Hey, it's me, the friend you took in when I was struggling to find some.
Without you, I would've had such a rough year to go through all alone.
Without you, I would've been lost. I would've had no one to go to when I needed advice or help with homework.
Without you, I wouldn't have any memories to share with new friends or even my kids in the future.
I appreciate all you've done for me in such a short amount of time.
Now I am moving on to college. I'm moving a few hours away, but we will not let distance destroy us. We will cherish the inside jokes we have, we will go on late night drives and go to get cookies at 2 a.m. when I come home to visit. We will plan trips for next summer and start to save up now. We will FaceTime and call each other daily.
We will keep our Snapchat streak strong, sending the ugliest of Snapchats to each other. I’ll visit home, and I hope you will come to visit me. I will be here to give you advice about your senior year, helping you the way that you helped me.
I will be here to help you find out what major is right for you at college. I will be here to help you apply for colleges, and give you advice for your entrance letters. I will be here to guide you so you succeed in whatever you want to do with your life.
I will be here if you don’t get into your dream college, we will sit and eat anything and everything until you feel better. I will be here if you do get into your dream college, going to visit as soon as possible to see your new home. I will be here for you though thick and thin, just like you were for me.
I want you to know that I will never have another friend like you, ever again. You are such a special person, to me and to the world. No one can compare to you.
You are kind to everyone, always trying to put your best foot forward. I want you to know how much you mean to me, whenever I need you, you are there. You are willing to listen to me complain about the same things over and over again. You are willing to be my best friend and not judge me, which is something I never had before. I wish I could take you to college with me, like a very long vacation, but I know I can’t.
I hope you work your hardest while I'm gone, I hope you have the best of days, even when they are gray. I hope you don't forget about me, because there's no way I’ll forget about you. Although I may be hours away, I am only one phone call away, don't be a stranger either, my dorm is always open.
Love, your best friend.
