Dear Best Friend,

I know we haven’t really seen each other very much since I have been off at college. To be honest though, you have had a lot going on yourself. Don’t think I don’t care about you just because we aren’t talking as much as we used to. I still love you dearly and I think about you all the time. I know we don’t even text that much either but really, I don’t text that much anyways.

Classes are hectic and when I’m not gaining knowledge or eating, I’m asleep. I know you miss me and I miss you too. So, when you get to missing me, just think about what we have been through together and know that I’m just trying to figure out where I fit in at school and in the world. I am overjoyed when I see your posts about your day or when I see your weird snapchats. I am also glad that you are finding your niche at your university and you are making new friends that aren’t fake.

However, we have been there for each other for the past seven years, in the good and the bad. For the good, I like to think of our inside jokes. You losing your eyepatch was quite hilarious! Also, I like to look back on the times we have spent together where we just do dumb things. We could honestly just sit together for hours and talk about nothing in particular. The bad however wasn’t exactly fun. You were there when I needed a shoulder to cry on and you were there through all of my crushes. I was there when you needed someone to cry into and when you had your breakups. Even though I can be a bit violent and protective, you stayed with me. We were there for each other when we were needed the most and even when we weren’t really needed but just wanted to just be in each other’s presence. What I love the most about our friendship is that we can be away from each other for months at a time and when we get together again much later, it’s as if we were never parted. We pick up right where we left off and we are right back in the other’s life.

The last thing that I want to tell you is that I love you and that I don’t want to ever lose you. Stay strong and remember to live your life even if I can’t be there all of the time. I love you!

Your Bestfriend

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.
