A Letter To My Better Half

A simple thank you to the guy who's been through it all with me.

A Letter To My Better Half

Dear my favorite guy,

Thank you so much for being able to put up with my ridiculous self, and thanks for being just as goofy as I am. There's honestly no better feeling than just being able to joke around with your best friend.

No matter what we do, from parties, to concerts, to just a casual night of Netflix, everything is an adventure. Who cares if we're sitting in on a Friday night playing NHL 16 and eating some popcorn, there is probably more laughs within a hockey game than many people will experience throughout the whole day. Let's not forget the dynamic duo for pong when we do go out for the night. When it comes down to it, I'm extremely grateful to have you with me for nine months by my side at school because without you I definitely would not be as happy or laughing as much.

Thanks for driving me around all the time and letting me steal all your stuff. Between clothes when I don't feel like going up one floor upstairs to change, forcing you to drive me places since I'm carless (especially beer runs), and of course all your food in your food bin. We all know I'm always hungry and your food is just a lot better than mine is.

Thanks for never giving up on me, especially from 135 miles away from each other. No matter the argument, opinion, distance or any trouble we've been put through, we have walked out a stronger couple. Many duos's will melt under the pressure of long distance or disagreements, but through short visits and our communication skills, we can accomplish things many other couples wouldn't be able to. The highlight of my summer is our weekly/bi-weekly sleepovers and although it may only be a short time spent together, I honestly treasure it more than anything.

Your support and your personal opinions are the reasons I'm able to strive. Even if the advice you give may seem like a negative idea at the moment, I hate to admit it, but you really are right 99 percent of the time. I'll graciously take that other 1 percent, thanks. Sorry you need to be involved with my stupid drama and listen to my gossip, but hey that's just because I'm a girl and an extra special sorry for the times you told me things and I didn't believe you, because now that I think about it, I probably should've. Who know's what I would do for this whole past (almost) year without your honesty. You've driven me and pushed me to do many things that I didn't think I would be good enough for and now I am a happier person because of it.

Lastly, Thank you so so so much for putting up with my emotional ass self. Sorry for crying every single time that one sad insurance commercial comes on, even if you play it five times in a row. Thanks for brushing off my tears if we literally only go home for a weekend. Hey, at least you know I care!

For all you readers, I know this is going through your mind —


I will proudly say that there is no one else I would rather have by my side at any time no matter what. Thanks for all the smiles, laughs, and love. Thanks for being the best thing to ever happen to me.

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September.
