To The Friends I Never Saw Coming This Semester

Hey, you.

By now we know each other pretty well. We hang almost every day and we have gotten to be the best of friends. It is funny how life works that way. The most funny thing of all is that I barely knew you last semester. College is weird in the way that one second you could not know anyone at all and the next second you could be best friends with them. You came into my life when I needed you, whether I knew it or not. College is such a weird time in your life and it is very important to grow as a person during this time and to be making friends that you know will be by your side for the rest of your life.

At the start of this semester I knew I wasn't the same person I was last semester. I grew up and as this semester has gone on I have realized that more and more every day. I never expected us to be the best of friends that we are now. I knew who you were coming into this semester but I never thought I would know you more than just your name. Looking back now on this semester, I have no idea what I would have done if we didn't become the best of friends.

I have learned so much about you that I never thought I would know. We have spent countless nights in the library laughing over stupid stuff until 1 AM rather than doing our homework. I’m thankful for our breakfast, lunch, and dinner dates. I'm thankful for all the smiles and car rides we have gone on. Thank you for understanding me and loving me even though I might be a weirdo. I will be forever thankful for being put in some of the similar classes this semester because if we weren't in the same classes we might not be the best of friends that we are now.

Once this semester ends I know we will stay friends because the memories we have made in the short period of time that we have become friends are irreplaceable. The laughter we have shared will always stay close to my heart especially when I am across the pond next semester. I will never forget all the late night food runs to Trax or Aerie Cafe trying to spend all of Abby's dining dollars.

It saddens me to know that next semester I won't get to see you everyday but I know face time calls will be a weekly occurrence. I'll be able to look back on pictures of this semester and smile because you taught me what it means to have a best friend. Don't worry I won't forget about you when I am living in London next semester.

Once again, thank you.

I love you.

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.
