To My Best Friend I Just Met This Semester

Dear Best Friend,

Hi, I know we just met this semester but I know how much I already love you. I love that we immediately got along when we were introduced by a mutual friend. I love how much you love Disney. I love how you get me and do not let me get into my own head. I love how you already support my decisions even though most of them are stupid. I love how much you support me in general already. I love how close we already are. I love that I met you and that you're just as quirky as I am. I love that you understand that I am a chaotic mess all the time. I love when you say I'm a "good noodle". I love when you explain how you are feeling because honestly I want to listen and help you solve your problems. Basically, I love that you care about me and I am so happy we met.

When you meet someone usually you know if you're going to get along and become friends. I had that feeling when I met you in class. I knew we would be good together. It is always a great feeling to relate to someone and this is another property that drew me to you. Even though we have different backgrounds and stories I feel like we relate in ways that only best friends can.

Another thing about you is that I love how supportive you are. I call you and you answer. You tell me what's up and how I am acting. You tell me if I am being ridiculous and aren't afraid of what I will say if you try and talk sense into me. I promise you i need sense talked into me, remember I am a class A mess, but that's part of my charm. However, you know that fact.

What it all comes down to is that you'll indulge me and I will do the same for you. I honestly believe that we met so we could become best friends and see where our journey in college and our major will take us together. I know you will do great things and I have so much faith in you and your abilities. I appreciate you. You are you and that is what I like. I wish you would see the way I see you or how so many other people see you, because then you would be so much happier and prouder of yourself. However, I am here to help with that.

To end I just want to say thank you for being my best friend in this short amount of time and I honestly hope that you and I have more time and continue to be best friends.

Basically, Hi I love you.

Sincerely,

Deirdre

Anticipating The End Of Your First Semester, As Told By April Ludgate

"I don't want to do things. I want to not do things."

National Writers Society

NBC Universal

Everyone who is in college right now, or has ever been, knows the struggle of pulling in the strings at the last second. It seems impossible, and you have to do a LOT of things in order to assure your future for the next semester.

April Ludgate, historically, is a very annoyed person, and she doesn't hide it. Of all the times that I binged and re-binged "Parks and Rec," her attitude relates more and more to me.

To The Cheerful Person On Their Rainy Days, You Are Valid

The world is not always sunshine and rainbows, and you do not have to be, either.

Ask friends of mine to name a quality about me, and one a lot them will point out the fact that I am almost always smiling. I like to laugh and smile -- not to quote Buddy the Elf in April, but smiling is my favorite! It is probably my favorite go-to expression. However, what a lot of people do not see is that I have my down days. I have days when smiling and laughing is a real struggle, or when I have so much on my plate that going out of my way to behappy takes more effort than I have stored in me. Be it a symptom of college and growing up or a facet of life, I cannot always be content.

"I don't want to do things. I want to not do things."

1. When you look at the syllabus and realize there are only three weeks of the semester left; even though the first day was LITERALLY yesterday.

2. You look at your grades and realize they probably aren't as high as they should be, which is a terrifying realization.

3. When you think to yourself at night, "tomorrow, I will wake up early and go to the library ALL day, and, hell, maybe after I'll go to the gym for a little bit, just to push myself that extra mile."

4. Tomorrow actually comes. The inevitable and overpowering sense of procrastination is too strong to overcome.

5. But you DO end up going to the library. Not all day though, but still, a while. But no, you do not go to the gym. Still, you made an effort, so you decide to treat yo' self.

6. When you realize you need to schedule a meeting with your adviser because you need to sign up for classes next semester. But you also realize that since you waited until the last minute, you're going to get stuck with all of the crappy classes.

7. When you low-key try to slip into conversation with your professors that you need extra credit because you're that desperate.

8. When it's already the third time you've seen your adviser in two days because you have no damn clue what you're doing and need all the help you can get.

9. When you apply for a job associated with your major even though you have no experience, but you just want to dive headfirst into the deep end of adulthood and get it over with.

The world is not always sunshine and rainbows, and you do not have to be, either.

It would be so much easier to just pay someone to do it for you

7. Finding out your siblings took something from you

6. When your favorite character in your favorite TV series dies.

7. When that guy/girl you’ve been crushing on agrees to go on a date with you.

8. When you have so much to do, and such little motivation to do it.

9. When someone asks for your last fry.

10. When you try a new health-food craze.

11. When you get new clothing.
