Dear friends,

I know we haven't known each other for very long, but I want you to know how thankful I am to have you in my life! We have gone through so many things together just within this year, so this is for you.

From the very first moment we met, how was I supposed to know how close we would end up becoming? Today, I can't even imagine my life without you. You will forever be a part of my life now. Sorry, but you're stuck with me. You never know who you will meet on a day-to-day basis. Some people pass through your life, and some stay forever. I know that in our case it will be forever! Every day that we spend together is another memory made. All of those beach trips, sidewalk rants, late night talks, and even all of those various crafting sessions we had; every day was a new moment in our friendship.

At the beginning of this year I was alone; I didn't know anyone going to the same college I was going to. It was terrifying. I ate every meal by myself, didn't talk to many people, and sat in my room watching Netflix half the time. But as soon as I met you and we started talking and hanging out more, I realized how much we have in common. Now, I never have to eat a meal alone; I never have to worry about a boring day ever again, because with you in my life, it will always be an adventure!

We can be weird together, we can sit together in a room and do completely separate things and not speak to each other, we can share each other's clothes, and so much more. Thank you for that! Thank you for being with me even though I may be weird and foolish at times.

From helping me pick outfits out for a night out, to helping pick a movie for a night in, you are always someone I can count on! You helped me reach out of my shell. You supported every decision I made (even if it was a bad one). You were there for me when I was struggling and upset. You drove me to the store when all I needed was to refill my caffeine addiction. You debated with me even when I refused to be wrong. You forced me to go to class when all I wanted to do was sleep. You kept my secrets, and I will forever keep yours.You loved me unconditionally for who I am, and I will never be able to repay you for that.

10 years from now I hope that we will still have a friendship like this. I love you and I can't wait to spend many more years to come together! With you by my side, supporting my bad karaoke jam sessions (Jinx! Jinx again!) and painfully awful dance moves, I know that I will always be OK (because it's OK). Thank you for being you, and for being my apple butt dance partner.

With love,

Your Friend
