A Letter To My Best Friend

"The best kind of friendships are the friendships where you both believe in each other, defend each other, and believe the other deserves the world."

A Letter To My Best Friend
Brittany Jordan

Dear Best Friend,

We’ve been through a lot together in only the short time we’ve known each other. We had breakups and makeups, road trips, and big life decisions. You held my hand through it all, and I can’t thank you enough for it.

God has blessed me with such an amazing best friend; better than I ever deserve. I know you always argue with me when I say this, but it’s true. Nothing I could do in this lifetime would make me deserve such an amazing person in my life such as you. And nothing I do could repay you for everything you do.

Thank you for never judging me on my appearance. You see what I look like when I first wake up in the morning, and you never say a word about it. If we go out in public, we’re always the ones wearing our pajamas, no matter what time of day. I can always be myself around you, and that’s what true friendship is.

I know that you think you will be single forever, but that’s so not true. You are the strongest, kindest, most trustworthy person I know. You have a heart of gold and are so incredibly beautiful, inside and out. You help anyone in need and never ask for anything in return. I don’t want you to ever doubt your worth, and I know that one day you will find a guy that’s perfect for you.

I hope you know you can always come to me, no matter where I am in the world or what time it is. No matter if it’s good or bad. I will always be here to support you and to help in whatever way I can if you need it. Or just be the ear to listen, if that’s all you need.

I love you to the moon and back. Thank you for just being you. Thank you for being the one who keeps my secrets. Thank you for being my rock. Thank you for being my shoulder to cry on. Thank you for being my happiness.

As this crazy life continues and takes us down our own paths, I know we will always find our way back to each other. I am so excited to see where you go and the amazing things you will do. I am so proud of you already. I only hope that every person will one day find someone who illuminates their life like you do for me every single day.

I love you forever and always,

Your Best Friend

15 Times "Parks and Recreation" Summed Up Your Library Experience

"I've only slept nine hours over the past four days, so I'm right on the verge of a nervous breakdown." - Leslie Knope

Parks and Recreation excitedly gathered around a laptop at a table in an office setting.

The library. Club lib. The place every college student goes when they want to try and be a productive member of society. Who better to explain your experience than Parks and Rec?

1. When you've finally found the energy to leave your dorm room and walk into the lib like

Taylor Swift in orange dress playing a moss-covered piano on stage with bright lights.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

Students walking on a sunny college campus with trees and buildings.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.
