A Letter To My Best Friend

It's not about who you've known the longest; it's about who came when you needed them and never left your side.

A Letter To My Best Friend
http://weheartit.com/greysbr/collections/3719882-meredith-e-cristina

Dear best friend,

Hey, I would say its been a while but honestly I probably just sent you a bunch of screenshots or had a meltdown over something. Lately when I get bored I look through the thousands of pictures we’ve sent each other, and every time I end up laughing. From screenshots of text messages with boys to pictures of nights that are blurry, I cherish every moment.

And then that got me to thinking of how we became friends. We talk about this all the time because our friendship was so random, and out of no where, and now we cant picture life without each other. Of all things that could lead us to talk, it was in the end a boy, who will remain nameless. You and I knew who each other was but we weren’t friends. I hadn’t known you my whole life, I hadn’t known where you lived, I hadn’t known your family. But in my junior year, and your sophomore year we started talking about the said boy. And for as crappy of a person he was, I'm so glad that I talked to him because it led me to you.

It led me to my person. I truly do not know where I would be without you, without our late phone calls and FaceTimes, and many many screenshots, and are never ending laughter. You have truly carried me through some of the hardest times of my life, and I hope I have done the same for you.

I know it's not easy us being 20 hours away, nine months out of 12, but I think you would agree with me that this has only strengthened our relationship. It has allowed us to see that there really is not a single thing that could come between us and break our bond.

Thank you for always being there for every call (drunk or sober), every text, every laugh, every tear and every hug. Thank you for wanting to plan all these extravagant trips that may not happen. Thank you for knowing the five things my future husband needs to know for my proposal, and so much more. Our memories will forever live in my heart and you will forever be my best friend, but more importantly my person.

I would say see you soon, but I honestly probably just sent you another screen shot.

Love you always

I don't think I say it enough...

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.

1. It's easy to be fooled by shiny things.

Tamatoa created a liar filled with shiny things simply for the purpose of tricking fish to enter and become his food. He too experiences a lesson in how easy it is to be tricked by shiny things when Moana distracts him by covering herself in glowing algae so Maui can grab his hook.

I am going to a rhyme without reason date function and I have looked at so many different rhyming words and I figured there need to be a new list of words. At these functions, there are usually at least two rockers and boxers and an umpteenth amount of dogs and frogs. I have come up with a list of creative and unique ideas for these functions.

If you like what you see, get a shopping cart going with these costumes.
