To my childhood best friend who became my soul mate

When I say soul mate, I don’t mean spouse, significant other, none of that jazz. I mean soul mate, the one who completes me. The one who has been through every up and down of my life. She’s not my girlfriend, but she is my other half. And I would give her the world if I could. I met my soul mate when I was six years old when I moved across the street from her.

I have no idea where I would be without you.

We have countless of late night sob sessions or long night cruises because sometimes life just sucks. You have walked me through so many milestones of my life. We've went through grade school, that awkward junior high phase, made it through high school, and now here we are in college living our dreams. We've obviously have had our fights, but I wouldn't want to call anyone else my best friend. And you have been there for my life shattering moments. Our junior year was a hard time for us, but with you gave me light in the dark. You understood what I was going through. You kept me sane (kinda, not really, we're crazy) and here I am today.

You have no idea how many times I bring you up in conversation.

Being 67 miles away from you, is one of the hardest things I have ever done. We obviously have made new friends at college, but all my friends here at school know you. I obviously have to talk about you because else am I suppose to do when I'm not with you.I never realized how many memories we had until I started telling them about you. And boy, do we have some crazy memories.

I'm silently rooting from you, always.

Every time I see you post something on Facebook about your life, I get extra happy for you. You deserve to be happy. I love getting updates on your life. I'm rooting for you even if your decision pisses me off, but I know you're stubborn behind is going to whatever you please. No matter where life takes you, don’t ever for a moment forget that I am always rooting for you. Just like Tyra was rooting for Tiffany.

I’m really upset you’re moving into an apartment.

But I’m so excited you're moving into an apartment. It’s just really upsetting that I won’t be able to walk my happy butt across the street when I see your car there. Just to let you know I cried. Even though I am being a little selfish here, I can’t wait to see your place and crash on your couch almost every weekend.

I just want to thank you.


There are not enough words in the world to express the countless times I need to thank you. Thank you for understanding I have a busy schedule and can’t always keep up with you. Thank you for being by my side even when I was still in the honeymoon phase of my relationship. Thank you for being weird with me. Thank you for being a sarcastic ass with me. Thank you for being you.


I'll keep you safe, you keep me wild.

I love you.

In honor of Mother’s Day, I have been thinking of all the things my mom does for my family and me. Although I couldn’t write nearly all of them, here are a few things that moms do for us.

They find that shirt that’s right in front of you, but just you can’t seem to find.

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.

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!
