyone is so lucky to have someone like that, and I do, with you I have it all. I love you.

Dear High School Friend Group,

My sweet angels, where would I be without you guys. We all grew up together because we either met in middle school or high school and watched each other grow up and get "old." We got to go to prom together and then graduate together. Then watched each other as we continued our lives in college, joining sororities and meeting people who will impact our lives forever. It all has happened so fast.

Oh college, we can’t live with you, but we can’t live without you. It’s a love/hate relationship, really. College is an experience that no one can ever prepare you for, and maybe that’s a good thing. You never really expect any of the things that college encompasses until you are there. College is fun, but don’t have too much fun. C’s get degrees, but they don’t get you into graduate school.

Blair Waldorf

The "Gossip Girl" series may be over, but Blair Waldorf's iconic character lives in our hearts forever. Blair was the queen of the Upper East Side, and a character you either loved or hated. She taught us everything we needed to know about life, love and of course, how to score a Chuck Bass. So the next time you feel a bit lost and are in need of guidance, look no further than to the Queen B herself.

As I spend my Sunday avoiding my homework and other adult responsibilities, I realized that I've watched this series over and over about a million times. Sadly, there isn't a Blair quote I don't know, so I came up with a list of a few favorites. You know you love her...xoxo

College is an endless cycle of crappy, sleepless nights, tedious, boring lectures, and hours of never-ending piles of homework.

Summer: a time (usually) free from school work and a time to relax with your friends and family. Maybe you go on a vacation or maybe you work all summer, but the time off really does help. When you're in college you become super close with so many people it's hard to think that you won't see many of them for three months. But, then you get that text saying, "Hey, clear your schedule next weekend, I'm coming up" and you begin to flip out. Here are the emotions you go through as your best friend makes her trip to your house.
