A Letter To My Best Friend

You're My Person

A Letter To My Best Friend
Marissa Baca

Dear Best Friend,

Thanks for being you. I'm so glad we connected years ago and decided that we were the people we wanted to spend all of our time with. I feel like a friendship like ours is rare. We have almost everything in common, and don't ever get in fights. We also don't ever see each other since I moved away for college, but that hasn't hindered our friendship one bit. We text, talk, and Snapchat all the time, so it really is like I have you with me all the time anyway. Plus, doing long distance makes the times we do get to see each other so much sweeter.

I've had many friends and "best" friends throughout my life, but nobody has ever been quite like you. You're hands down the best friend I've ever had, and I'm so thankful for that. You're the person I talk to when I'm upset, or who I go to when I want to rant about my day. I love that you're always there for me no matter what, and that I can always count on you.

I love all the support you've given me over the last few years and I love how you brag about me to people you know. No other friend has showed me the support you have for me, and that's the best feeling ever that you will always support me in whatever I decide to do, (unless that means living in Colorado, because I know you want me to come home haha).

Movie nights, eating junk, painting our nails, and jamming out to country music will always be my favorite activities to do with you. Even when we're both 30 and married, I still want to do all that stuff with you. When you're best friends, that kind of stuff you can never get too old for. And I totally know that you agree with me on that.

Your friendship is the kind that I never want to get rid of. I want you by my side through every stage of my life, and I'm lucky to have had you by my side already for a good portion of it, and I want to be right there for you in your life too. Thanks for being the Meredith Grey to my Christina Yang, the Darcy to my Rachel, the Lorelai to my Rory. You're my person!

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.
