Thank you for everything.

An Open Letter To My First College Best Friend
Marisa Vanzant

Dear College Best Friend,

Thank you for coming up to me that day before our freshmen year had officially begun in the Education meeting. I did not know anyone there that day, and I sat alone in the back because I'd shown up late due to an honors meeting that overlapped with it. You heard in my introduction that I was a Secondary English Education major, and so were you. You came up to me and asked if we could sit together in the classes we would probably have together. To this day, we are closer than ever. As I'm writing this, just last night we had a Mario Party night.

You have had to pick me up more than once due to car trouble, and you have even picked up my fiance's van from Lewisburg when he had appendicitis. When I was in the hospital with him, you made sure I'd eaten, and you got us clean clothes from our apartment. You are literally always there for me when I need you, and you don't know how much that means to me. You even brought your cat over to save me from the mouse in my apartment. That's true friendship.

We ask each other for advice and guidance. I know you're always there to listen to me, and I hope that you know I am always here for you if and when you need anything at all. Our late night game nights and double dates are some of my favorite nights even though we stay up til midnight and I have to get up at 6 the next day. It's worth it.

Thank you for being there for me, helping me, listening to me, and picking me up with my wacky car problems. Thank you for waiting with me during John's surgery. Thank you for everything!

Sincerely,

Your College Best Friend

P.S. We do not take enough pictures together with just the two of us.

The Unwritten Rules Of "Talking"

What is "talking?" How does one "talk?"

Now that it seems “talking” is the new way to date, and will stay that way until another idiotic term is used to describe the people who can’t settle down and just date someone, I feel as if it’s time to go over the unwritten rules of “talking.”

Rule 1. Having feeling without feeling.

And before you ask, yes I'm fine. No, I'm not mad. This is just my face, so take it or leave it! To those of you who have been #blessed with an RBF, you'll probably relate to these more than you'd like to:

What's up Asshat,

I've composed a list of things that I wish upon you, and they're harsh and cruel. These things are things that I wouldn't wish upon my worst of enemies, not even that Starbuck's barista who always screws up my order, not even him. You fall into a whole other category of hate. You surpass Starbucks barista. Congratulations, I'm actually a pretty nice person, making you worthy of every single bit of torture I wish upon you. What are these things I wish upon you you might ask?
