To my guy best friend,

I'm still not sure why, but when girls have best friends that are males, we categorize them as "guy best friends," rather than just best friends. But it's true, you do fall into a very different category than any of my girl best friends. Quite honestly, you're a whole different type of friend, and the place you hold in my life is something that I don't think anyone could really understand.

Reconnecting with you my junior year of high school definitely was a blessing in disguise. Over the past two years, you have easily become one of the most important people in my life, aside from my family.

You have brought so much into my life that I don't think I could ever thank you enough for. Thank you for being there for me. Whether it's 7 a.m. or you're about to fall asleep, thank you for always picking up the phone and listening to me ramble. Sometimes it's complete nonsense, and that no matter how hard you try to sound interested, I know you couldn't care less.

Thank you for giving me the tough love I never want, but always need. You put me in my place when I'm out of line. No matter how much it annoys me in the moment, I know it's only because you always have my best interest at heart. Thank you for supporting my decisions. We both know that I make some pretty questionable decisions (ones that I probably shouldn't make) but you always are there for me, even if you don't agree with it.

Along with that, thank you for always having my back and making sure I know it. Whether it's boys, crappy friends, or just personal things, you always do whatever it takes to assure me that it'll be okay. I could never thank you enough for that.

Most importantly, thank you for reminding me what I deserve day in and day out, and for never allowing me to settle for less.

I've had several best friends throughout the years, ones I thought would be by my side for a lifetime. I've also had friends that if I was asked "Could you see them in your life in 20 years?", I'd say no.

You fell into that category, but now I remind you every day that you'll be the Man of Honor in my wedding because who says it has to be a Maid of Honor, it's 2017 right? Finding a forever friend is something that is often taken for granted and labeled far too soon, almost as if any person we bond with is automatically a forever friend. It definitely took me a while to find myself a best friend like you, but the best things come unexpectedly, and this friendship definitely did.

You've impacted me and my life in ways I'll never be able to explain. You always say, "I never asked for you, but now I'm stuck with you," and you are so right -- I'm not going anywhere. I hope that everyone is able to find a friend that's half as great as you because everyone deserves someone like you in their life.

It's officially December. There is less than a month of 2024, and I still feel like yesterday was summer. Now comes the merriest time of the year, the Christmas season.

Everyone has been waiting for this time of year since mid-October (which is way too early, in my opinion) or before. It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. A lot of times when I ask friends and family what they want, I get a lot of "I don't know" or "I don't care."

Bucket List To Live In The Now

Find excitement in your life and start exploring wherever you are right here, right now.

mu bucket list

I was sitting at my cubicle, now that I am an adult, looking at the rain pouring down on the windowsill, bumming on life, wishing for the rain to just stop for a full day.

There are moments where we count down the hours until work is over and how many more days till the weekend, and this many weeks until something exciting. Or something like that? Well, I was bumming because my next day off from work is not until Memorial Day weekend, which is not until the end of May. And since this is my first year out of college being a “real person,” I am totally missing the winter, spring and summer breaks. I am sure all of us have felt this way even if just for a hot minute…

Great Value Colleges

If you go to or went to Kent State, then more than likely you have done or will do some of these things.

1. You’ve slipped and fallen on the ice at least once.

The winters at Kent are brutal, and while the heated sidewalks and some great snow boots are always a help, there’s no chance you won’t bust it on the ice at least once in your four plus years at school.
