A Letter To My Better Half

Each time my mind wanders, it always finds its way back to you.

A Letter To My Better Half
Haileigh Hamer

Isn't it kind of amazing how a person who was once a stranger can suddenly, without warning, mean the entire world to you? What I love the most is when you become so close to someone that you can see parts of each other in one another, you begin to say the same things, steal lines from each other, and even have a similar sense of humor to the point where you can exchange an inside joke with a simple glance because you have such a strong connection with them where you can sit comfortable in silence but also talk for hours and never run out of anything to say. That's what I got lucky and found in you.

It's crazy to think that not that long ago we could have walked by each other and not said a word, now I can't imagine not having you every second of everyday. It's been a long road of heartbreaks for me, making me feel as though I was never going to be good enough for anyone, but then you came along. I don't think I will ever be able to thank you enough for making sure everyday that I know how much you care and how beautiful I really am because it means more to me than you know. You came into my life when I least expected it, I knew who you were but I never thought that you would end up meaning this much to me.

I always find myself in the middle of laughing at your jokes or singing in the car how much you really make me happy. I love having your sense of humor keeping me up at 4am and your kisses at 6pm. I want your sweet forehead kisses, I want you to tell me everything you want to do in life, I want everything you are and everything you have to offer as long as it's you because in the end, it's only you. I wish I could explain your eyes and how the sound of your voice gives me butterflies, how your smile makes my heart skip a beat, and how every time I'm with you, I feel so complete.

I strongly believe if a man really wants you, you don't have to chase him, he'll do whatever it takes to have you. Somehow every single day you make sure I wake up knowing how much you care and I go to be knowing the same thing. You let me be my full complete self around you, and I'm so thankful every single day that I get to call you mine and have you in my life. You make me feel like I can do anything and make me feel as though I'm the luckiest girl in the world. There's something about you I'm scared to lose because I know I won't find it in anyone else and I hope I never have to, thanks for the endless amount of coffee, chicken nuggets, attention, and always being you.

In honor of Mother’s Day, I have been thinking of all the things my mom does for my family and me. Although I couldn’t write nearly all of them, here are a few things that moms do for us.

They find that shirt that’s right in front of you, but just you can’t seem to find.

Take the time to thank that one friend in your life you will never let go of.

Thank You on wooden blocks

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

Being sick in college is really tough and definitely not a fun experience. Here are the 15 stages that everyone ends up going through when they are sick at college.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!
