An Open Letter To My Best Friends

“Friendship ... is born at the moment when one man says to another "What! You too? I thought that no one but myself . . .” ― C.S. Lewis

An Open Letter To My Best Friends

“Friendship ... is born at the moment when one man says to another "What! You too? I thought that no one but myself . . .” -C.S. Lewis

You look out for me, you care about me and you support me.

We don’t always share the same views or interests, however, we’re also very much alike in many other ways.

You accept my quirks and even find some to be quite the entertainment.

And that girl I don’t like? Psshh, I already know you can't stand her either!

I can tell you everything and not have to even consider the thought of worrying my secrets will leave your lips.

I don't have to wonder what your intentions are because you're so full of love. You make me want to be a better person.

Our texts and group chats are so very bizarre, but full of screenshots, gossip and odd jokes that would only ever make sense to us.

You stay up all night, talking to me when I’m sad and make fun of the boy who made me that way. You never fail to put a smile on my face, even when I don't want to.

My family is your family and vice versa. I don’t feel weird walking straight into your house; even if it means interrupting family dinner.

The bond we share is so very much appreciated, even if I don’t express that love enough.

Thank you for being the most incredible friends a girl can have.

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?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week.
