A Letter To My Best Friends
By: Maureen Logan

Dear best friends,

Thank you. Thank you so freaking much for being everything that you are, you are my clone but yet you have so many unique differences than me at the same time. Without you life would be so unbelievably boring and bland, even though there’s a whole lot of nights where we are just sitting in the car waiting for plans to magically appear, that rarely do, you still make it that time 100x better than being alone. Thank you for being fake “boyfriends” because we are independent women who don’t need a man (but really we just can’t find boyfriends). Still, a Valentine Day spent with you is one I will always cherish because our movie nights, girls wine nights, and date nights are unbeatable.

Thank you for telling me that I look good when I freak out and decide I don’t want to go out because I have no party clothes and I don’t want to put on makeup. And then, thank you for telling me I look like a homeless person and should really start wearing clothes that I didn’t self- proclaim gender neutral. Thank you for just hanging out, helping me with errands, going to get food, because all the time I am able to spend with you is amazing. We get in fights like sisters and yes I admit sometimes I can be bossy/mean but you still love me, and I love you for that. And thank you for saying the hard facts to me that I don’t want to accept, and being there when I have fallen short.

Thank you for always making me laugh when I need it, or at least letting me laugh at you because of some stupid thing you did one time ages ago and I won’t let you live it down. Thank you for being so awkwardly weird with me and accepting me no matter how weird I get. And trusting me enough to have the most ridiculous videos of you singing and dancing on the kitchen floor because you know it brightens any bad mood of mine. Thank you for dancing around like idiots, being incredibly embarrassing, doing squats down the hallway, and just talking to me constantly throughout every day. Thank you for screaming “hello” with me in the car as if we are actually better than Adele and everybody at the red light wants to hear us sing the high note. Thank you for being sneaky little bad role models and making me go out of my comfort zone and live a little bit on the crazy side, and for tagging along with me when I have crazy last minute ideas.

But most of all, thank you for always being there. You are the only people that I can tell literally anything and everything to and I would be nowhere in life if I couldn’t talk to you every day. Please stay in my life forever, because I couldn’t live without you, you are one of the best things to ever happen to me.

I wouldn’t be me if I didn’t have you, so thank you so very much to my best friends.

I abso(freaking)lutey love you.

I went to a small high school, like 120-people-in-my-graduating-class small. It definitely had some good and some bad, and if you also went to a small high school, I’m sure you’ll relate to the things that I went through.

1. If something happens, everyone knows about it

Who hooked up with whom at the party? Yeah, heard about that an hour after it happened. You failed a test? Sorry, saw on Twitter last period. Facebook fight or, God forbid, real fight? It was on half the class’ Snapchat story half an hour ago. No matter what you do, someone will know about it.

Chandler Bing

I'm assuming that we've all heard of the hit 90's TV series, Friends, right? Who hasn't? Admittedly, I had pretty low expectations when I first started binge watching the show on Netflix, but I quickly became addicted.

Without a doubt, Chandler Bing is the most relatable character, and there isn't an episode where I don't find myself thinking, Yup, Iam definitely the Chandler of my friend group.

Working with the public can be a job, in and of itself. Some people are just plain rude for no reason. But regardless of how your day is going, always having to be in the best of moods, or at least act like it... right?

1. When a customer wants to return a product, hands you the receipt, where is printed "ALL SALES ARE FINAL" in all caps.

2. Just because you might be having a bad day, and you're in a crappy mood, doesn't make it okay for you to yell at me or be rude to me. I'm a person with feelings, just like you.

3. People refusing to be put on hold when a customer is standing right in front of you. Oh, how I wish I could just hang up on you!

Another day, another Elle Woods comment. Can’t us blondes get through the day without someone harping at us over the typical stereotypes about who we are? I never understood why a person was judged based upon the hair color they were born with, or the hair color they choose to have (unless you dye your hair blue like Kylie Jenner, I’m still trying to understand why that’s a trend). Nevertheless, as it should be assumed, not everyone is the same. Not all blondes like bright colors and Lilly Pulitzer, and not all blondes claim to identify with Marilyn Monroe. I think the best suggestion to give to people before they make such radical claims is to stop judging a book by its cover. Or in this case, stop judging a blonde by her hair color.
