An Open Letter to the Friends I've Found in College

Thank you for making my life 100% better.

An Open Letter to the Friends I've Found in College
msecnd.net`

I am now in my second year of college. Last year around this time, I was still learning my way around campus and getting used to living 4 hours away from home. Now, a year later, I know my campus and city like the back of my hand and love it with all of my heart, but I would not be at this level of excitement and comfort without some great people who have helped me along the way.


To the friends I have made in college:

First off, thank you. Thank you for making me feel comfortable to be myself. Thank you for supporting all of my decisions. Thank you for all of the conversations that make me laugh until I cry and for being there when I do cry. At this time last year, I was afraid of not making any friends, but now it's a year later and I have the best group of friends that a girl could ask for. Ranging from friends that I have made in my classes, at work, in my dorm, or at an extracurricular activity, you have all made my first two years of college awesome.

Secondly, thank you for helping me get to where I am today. From having endless support when I am on my third major in the past year, (and supporting all three that I have had), to surviving those late night study sessions that we can only survive by randomly serenading each other. You have all filled the past year with endless memories, laughter, and so much love that I will always be grateful for, and for making my transition into college much easier than I thought it would be. Here's to the next couple of years that will be just as great because of you amazing people!

Much Love,

The friend that is forever grateful for you

40 Gift Ideas for the Indecisive

It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. But also a time of stressing over the perfect gift.

It's officially December. There is less than a month of 2024, and I still feel like yesterday was summer. Now comes the merriest time of the year, the Christmas season.

Everyone has been waiting for this time of year since mid-October (which is way too early, in my opinion) or before. It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. A lot of times when I ask friends and family what they want, I get a lot of "I don't know" or "I don't care."

Bucket List To Live In The Now

Find excitement in your life and start exploring wherever you are right here, right now.

mu bucket list

I was sitting at my cubicle, now that I am an adult, looking at the rain pouring down on the windowsill, bumming on life, wishing for the rain to just stop for a full day.

There are moments where we count down the hours until work is over and how many more days till the weekend, and this many weeks until something exciting. Or something like that? Well, I was bumming because my next day off from work is not until Memorial Day weekend, which is not until the end of May. And since this is my first year out of college being a “real person,” I am totally missing the winter, spring and summer breaks. I am sure all of us have felt this way even if just for a hot minute…

Great Value Colleges

If you go to or went to Kent State, then more than likely you have done or will do some of these things.

1. You’ve slipped and fallen on the ice at least once.

The winters at Kent are brutal, and while the heated sidewalks and some great snow boots are always a help, there’s no chance you won’t bust it on the ice at least once in your four plus years at school.
