To My Best Friends Who Went To A Different College

Hallie Walker

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.

25 Beatles Lyrics: Your Go-To Guide for Every Situation

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

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.

Student Life

Waitlisted for a College Class? Here's What to Do!

Dealing with the inevitable realities of college life.

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.

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

And in the end, the love you take is equal to the love you make

The sun is up, the sky is blue, it's beautiful and so are you

Love is old, love is new, love is all, love is you

There's nowhere you can be that isn't where you're meant to be

Life is very short, and there's no time for fussing and fighting, my friend

He say, "I know you, you know me", One thing I can tell you is you got to be free

Oh please, say to me, You'll let me be your man. And please say to me, You'll let me hold your hand

It was twenty years ago today, Sgt. Pepper taught the band to play. They've been going in and out of style, but they're guaranteed to raise a smile

Living is easy with eyes closed, misunderstanding all you see

Can you hear me? When it rains and shine, it's just a state of mind

Little darling, it's been long cold lonely winter. Little darling, it feels like years since it' s been here. Here comes the sun, Here comes the sun, and I say it's alright

We danced through the night and we held each other tight, and before too long I fell in love with her. Now, I'll never dance with another when I saw her standing there

I love you, I love you, I love you, that's all I want to say

You say you want a revolution. Well you know, we all want to change the world

All the lonely people, where do they all come from. All the lonely people, where do they all belong

Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends

Hey Jude, don't make it bad. Take a sad song and make it better

Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away. Now it looks as though they're here to stay. Oh, I believe in yesterday

And when the brokenhearted people, living in the world agree, there will be an answer, let it be.

And anytime you feel the pain, Hey Jude, refrain. Don't carry the world upon your shoulders

I'll give you all I got to give if you say you'll love me too. I may not have a lot to give but what I got I'll give to you. I don't care too much for money. Money can't buy me love

All you need is love, love is all you need

Whisper words of wisdom, let it be

Blackbird singing in the dead of night, Take these broken wings and learn to fly. All your life, You were only waiting for this moment to arise

Though I know I'll never lose affection, for people and things that went before. I know I'll often stop and think about them. In my life, I love you more

Obviously the best superpower.

9. How to be my own, individual person.

10. How to work for what I want.

11. How to be great at giving directions.

12. How to be humble.

13. To be well-rounded.

14. How to be great at conflict resolution.

15. The beauty of getting outside and exploring.

16. To be prepared for anything.

17. That you don't always have to do it alone.

18. How to be creative.

19. To brush off gossip.

I have never been so thankful to know you.
