A Letter to My Ex-Bestie

Dear Ex-best friend,

I cannot believe that we have reached this point. I can’t believe I haven't spoken to you or seen you in this long. We do not talk anymore and you are almost a stranger to me. If we talk at all, it is awkward and I can't bare to sit through the conversation for any longer than a few minutes. I hate that we ended like we did and sometimes I get sad thinking of the bad times. I remember the days when we used to laugh and talk every day. I would tell you everything that happened to me and you would do the same. We would be so silly and goofy together and talked about being the godparents of each other’s children. It's crazy how things change. I miss you and hope that you are doing well. I honestly sometimes even find myself wanting to call you but quickly remember the degree of our relationship.

I thank you for being there for me when I needed you, when I needed a shoulder to cry on, or when I needed a great laugh. You were the support system I needed away from home and you encouraged me to do a lot of things that I never believed I could do. You believed in me when all odds were against me and I thank you so much for that. I’ll never forget the memories we shared and will always remember the good times over the bad. My mom always tells me that sometimes God sends people in your life just for a little bit and they serve a special purpose. I guess you served your purpose in my life and I served mine in yours.

Part of me wishes that none of this ever happened and we could just go back to the way things used to be. However, I know that i simply not possible. Too much has come in between and we could never be the same. I miss coming to your house and binge watching Orange is the New Black all night and eating all of the food in the house. I even miss talking to your family because they were like my second family. Your home was my second home. You were honestly my sister and we had a seemingly unbreakable bond. But clearly everything is not what it seems.

Lastly, I forgive you for everything that you’ve ever done to me and I sincerely apologize for anything that I have done to you. I know that you were a true friend at some point and your intentions were good. I hope that you are living a happy life and succeeding in everything you want to do. I know you have a prosperous future because I've seen your growth throughout the years of our friendship. You are a great person but I have come to terms that you were just not a great person for me. I wish you a long and successful life.

Sincerely,

Your Ex-Bestie

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.
