I'm so lucky I found you. In this crazy mess of a first semester, you have been my shelter. You have been my shoulder to cry on, my human punching bag, and my best friend. You've saved me from my own demons and shaped me along with the other aspects of my college experience.

Thanks for listening to your heart instead of your head. You destroyed all negative thoughts of freshman year relationships and found little old me-- lost. And you saved me. You know all the in's and out's of my mind. You know I'd prefer some mac and cheese and chicken tenders over a fancy dinner any day. I either wear sweatpants or a dress, there's no in between. I am more in love with my little sister than anything else in the world. And if I'm laughing at something on the Internet, it's probably a video of a dancing child.

I wouldn't change a thing about us. I love waking up next to you looking like I just got hit by a truck. There's no one else I would want to binge watch "Scrubs" with, or lip-sync "Stranded in The Drive-Thru" with (and yes, I love that we know every word).

I also wouldn't change a thing about you. You might drink more than I prefer. You might not always shower after you go to the gym, and you occasionally forget the plans we've made. But I wouldn't trade that for the world.

And I don't want to say I can see us being together forever, because, even if I believe I'm somewhat of an adult, I'm not. I'm a child. I don't know what I'm doing, and I'm going to make mistakes. I don't know what love is. Heck, I don't even know my own major. But I do know that right now, I'm happy. I'm happier than I've been in a really long time. We've only know each other for a semester, but these past few months, although stressful and different than anything I've experienced, I've loved each moment, good and bad.

So darling, don't let go.

Xoxo,

Your First College Girlfriend
