To My Best Friends, Thank You

​ “You will never be completely at home again, because part of your heart always will be elsewhere. That is the price you pay for the richness of loving and knowing people in more than one place.” -Miriam Adeney

To My Best Friends, Thank You
Nicole Gambino

Not everyone is lucky enough to say they found their best friend in 6th grade. Thankfully, I can say I not only found one best friend at the age of 11, but two. You both deserve to hear this from me everyday. Thank you for your friendship and all that you do for me..

Thank you for being the two most selfless and down to earth people I have met thus far in life. You guys have never failed to drop anything/everything for me, and you would do just about anything to help someone out. Both of your hearts are filled with nothing but love and kindness.

Thank you for having that crazy, goofy personality. This is easily my favorite thing about the both of you. Whether it’s hideous double chin selfies that you send me once a week, awful dance moves, or overall acting like a weirdo, you never fail to make me laugh till I cry. Sometimes I catch myself watching old videos of the both of you making a fool out of yourself just for a good laugh. Even from a distance, you tend to make my bad days better.

Thank you for making me feel loved and good enough. On some of the worst days of my life, you were always their to cheer me up and keep me going. You consistently put positive thoughts in my head.

Thank you for being spontaneous. I know I can always count on the both of you if I randomly wanted someone to get a tattoo with me or possibly jump out of a plane. Even if sometimes I have to beg you to do something a little reckless, you never let me down. I was definitely blessed to find two people who are just as crazy as I am.

Thank you for always being a phone call away. Even though college has taken us in different directions, you’ve both always remained right over the phone if I needed you. Whether it's been to talk about life, vent my heart out, or cry for hours, you've always answered and gave me your full attention.

And lastly, Thank you for all the advice. From problems with school, to family, or boys, you've helped me out with it all. You never sugarcoated anything or pushed me in the wrong direction. You were always there when no one else was. You told me the truth, as hard as it was to hear. The honest advice and opinions throughout the years have helped me make so many better decisions.

The both of you have no doubt changed my life and formed me into the person I am today. It’s said that you find your best friends in college, but I know for a fact that I found my lifelong friends 8 years ago in middle school. I don't know how or why I was so blessed to have met you guys at a young age. Being able to experience the true meaning of friendship throughout middle school and high school was such a gift. There’s no doubt in my mind that I’ll be at your weddings and watch you both grow into successful, beautiful adults.

I love you both.

Thank you for everything.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
