A Letter To My Best Friend

I forget to tell you sometimes

A Letter To My Best Friend
Estrella de Calle

So you have been there for me through just about everything. We have been best friends for so long that we both don’t even remember the first time we met and the moment that we actually became best friends. I remember you inviting me to your birthday parties and we would hang out with all of your friends but later have our own birthday celebration for just you and me. That tradition still continues today and I love that. We only get the most heartfelt gifts for each other and know that the other will love them because we tell each other everything. We might not text all the time but when we end up calling each other the conversation only ends because one of us has to go because we have been on the phone for an hour. We have been friends out of state longer than we have in state and but we make it work.

You are the first person, I tell when there is a boy in my life when sometimes amazing happens, or when I have had the worst day of my life. I know I can count on you to be there for me no matter what. We may have our little fights. We might even have a big fight and not speak for a few days but I know that we will always work it out because we know each other better than anyone else. I wish I could see you more and we were there for each other’s proms. I know that when I do get to see you we act like we are five again and nothing has changed between us even when so many things about each of us have. You are so important to me and sometimes I forget to tell you that. I hope that was we continue to grow into the people we want and are supposed to be that we never grow out of our friendship.

Sleepovers and Disney marathons will never stop being tradition and recommended books will never go unread. You’ve met all the friends I’ve made over the years and I have yours and at times we get jealous but then we remember that no one has the history we have. No one can replace us in the other’s life. We have both taught each other so many things and have traveled to see different places together. I don’t know how we have so many private jokes. The fact that we remember all of them is rather impressive. You have helped me through so much and I just want to thank you for that. You know my family so well because you are part of it. You even have your own room at my house. Basically, all I have left to say is I love you best friend.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week.

Others have slaved away many nights under the fluorescent lights, and are slightly annoyed to find their study space being invaded by amateurs. While these newbies wander aimlessly around the first floor, hopelessly trying to find a table, the OGs of the library are already on the third floor long tables deep into their studies. Here is a few signs that you may live in the library, whether you'd like to admit it or not.
