A Letter To My High School Best Friend
Yibada.com

First off, I'm sorry. I'm sorry for whatever broke us apart whether it be a stupid fight or one of us moving away for college. I wish it hadn't happened and we could have stayed in contact instead, but we were in high school and drama doesn't stop.

You were a wonderful best friend and you were always there for me. I appreciated everything you ever did. So again, I'm sorry that whatever happened happened, I wish I could go back and fix it. I hope college is treating you well and that you have found friends that will always support you. I still wonder about your family and I hope that they are doing well. I know that life isn't easy and I just wish I could tell you I will always be here if you need an old friend. I pick up my phone often and think about sending you a text, but I don't think you'd respond.

I miss you, friend. I wish I could still talk to you and see you every day. You were a beautiful person inside and out. You look happy in your pictures, I hope that all your friends are there for you, more than I was. I hope they stick up for you and tell you that you are amazing. I hope you have met people that make you feel alive. It's weird not having you in my life anymore, I thought you would be there forever. I expected you to be standing in my wedding, now I'm scared you won't even be there.

I hope the boy you are with is perfect. I hope he is the one and that you have never been happier than you are right now. You deserve the best, you deserve all the love in the world and I hope someone gives it to you. I still look at your Instagram pictures and Tweets and I always hope that your sad moments pass.

I remember our friendship fondly, and I hope you do too. I can remember late night runs to get ice cream or calling you in the middle of the night because I needed a friend. I still miss having sleepovers in your living room and watching TV all night long.

We aren't best friends anymore and I'm afraid you hate me, or think I hate you. I don't. Quite simply, I miss you dearly, I miss your hugs and your advice and you always sticking up for me. I miss your beautiful laugh and how funny you thought stupid jokes were. You taught me so much about how to be carefree.

I'm sorry we grew up too fast and in seperate directions. You are still important to me and I wish I could still say you were my best friend, because I still tell people how wonderful you are and were to me. I wish I could tell you about my life, and my boyfriend and my school. I think you'd be happy for me, I think you'd be proud of how much I've grown.

I wish the world hadn't torn us apart but I hope to see you again soon when we are adults and we can hug and talk about the past. I hope you read this, and I hope you know how much I miss you. I still love you. We kept saying best friends forever, and I guess we just didn't realize how short forever would be for us.

Thank you, thank you for always being there for me when I needed you. Thank you for letting me into your family and bringing me into your life. I can't express my gratitude enough. You got me through a lot and I hope I did the same for you.

I hope you're happy and healthy and strong. You were always so strong, love. I hope you have lots of dogs in your life and that everything is perfect. You deserve nothing but the best.

I will always love you to the moon and back. I miss you old friend, I hope to find myself as a part of your story again soon.

40 Gift Ideas for the Indecisive

It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. But also a time of stressing over the perfect gift.

It's officially December. There is less than a month of 2024, and I still feel like yesterday was summer. Now comes the merriest time of the year, the Christmas season.

Everyone has been waiting for this time of year since mid-October (which is way too early, in my opinion) or before. It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. A lot of times when I ask friends and family what they want, I get a lot of "I don't know" or "I don't care."

Bucket List To Live In The Now

Find excitement in your life and start exploring wherever you are right here, right now.

mu bucket list

I was sitting at my cubicle, now that I am an adult, looking at the rain pouring down on the windowsill, bumming on life, wishing for the rain to just stop for a full day.

There are moments where we count down the hours until work is over and how many more days till the weekend, and this many weeks until something exciting. Or something like that? Well, I was bumming because my next day off from work is not until Memorial Day weekend, which is not until the end of May. And since this is my first year out of college being a “real person,” I am totally missing the winter, spring and summer breaks. I am sure all of us have felt this way even if just for a hot minute…

You know you're a true Kent Stater when...

Kent State University
Great Value Colleges

If you go to or went to Kent State, then more than likely you have done or will do some of these things.

1. You’ve slipped and fallen on the ice at least once.

The winters at Kent are brutal, and while the heated sidewalks and some great snow boots are always a help, there’s no chance you won’t bust it on the ice at least once in your four plus years at school.
