An Open Letter to My Guy Best Guy Friend

Thank you for everything.

To the boy that hated me the moment you met me, thank you for giving me a chance.

Thank you for sharing your spot light with me even though you hated to. My life was forever changed the day you walked into the room and rolled your eyes at me. At that moment, I would have never thought in a million years that we would be where we are now. Thankfully, you gave our friendship a shot, and for that, you've completely changed my life.

I don't know how I ever did life without you. Thank you for correcting me when I have bad tastes or ideas. Thank you for never letting me go shopping or to eat alone, for always giving me an excuse to leave home, and for never letting me drive because we both know I'm no good.

Thank you for laughing at my jokes even when they aren't funny. Thank you for reading my posts before I post them and giving me your opinion so I don't make myself look dumb, for always being down to do any of my dumb ideas, and for never allowing anyone to treat me like crap. Thank you for everything you do for me, it'll never go unnoticed.

Our memories together will last a lifetime. We have done it all. We have written a comical song and sung it in front of 300+ people, traveled to 5 states, jammed at concerts, went on more adventures than I can count, worshipped Jesus, stayed up until odd hours of the night having deep conversations, prayed, cried, and laughed so much together.

If we added up all the time we spend together, I can guarantee that 3/4 of it is spent laughing. I wouldn't have it any other way.

You are my person. You know everything about me, but you love me anyway. You know all of my hopes and my dreams, and you encourage me to pursue everyone of them. You have seen all of my flaws. You have saw me at my weakest and strongest moments.

You have been there for me when I felt lonely, and you've been there when I was completely surrounded with everyone I love. You have fought so many battles by my side. You tell me what I deserve, and get mad at me when I allow myself to get less than that. You hold me accountable. You never fail to give me life advice, even though you sometimes have to shove it down my throat.

You are always in my crowd, and I couldn't be more thankful. The support you give me is beyond anything I could ever ask for.

You encourage me. You inspire me. You give me hope.

Your self confidence is inspiring. You love others more than you love yourself. You develop friendships with everyone you meet. You find happiness in even the darkest of times. You laugh when you want to cry. You strive to achieve every goal you set for yourself. You are the best friend that anyone could have, and I'm so happy to call you mine.

You have a heart of gold, and I am so happy to have you in my life. When I say you are my best friend, I mean it with everything I have in me. Thank you for beating the stereotype and being a guy that's a girl's absolute bestfriend. Thank you for listening to me always and never failing to voice your opinion.

You are so loved by me. I will forever be on your side and on your team. You mean the world to me, and I hope that I never let that go unseen. I'll forever be one call away. Thank you for the best 3 years of friendship. I don't want to ever go through life without you again. No one could ever take your place.

Thank you for everything. I love you more than you'll ever know.

Love always,

Your biggest supporter and best friend.

Summer: a time (usually) free from school work and a time to relax with your friends and family. Maybe you go on a vacation or maybe you work all summer, but the time off really does help. When you're in college you become super close with so many people it's hard to think that you won't see many of them for three months. But, then you get that text saying, "Hey, clear your schedule next weekend, I'm coming up" and you begin to flip out. Here are the emotions you go through as your best friend makes her trip to your house.

Winter break is over, we're all back at our respective colleges, and the first week of classes is underway. This is a little bit how that week tends to go.

The professor starts to go over something more than the syllabus

You get homework assigned on the first day of class

There are multiple group projects on the syllabus

You learn attendance is mandatory and will be taken every class

Professor starts chatting about their personal life and what inspired them to teach this class

Participation is mandatory and you have to play "icebreaker games"

Everybody is going out because its 'syllabus week' but you're laying in bed watching Grey's Anatomy

Looking outside anytime past 8 PM every night of this week

Nobody actually has any idea what's happening this entire week

Syllabus week is over and you realize you actually have to try now...or not

Now it's time to get back into the REAL swing of things. Second semester is really here and we all have to deal with it.

Whether you specialized in ringing people up or preparing the food, if you worked at Panera Bread it holds a special place in your heart. Here are some signs that you worked at Panera in high school.

1. You own so many pairs of khaki pants you don’t even know what to do with them

Definitely the worst part about working at Panera was the uniform and having someone cute come in. Please don’t look at me in my hat.

7 Ways to Make Your Language More Transgender and Nonbinary Inclusive

With more people becoming aware of transgender and non-binary people, there have been a lot of questions circulating online and elsewhere about how to be more inclusive. Language is very important in making a space safer for trans and non-binary individuals. With language, there is an established and built-in measure of whether a place could be safe or unsafe. If the wrong language is used, the place is unsafe and shows a lack of education on trans and non-binary issues. With the right language and education, there can be more safe spaces for trans and non-binary people to exist without feeling the need to hide their identities or feel threatened for merely existing.
