Are We Still Best Friends Forever?

I think so. I hope so.

Are We Still Best Friends Forever?

Dear best friend,

What happened to us? We used to talk everyday, about all the important and stupid stuff. You knew everything about my life and I knew everything about yours. Now I feel like I don't even know you. Every time I see a post from you or hear something about you, all it does is make me sad. It makes me sad because I think of the people we used to be. College has changed us. Even though we're 188 miles away from each other I still thought we would talk. I thought I'd get all the stories about the amazing things you're doing. I thought you'd be curious about what's going on in my life. Yet, somehow here I am 188 miles away from you feeling like you don't care anymore.

I miss the times where we were never separate. We were the true definition of two peas in a pod. Your mom felt like a second mom to me and my family took you with open arms. I miss the days of wasting hours at the mall aimlessly walking around. The trips to JoAnn's to make blankets, even though we had a million (you can never be too warm). I miss the sleepovers that ended with you falling asleep early. Blasting Hunter Hayes and singing at the top our lungs not caring who heard us because we were having fun. I miss a lot of things that we used to do.

It hit me the other day that I shouldn't care as much as I do. But that's just the person I am. I don't send you a million text messages anymore because I don't want to be a bother. The last time we talked like best friends was Christmas break. I guess I'm just lost because I don't know what to do anymore. I don't know if you still want me in your life or if you just want to move on.

That one word has changed us so much. College has made us into different people. I guess it's just time for me to wake up and realize our friendship will never be like it was in high school. We've become too independent people, and as much as it sucks that we aren't as close as we were, I think a lot of people go through this. I hope that we can work on our friendship and try to make up for lost time, but I'm beginning to loose hope of being your best friend again.

If you want to work on our friendship just let me know. Even if it takes a long time. I'll still be here when you come back. You'll always be my best friend in my heart. Thanks for all those years, laughs, and countless memories.

Love,

Your best friend <3

It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. But also a time of stressing over the perfect gift.

It's officially December. There is less than a month of 2024, and I still feel like yesterday was summer. Now comes the merriest time of the year, the Christmas season.

Everyone has been waiting for this time of year since mid-October (which is way too early, in my opinion) or before. It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. A lot of times when I ask friends and family what they want, I get a lot of "I don't know" or "I don't care."

Find excitement in your life and start exploring wherever you are right here, right now.

mu bucket list

I was sitting at my cubicle, now that I am an adult, looking at the rain pouring down on the windowsill, bumming on life, wishing for the rain to just stop for a full day.

There are moments where we count down the hours until work is over and how many more days till the weekend, and this many weeks until something exciting. Or something like that? Well, I was bumming because my next day off from work is not until Memorial Day weekend, which is not until the end of May. And since this is my first year out of college being a “real person,” I am totally missing the winter, spring and summer breaks. I am sure all of us have felt this way even if just for a hot minute…

Great Value Colleges

If you go to or went to Kent State, then more than likely you have done or will do some of these things.

1. You’ve slipped and fallen on the ice at least once.

The winters at Kent are brutal, and while the heated sidewalks and some great snow boots are always a help, there’s no chance you won’t bust it on the ice at least once in your four plus years at school.
