Have You Met Your College Best Friend Yet?

College best friends are a thing.

Have You Met Your College Best Friend Yet?

One of my first worries before going to college was, how will I make new friends? Knowing that since I'm a very shy/quiet person when you first meet me, it would be hard for me to communicate comfortably in making new friends. Plus, I was going to a college where I didn't know anyone at all. So I knew it wouldn't be easy as it was in High School.

But, guess what!

The small campus size that I chose, the amazing, nice, polite people that I've met. It was just the opposite of what I thought it would be. AWESOME. My experience got real exciting when I had found my College Best Friend on the very first day of Orientation. It all started by "Do you want to be Roommates?". And that's when the crazy adventure started.

The hardest part was summer vacation of Freshmen year...

We lived in different states and that's when I realized how much I missed being at college with my Best Friend. Three months of summer vacation was a struggle. I just couldn't wait for it to be over and start being back in school and restart the amazing times we've had.

(College made us realize that she is addicted to Chick Fil a, while i'm addicted to Taco Bell)

Here are a list of things I remember from Freshmen Year of College:

Midnight walks to abandoned places

Ghost Hunting

Spring Break Trip

Midnight Taco Bell emergencies

Trip(s) to the beach

Hanging Rock, North Carolina

Driving 4 hours to adopt a puppy and ending up giving it back the next morning

Going to the library to "study", but ending up "trying to study"

etc.

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.
