Through the changes, I'll always be here.

An Apology To My Best Friend For My Absence
Pexel

To my dearest friend,

As the leaves change, so do the seasons.

Friendships are a dime a dozen, but if you are lucky enough, you find your other half in your best friend. You make a connection that is unbreakable, like you have known each other your entire lives. You can talk about that break up that made you hate yourself or that love that made you feel so alive you could not stand it, because you know they will understand every word you say. You don't expect to hear what you want, you expect to hear what you need.

With that being said, I want you to know that I love you. I am so thankful for all you have done for me, and I know I will never be able to fully explain exactly how much that is. I know I am at a point in my life where everything is like a wild roller coaster ride, always on the move and going as fast as possible. Thank you for having patience with me as I find myself and experience all life has to offer me. I am sorry that I am not and have not been the best of friends recently, but I am working on improving that aspect of my life and slowing down my pace just a tad.

I am more than thankful for the friendships that have grown in my absence. I am thankful that you have had someone when I have not been there.

I am sorry for the time we have lost and memories that could have been. I know that no matter what the situation may be I will always have you by my side and vice-versa.

My tangled paths will come unraveled in due time, just keep the faith and have patience. I love you, Partner, to the moon and beyond.

Taylor Swift in orange dress playing a moss-covered piano on stage with bright lights.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

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?
