A Letter To My Former Teammates

I can't begin to imagine life without y'all.

A Letter To My Former Teammates
McKenzie Brouk

Seven years went by in the blink of an eye. Seven years spent with each and everyone of you who has been apart of this team. I wouldn't have wanted it any other way. I cant even begin to picture what my life would have been like without all of you in it. The feelings of sadness, but also joy comes to mind as I am finishing my final year as a Texas All Stars with all of you. There aren't enough words in the world to thank you for making my time on Synchro, but I'm going to try and put through words on how grateful I am.

Thank you for always being there for me through the good times and the bad. Your constant positive attitudes and pushing me to be my absolute best has kept me going all these years. if I was having a bad day at school I could always come to practice and my entire mood would be turned around because I was surrounding by the people I love who never fail to make me laugh. Know that I will always be here for you even when I'm all the way in Michigan. I will just be one phone call or text away for whatever you might need.

Thank you for being my literal family. I'll never forget the amazing memories we have all made together. We have been to so many cool places like Disney World, California, Wisconsin, Chicago, St. Louis, Mall of America, and so many more. This team has been one of the best things that has ever happened to me, and I will be thankful for the rest of my life.

Next year is going to be so different not skating alongside all of you, but I'm so excited to see how y'all do next season. I will be cheering so loud for you whether it is via video or in the stands (which still seems crazy to me). My heart breaks that I wont have another practice or competition with you, but all great things must come to an end. I just think of how lucky I truly am to have something that is so special that makes it incredibly hard to say goodbye to.

To all my younger sisters, remember to keep skating, work hard, and push through the bad days. I cant wait to see where life takes each and everyone of you. So even though my time as a Texas All Star is coming to an end the bond we have created with each other will last forever.

I love you girls so much and thank you for an amazing, and unforgettable seven years.

Dear High School Friend Group,

My sweet angels, where would I be without you guys. We all grew up together because we either met in middle school or high school and watched each other grow up and get "old." We got to go to prom together and then graduate together. Then watched each other as we continued our lives in college, joining sororities and meeting people who will impact our lives forever. It all has happened so fast.

Oh college, we can’t live with you, but we can’t live without you. It’s a love/hate relationship, really. College is an experience that no one can ever prepare you for, and maybe that’s a good thing. You never really expect any of the things that college encompasses until you are there. College is fun, but don’t have too much fun. C’s get degrees, but they don’t get you into graduate school.

Blair Waldorf

The "Gossip Girl" series may be over, but Blair Waldorf's iconic character lives in our hearts forever. Blair was the queen of the Upper East Side, and a character you either loved or hated. She taught us everything we needed to know about life, love and of course, how to score a Chuck Bass. So the next time you feel a bit lost and are in need of guidance, look no further than to the Queen B herself.

As I spend my Sunday avoiding my homework and other adult responsibilities, I realized that I've watched this series over and over about a million times. Sadly, there isn't a Blair quote I don't know, so I came up with a list of a few favorites. You know you love her...xoxo

College is an endless cycle of crappy, sleepless nights, tedious, boring lectures, and hours of never-ending piles of homework.

Summer: a time (usually) free from school work and a time to relax with your friends and family. Maybe you go on a vacation or maybe you work all summer, but the time off really does help. When you're in college you become super close with so many people it's hard to think that you won't see many of them for three months. But, then you get that text saying, "Hey, clear your schedule next weekend, I'm coming up" and you begin to flip out. Here are the emotions you go through as your best friend makes her trip to your house.
