Dear My Maid of Honor

Because I Wouldn't Want Anyone Else By My Side

Dear My Maid of Honor,

Thank you for everything you've done for me and everything you will do for me in the future. Thank you for being there when no one else and thank you for being my best friend. You were there through my awkward years and strange times. You were there during all of my laughs and through many of the tears. You were there when I obsessed over every new crush and helped me get over every heartbreak. You were there through insane life choices like what color I'm dying my hair or what to order when we do out to eat. Honestly though, I'm happy you made the choice to become my friend back in high school. I'm forever grateful for you and your ability to put up with my weirdness, my endless rambling and always making me feel like I had someone to turn to.

Okay so I may have not gotten the ring yet, but let's face it we both know that it's coming... eventually. Maybe even sooner than later, but honestly you knew for years now that I would be asking you to stand there and be next to me as I marry the man of my dreams. I wouldn't want anyone else by my side with all the planning, and adventuring, especially with picking out the dress.

I'm thankful I had you when I was first interested in this guy. You gave me great advice and constantly told me I was ready to try, even though I didn't think so. The advice you gave me was to give everyone a chance but never to jump in head first unless they were willing to jump in with you. And well I'm glad listened to you. You always gave me the best advice, though sometimes I wouldn't take it and feel stupid afterward. Anyway, somehow this one passed all your tests and you approve of him. And I'm so glad that you do. Let's face the truth, you're going to know the moment he asks way before I do and hopefully, you're going to be there wherever it happens.

I know you're going to accept the title of Maid of Honor when I officially ask you, but don't worry I'll still ask you in an insanely creative way. And we will venture through this crazy planning process together. I can't wait and I hope you can't either! I want to apologize in advance though for any crazy bridezilla things I might do.

But thank you again for being my best friend, my partner in crime, and my number one. Thank you for saving my sanity, or giving up yours to reach my level. Thank you for all the late night food runs, last minute sleepovers and random shenanigans we have done. Thank you for being there to tell what was and wasn't a good idea. Thank you for being the one I want to be by my side.

Love,

Your Best Friend

Summer: a time (usually) free from school work and a time to relax with your friends and family. Maybe you go on a vacation or maybe you work all summer, but the time off really does help. When you're in college you become super close with so many people it's hard to think that you won't see many of them for three months. But, then you get that text saying, "Hey, clear your schedule next weekend, I'm coming up" and you begin to flip out. Here are the emotions you go through as your best friend makes her trip to your house.

Winter break is over, we're all back at our respective colleges, and the first week of classes is underway. This is a little bit how that week tends to go.

The professor starts to go over something more than the syllabus

You get homework assigned on the first day of class

There are multiple group projects on the syllabus

You learn attendance is mandatory and will be taken every class

Professor starts chatting about their personal life and what inspired them to teach this class

Participation is mandatory and you have to play "icebreaker games"

Everybody is going out because its 'syllabus week' but you're laying in bed watching Grey's Anatomy

Looking outside anytime past 8 PM every night of this week

Nobody actually has any idea what's happening this entire week

Syllabus week is over and you realize you actually have to try now...or not

Now it's time to get back into the REAL swing of things. Second semester is really here and we all have to deal with it.

Whether you specialized in ringing people up or preparing the food, if you worked at Panera Bread it holds a special place in your heart. Here are some signs that you worked at Panera in high school.

1. You own so many pairs of khaki pants you don’t even know what to do with them

Definitely the worst part about working at Panera was the uniform and having someone cute come in. Please don’t look at me in my hat.

7 Ways to Make Your Language More Transgender and Nonbinary Inclusive

With more people becoming aware of transgender and non-binary people, there have been a lot of questions circulating online and elsewhere about how to be more inclusive. Language is very important in making a space safer for trans and non-binary individuals. With language, there is an established and built-in measure of whether a place could be safe or unsafe. If the wrong language is used, the place is unsafe and shows a lack of education on trans and non-binary issues. With the right language and education, there can be more safe spaces for trans and non-binary people to exist without feeling the need to hide their identities or feel threatened for merely existing.
