A Letter To My Best Friend
Dakota Shell

What is life without a best friend? Someone who is there to support you through all your phases and love you with every bad decision. Someone who laughs at all your terrible jokes. Someone who takes your side in every situation, no matter how wrong you actually are.

I know I would literally be nowhere in life if it was not for my best friend. You mean a great deal to me so this is my thank you letter to you for simply being you; my best friend.

It has been several years of friendship that I am beyond thankful for, despite the ups and downs. Sure, we fight, but that is what best friends do. That is a part of being so close. We are not afraid to tell each other what we think. We are not afraid to be stubborn with one another, because no matter what, we will still remain best friends.

Thank you for all the little things that have made our friendship strong. Thank you for singing all the Disney songs with me, especially Hannah Montana. Thank you for making random YouTube videos with me, even when we just looked stupid. Thank you for pulling several all-nighters with me on several occasions. Thank you for the many, MANY laughs about stupid things that no one else will ever understand.

Thank you for all the serious things that have made us sisters at heart. Thank you for letting me cry on your shoulder when my ex broke up with me. Thank you for not letting me go even when I've done terrible things to our friendship. Thank you for understanding that sometimes boyfriends take us away. Thank you for always making sure we made plans despite having busy schedules. Thank you for loving God and knowing that He will always come first.

Now for the cliches. Thank you for being the Blaire to my Serena. Thank you for being the Patrick to my SpongeBob. Thank you for being the Christina to my Meredith. And thank you for being the Lilly to my Miley.

It has been several years now and we really could not be any stronger in our friendship. We are getting older and with that will come distance, but I will never forget about all the wonderful times we have had. As we get married and start our families, my children will get to see first-hand how wonderful a friendship can be. They will get to experience a wonderful Aunt that blood did not give, but God did. We may end up living several miles apart, but our hearts will keep us closer than ever. When life gets busy, remember that I am always here, whether it is a car ride or air plane ride away.

My best friend, thank you for being the amazingly talented and beautiful you.

In honor of Mother’s Day, I have been thinking of all the things my mom does for my family and me. Although I couldn’t write nearly all of them, here are a few things that moms do for us.

They find that shirt that’s right in front of you, but just you can’t seem to find.

Thank You on wooden blocks

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

Being sick in college is really tough and definitely not a fun experience. Here are the 15 stages that everyone ends up going through when they are sick at college.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!
