To My Best Friend That Just Graduated College
Amber Angstadt
"If you're alone, I'll be your shadow. If you want to cry, I'll be your shoulder. If you want a hug, I'll be your pillow. If you need to be happy, I'll be your smile...but anytime you need a friend, I'll just be me."
- Unknown.

Hey you, my little college graduate!

I can't believe you did it, you graduated college. You get to move onto the next big chapter in your life. I miss you a bunch already, but that's not why I'm writing you this letter. I'm writing you to wish you all the luck in the world and remind you of why I'll always be here for you, no matter how far. Let's reminisce for a moment: remember when we met? At your townhouse when I was introduced to you, and you thought I was mean because I didn't talk at all, but in reality I was just shy. That story still makes me laugh.

Remember all the lunches we had together? All the funny videos we've taken of each other and all our jokes. Oh, and how I love your family and I'm "going to marry your brother." Your "ghetto, crayon box smelling" bug? Your "ghetto fab" bedroom? I don't think I've ever had a friend like you, and I can't thank whoever is up there enough for bringing you into my life.

I miss going to Hummel's and staying up late even though we both had to get up early. I miss going to breakfast just for omelets. I miss sleepovers in your room by pushing the couches together and making a huge bed. Heck, I even miss taking care of your completely intoxicated self.

I like that we have so much in common like watching cartoons, listening to country music, and coloring. There's so much more than that. I'm still in shock that you're not going to be on campus next year. It breaks my heart. I'll always be here for you, no matter what time, what day, what month, or year. I'll always be just a text, phone call, or drive away. I mean, you are going to be my maid of honor, and the godmother to my children. We're supposed to grow old and drink cheap wine while we talk crap about people we used to hate.

We're supposed to go to baseball games and try to talk to the players, but get ignored. And then force you to get out of the car and make the hot one sign my phone case. Plus, I promise not to kill you in any car accidents (only bruise your knees).

I love you and I miss you more than words can describe. I wish you all the best of luck on your next chapter in life at HACC. And hey, maybe one day you'll be cleaning my teeth.

Love, Your Best Friend, the baby still in college.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
