To My Best Friend and Future Roommate

To my best friend and future roommate:

They say that in life you find one absolute best friend. The person who no matter what you're going through, they will be there. The person you can trust with everything. The person that doesn't mind taking random trips with you to get groceries, hang out with you and your family, and vice versa. I have found mine: My best friend and future roommate for the college years to come.

When I was in 8th grade, I joined the high school marching band. I was terrified, absolutely terrified of the high school students. They seemed so big and in charge back then, but little did I know that one of them would be my best friend. I'll have to admit, we weren't the automatically clicked type of friends. At first, I thought you were snobby and rude, and I was a quirky little middle schooler. As the year went on, we become closer, and we became "twins". The majority of the time we're the same person.

Fast forward 4 years later, you're in college and I'm a senior in high school. These past 4 years, we've been through a lot together; breakups, long bus rides, talking when we were supposed to be playing in the band, and lots and lots of food runs. I can never thank you enough for always being there for me, and putting me in my place when I'm in a mood.

I don't think I could imagine anyone better to be my roommate, nor would I want anyone else to be. You're the best friend I could have ever asked for. We hang out so much, usually doing absolutely nothing, besides eating the food of course. Even though you frustrate me to no end, if it was anyone else I wouldn't put up with it. You will always be my best friend.

Whether you like it or not.

Love,

Your best friend.

I've known you your entire life. More than likely I held you in the first three days of it and at least one of us cried. Cousins are truly one of the best things in the world and while sometimes I complain about how many people crowd Grandma's living room on Christmas Eve, I wouldn't trade you all anything.

You are my best friends, the only people who can understand what it's like on Thanksgiving, and you are the spunkiest people I have ever met. But you as so so young, most of you are just now starting your adventures in the public education system. I mean, I'm so very young too. I'm not married, I don't have children, heck, I just started my adult life, but I do want to give you what little advice I have. My dears, these are the things I want you to know.

You are a senior in high school, you have made it to the final year that you have been looking forward to since the first day of freshman year. Whether this has been the worst or best four years of your life, appreciate it. You will never have these times back, you will never be in high school again. It is hard for someone still in high school to wrap their brain around, but there will be a day when you wish you could be in the shoes you're in right now. Here are 15 things I have learned being in college that I wish I knew as a high school senior:

Everyone, and I mean everyone has heard of the show "One Tree Hill". Many people think that this show is the best thing they've ever watched and others won't bother watching it because they know they'll get hooked. And yes, I know many people have written about this show before, but I couldn't resist. I could re-watch every season multiple times to the point where I can almost quote an entire scene. Trust me, once you start "One Tree Hill", you will be hooked. There's way too many reasons to list as to why you'll love this show, and these are just a few.

5 Ways To Bring Positivity Into Your Life When All You Want To Do Is Drown In Self-Pity

It seems like life has been serving up more bad than good and in all honesty, the only thing you want to do is crawl under your covers and hide from the rest of the world.

The first two weeks of classes have come to an end and they have been anything BUT easy. It seems like life has been serving up more bad than good and in all honesty, the only thing you want to do is crawl under your covers and hide from the rest of the world.

Although this seems like the best solution, it is also the easy way out. Take it from the girl who took basically a whole week off from her life because she just could not handle everything that was being thrown at her. This caused her to feel extremely lonely and even more stressed out for being behind in classes that JUST began.
