First off, thank you for being my best friends. Thank you for sticking by my side when I’ve done stupid things and not turning your backs on me. I’m forever grateful that y'all are in my life. Now that we have started this new part of our lives, it’s hard to imagine y'all not being there every day, but somehow we have done it. We have branched off and moved away from each other, and it’s still sad to me.
Even though we are five months into college, I still miss y'all every day. I miss seeing your faces every day. I miss hearing your voices -- not on the phone, but in person. I miss being able to drive five minutes to see y'all. I miss our late night adventures and shenanigans. I miss y'all. But as we grow older, this is something that must happen. A chapter of life ends so that a new one can begin.
We knew that when graduation hit, it would be the last time we would be together in that environment. It was bittersweet to say the least. Even though it was sad, I wouldn’t do it any other way. Y'all made my high school experience one I will definitely remember. Thank y'all for accepting me for who I am. Thank you for making me feel better when I was sad or just feeling low. Thank you for being there.
Now that we are in college, I’m still grateful that you guys are still there. We all may be hundreds of miles away from each other, but I can still count on y'all to be there. I know that I can still call or text, and y'all will always answer. As we go through this whole college thing without each other, I hope you guys find friends that you can be just as close with. I hope y'all can find someone that you can create memories with, just like y'all did with me.
It makes me sad to think that someone will be making new memories with y'all and I won’t be there. Yes, I am a little jealous of your new friends because they get to experience your awesomeness all over again. But this is life, and we must face it. I pray that you have a great college year. You make wonderful friends and wonderful memories. I just want y'all to know that I’m grateful for y'all and you will always be my best friends.
P.S. You better not forget about me.
