Dear Long Distance Best Friends,
There are so many things that I want to tell you but over text or Facetime is not the place to do it. I wish you were all here with me but distance makes the heart grow fonder.
- Thank you for being my worst critics but my absolute number one fans. Without you I would not be half the person I am today. Thank you for always pushing me through the hard, long nights of college when I buried waist deep in papers, without you I would have drowned. Thank you for constantly checking up on me because being away from home and you guys has clearly not been the easiest on me.
- I know you will make new best friends and that somedays I will be just a faint face in the back of your mind and others your thoughts will be occupied by my stupid jokes. I hope that your new friends will treat you with the utmost respect because you deserve nothing less than perfection. If they don’t treat you how I would treat you then please have the slightest bit of self-awareness to leave that toxic friendship because then that is all you will expect.
- When we return on breaks know that thing will have changed and there is nothing we can do about it. I will come back with words you have never heard before and you the same. DO NOT get frustrated when I say “wicked” or “mad” or any other New England term because it comes naturally in the habitat. All of my stories will be with people you have no idea and I do appreciate you trying to memorize all of their names even though 6 of them are all named Matt and 3 of them are all named Chris, it will only get easier from here.
- Never forget that I am proud of everything you have accomplished and all that you are to become because any accomplishment, no matter how small, is a huge deal! Even when you fail an assignment know that I will be in your corner, rooting you on because I will NEVER give up on you, especially on your hardest days.
- If we grow distant, please know that I am trying my best to keep up with you and we could go days without talking. Please understand that I did not forget about just our schedules do not line up but I am ALWAYS thinking about you.
I love you all so much and no one could ever replace you. Forever and always my loves!
