An Open Letter To My Best Friend

And to imagine that we once hated each other

An Open Letter To My Best Friend

Dear "Turboslut" (Gymbody),

We have only associated with one another for just over a year, and before that we hated each other. But there was something about you that made me want to attempt to befriend you. Befriending you was the best thing I could have done. You are my other half, and I know that even hundreds of miles away, I still feel close to you.

We have had some wild adventures, adventures that I could never talk about. We have the same sick sense of humor, something that others around us will never understand. You are greater than I, and you have these goals set in front of you that I only wish I could set in front of myself. You are the wild to my boring. You keep me on my toes. I tone you down, but you keep my life interesting.

You are greater than you can imagine, and I hope one day you can open your eyes to see that. You will amount to something amazing, and even though you don't believe it yourself, my family and I can see you on the brink of success.

I wish we would have crossed paths sooner, but the timing we had was impeccable. We went from enemies to frenemies to friends in the matter of a week, and I couldn't have it any other way. Though it may seem hard at times to connect with me being away from school, the moment we are together again, it's like nothing has changed. Thank you for giving the best year and couple months I've had in a long time. I can't wait to see you again.

Love,

Swolebody

Thank You on wooden blocks

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

Everybody gets sick once in a while, but getting sick while in college is the absolute worst. You're away from home and your mom who can take care of you and all you really want to do is just be in your own bed.

Being sick in college is really tough and definitely not a fun experience. Here are the 15 stages that everyone ends up going through when they are sick at college.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!
