A Letter To My College Best Friends

Thank you for being there through the tears, the stress, when I am in a terrible mood, the laughs, when I need to rejoice in my successes, and need comfort in my failures.

A Letter To My College Best Friends
Madison Pisarchick

As I came into college, I was expecting to make some friends but never realized I would have been grateful enough to meet you. Out of the the thousands of colleges that we could have chose from, we chose the same one (maybe that’s why we are such good friends, we have amazing taste in universities). At the beginning of the year when we first met, I never realized how close we would possibly get. We are hours away from each other and had never talked prior to meeting at college. Thankfully, we met because you are my rock, my go to, and most of all… You are my best friend.

First, I just want to say thank you. Thank you for being there through the tears, the stress, when I am in a terrible mood, the laughs, when I need to rejoice in my successes, and need comfort in my failures, you are ALWAYS there! I have barged into your room yelling about my problems or laughing about my dumb mistake I had done earlier that day, and you didn’t even question why I never knocked. You are honest with me. When I have made a mistake or am not pushing myself to my fullest potential, you do! You keep me in line just as I do with you.

Thank you for being the most fun person I know. The memories, ahhh the memories. We always laugh endlessly about the dumbest things possible. You are always up to go on every adventure possible. From going to the city out on a whim doing whatever to deciding to rearrange the room at three in the morning, we have done it all! It is great knowing that you are always up to do whatever. We are both so free spirited and fun, the times we have together never fail to be amazing.

My biggest thank you is for never getting tired of me. Spending day in and day out with someone you think you would get annoyed, but we never do (well at least you never make it known I do). If we make each other upset or mad we talk about it and are able to fix the situation because we know our friendship is more than a stupid fight. We might watch Netflix and do school work for hours on end, but somehow we still find a way to make it enjoyable (as enjoyable as it can be, sometimes school work can really suck).

Overall, thank you for everything. Don’t get me wrong, my best friends from home are absolutely incredible! There is just a certain bond between two people who started out at a completely new place together and had to make friends from the get go. Thankfully, you were the one of the best ones I met. You are absolutely everything I look for in a best friend. I know for a fact you will be my lifelong friend that will be in my wedding, a godmother to my children, and my neighbor in the nursing home. Thank you most of all for being you, my best friend.

11 College Misconceptions Every Incoming Freshman Needs To Know

Think of everything that you've heard about college... and completely forget it.

College is a crazy, beautiful, amazing whirlwind. It is highly popularized in television and movies, but not necessarily in the most accurate way. Yes, there's frats, dingy dorms, raging house parties—but there's also a lot that people fail to mention.

1. If you thought that you knew how to study, you're wrong.

All of your classes aren't taught every day, so professors aren't on your case constantly about reading and memorizing material. Once you get back that "questionable" first exam grade, you'll kick it into high gear and figure out what works for you

Girl With Bleached Hair
Tumblr

I've been a bleach blonde for over a year now, and let me tell you, it is a lifestyle. More hair appointments, longer showers, and special shampoo. But it is totally worth it!

1. Mentally preparing yourself to convince your hair dresser that white is the way to go.

2. Or the anxiety of what could go wrong by bleaching your hair at home.

3. You could either become a ginger

4. Or a pixie

5. The face you make in the mirror when you take off your towel to unveil the perfect white strands.

6. Taking a million selfies the day you bleached it, because you know your roots will be back in literally 2 days.

7. Having to get bangs or a big chop because your hair is so damaged.

8. Having orange highlights in between touch-ups.

9. Going out for a drink afterwards to debut your updated look.

Despite the struggles, you love your platinum blonde hair! You make sure Instagram knows it, too. You don't need a filter, because the color is flawless by itself!

Finals: just thinking about them gives you anxiety. Only two weeks separate you from summer, but they're the longest of the semester. There's a familiarity to this season, now that you have had so many testing cycles under your belt. But that doesn't quell the ever present stress to pass your finals and your classes. Even better, as a package deal during these wonderful weeks, you get to wake up early to study and you get to take exams that can begin anytime from 7 A.M. to 7 P.M. Now that we have established that this week is not fun, here are some super relatable moments that punctuate finals week.

I've been at this college thing for almost three and a half years, and while I thought that high school was truly the lowest point of my existence, I'm beginning to realize that it was a walk in the park. Like, I miss the days when the biggest white lie I told my parents was my made up excuse about being late for fourth period. These days, the white lies are a tad more complex, and as ashamed as I am to admit it, I've definitely told a few of these.
