Of course my summer has been great, visiting my other friends and family, but it just isn’t the same without you. Every time I am in my room I expect someone else to be with me. When I leave the house it was usually with you. Can you tell I miss you yet?

My first week at home, I kept saying your name. When I woke up every morning, I expected you to be there and when I was leaving I expected to say bye. But you aren’t there, you aren’t here. I miss waking up to your snores, I miss waking you up by jumping on your bed. Summer is hard not having you here with me. No matter how many times I annoy you over and over, I kept doing it. The thing is you never got mad at me, instead you reacted just like me. That’s the thing, we were so alike in a variety of different ways. Honestly, I developed a sister and I want her to come home.

Remember our nights lying in bed just talking, or when I would sing to you? I would make up the weirdest songs to make you laugh, but more importantly to make memories. That’s what I miss. I enjoyed going to bed every night with a roommate and a simple smile on my face. Now I go to bed after work, all tired and stressed, to wake up and do it all over again. Where are you when I need you?!

When something huge happens I want to tell you. When I meet a boy, I want to tell you how cute he or how much I hated him, or even those nights I just need to vent to you. I am missing your smart remarks, and your comments to make me smile when I am down. I miss your silly jokes, and the way you would get excited to see me every time.

I have trouble with some of my own responsibilities, you were always reminding me not to forget something, or do something. Well, I have been forgetting…A lot. This is why college sucks, because you develop a relationship for a year and then having to go three months without that person just stinks!

Technology can help with the communication, but it just isn’t the same. I want to hear your goofy laugh again, maybe summer is good, because I can come visit you. Roomie, we have so much to talk about, so much that has already happened and I want to tell you it all. There is so much you are missing out on, so much I am missing out on, but that’s okay. It gives us another thing to learn about each other, it gives us something to talk about. But more importantly it gives me a reason to call you my best friend, and my roommate. Knowing we may be hundreds of miles away just shows we are still truly there for each other. I miss you, and I can’t wait to see you again!

Thank gosh, this summer is only temporarily, because my life wouldn’t be full without you forever.
