A Letter to my Best Friend

Thanks for being the Dwight to my Michael.

A Letter to my Best Friend
Lani Vanlandingham

Dear best friend,

I haven’t known you my whole life. I didn’t even meet you until a few years ago, but that’s okay. Sometimes you annoy me like no other. Sometimes I can’t stand you. But still, every day, I look over to see you right beside me. You're the peanut butter to my jelly, the sunshine to my rainy day, the chocolate to my Snickers, and the Dwight to my Micheal. I simply couldn’t, and wouldn’t, be here without you.

We have had so many great memories together, such as staying up for 2 days straight, watching nothing but Harry Potter, and not sleeping until we watched every single one of them. Often times, we call each other and talk about nothing else rather than how cute that one boy looks. We never pretend around each other. I can feel completely like myself when I'm with you. I can call you at 2 in the morning and just cry through the phone, and you would still be on the line.

You have helped me through so much. No matter what it is, you are ALWAYS there. And I love that about you. You never make me feel stupid about my mistakes or get angry when I'm a little witch to you.

But I want you to feel just as safe with me. I want to be the first one you go to when you have problems. I always want to be the shoulder you have to cry on. I don't want you to feel like I'm only there when something is wrong with me.

You make me laugh so hard I'm crying. You make me question whether the sun is not really the moon, and if the color yellow is really green. You are just simply you. So thank you.

There are tons of unisex names that are popular: Taylor, Alex, Bailey, etc. There are also numerous names that are used for both sexes, but they’re not seen as “unisex” yet. People are slowly becoming accustomed to the dual use of these names, but for the most part, in their minds they associate certain names with certain sexes. And that leaves those of us with these names in many awkward situations.

16 Secrets Anthropology Majors Never Admit To

You know that all of these things apply to you. You'll just never tell.

I'm an anthropology major, and I love every minute of it. I couldn't tell you why, but I guess there's just something about studying different lifestyles that absolutely fascinates me. But anthropology majors definitely have our weird sides, especially when you go to a school that is filled with mostly Business and Bio majors. But us weirdos definitely have a lot in common, specifically these 16 things.

pale girl

Everyone has insecurities, that's just a fact. You didn't ask to be born this way. You didn't ask to inherit the one trait no one else in your family has. And you definitely didn't ask to be this ghostly white. But as soon as you've learned to live with it for a while (less wrinkles later on in life, right? right???) someone has to ruin it for you. They have to flaunt they're perfectly tanned body from Spring Break and hold their sun-kissed skin against yours. But I've had enough... here are the things that perpetually pale individuals are tired of hearing.

Being a music major is not all kicks and giggles. In fact, there are days when I question my sanity and doubt myself as a musician. I know I am not the only one going through the struggle, and so here are 13 GIFs that I know my fellow music majors can relate to...
