A Letter To My Best Friend

I don't know what I would do without you

A Letter To My Best Friend
Kate Huber

Dear Best Friend,

I know you are starting to feel special now because I made my entire article about you, but just know that you are more than my best friend, you are my sister. I never thought I would have grown such a strong bond with you. When we first met, we seemed like complete opposites of each other. You had a crap ton of clothes, shoes and you always took the longest to get ready. That part of you made me think that we weren’t going to get along at all. Once our parents left us after the first couple of hours of move-in day, we started bonding. You liked all the same things I liked and we had the same personality and views on things. You were seriously my twin and I couldn’t figure out how I got so lucky.

It seems strange to me to have such a strong and close connection with you when we have only been friends for a year and four months now. I couldn’t imagine myself being where I am today without you. We do absolutely everything together and your family considers me to be one of their daughters/granddaughters. I cannot tell you how blessed I am to have had God put you in my life.

I know that you don’t always feel like you pitch in or help out a lot around the apartment, but you do. I am not used to being alone all the time because I always had someone there to keep me company. I get lonely living here because I don’t have very many friends, but knowing that you’re my roommate and that you’re going to be home soon, makes everything better. I love having you as my best friend and roommate because it is like living with my twin sister. You contribute so much more than you think you do. You are literally there for me every single day, especially when I am sad, mad, confused, frustrated, and every other emotion there is. You are there with me to experience this and to help me through it. You are my number one support system. When I feel like giving up on something or quitting, you stop me and remind me how I can accomplish anything and how you will be there with me through this time.

I do not care how much stuff you buy for the apartment or how much money or food you bring home. All I care about is you being there with me through this crazy journey in our life’s and making me smile every day of my life. I am beyond grateful for you and I am proud to call you my best friend/sister.

Love you forever and always bestie,

Kate Huber

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.
