It always hurts when best friend relationships start to change

Open Letter To Best Friend That I Used Yo Know
TKoren Word Press

Dear Best Friend that I used to know,

Where did you go? We were always at each other's sides that nothing could pull as apart except when I went to college and you found a boyfriend. The day that I left for college, you came over to my house and made a promise to me that you would always be there. Nothing was supposed to change. Two years later, you still haven't come to visit me.

I could tell you I miss you again but I know it does not hold any weight with you. I'm just a voice on the other end of the phone or a text that you just read and respond three hours later. Maybe it just makes it easier that you can't physically see me. It's easier to ignore than to rather deal with our struggling relationship. I can't help to stop and think, "What happened to us to get to that point?"

I do have days where I think and miss the memories of us, driving around in your car and singing G-Eazy songs. We had adventures of going to the carnival and buying matching clothes. We had each other that summer and I can't thank you enough for being there during that time where we both were transitioning into our lives. Sadly, it gave me hope that you were gonna stick around a little longer.

I understand that we are living two different lives but at one point, I need you in my life. The calling went down between us and the texting became more delayed to the point where it was easy to just forget about you. I had to pick myself up and realize that you were never coming back. The friendship that we once had died when I left for college. I'm still struggling to realize that you are officially gone. When we planned to go to that concert together and you just stopped replying back to me. It was an easier way for you to tell me no, I'm not coming anymore. It was probably the biggest disappointment.

I do pray in those few moments that you find yourself again. That you'll get the strength to finally leave your boyfriend, who is a negative person in your life. I know that you are unhappy with your life. So why let these good years go to waste by being unhappy? Partying can only last you for so long until you realize how alone that you truly are.

When you do realize it, I might not be that same girl from that summer ago. I wish you the best of luck with whatever happens to you but I do need to distance myself from you because our relationship is starting to become toxic for me. At the end of the day, I know you are gone.

5 Things To Do That Are Better Than Writing A Paper

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?

I can barely remember back when I was the only child. Most would say it’s because it is extremely difficult to remember things as a toddler but I would say it's because I was bored until my sister came along. My mother always says how important the "sister bond" is and with every year that passes I realize how right she is. Instead of writing a novel about all of the wonderful things there are about having a sister I decided to list a few of them instead.

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.

If you’re anything like me, you love a good cup of coffee. My coffee always comes from Starbucks; I refuse to drink it from anywhere else. Over the years, it’s become one of my biggest addictions. So, if you are aware that you’re a Starbucks addict as well, or maybe you need to check to see if you’re an addict, here are seven ways to tell.

College involves a whirlwind of emotions, whether it’s from the stress of an assignment (or twenty), or from fighting with your roommate. It can be overwhelming at times and it’s important to take a step a back and calmly think things over. Maybe gain some perspective. The following aren’t foolproof tips and may not apply to you, but I was able to find success with them (hope you do too!)
