Thank you for always being there for me through everything.

An Open Letter To My Maid Of Honor
Marisa Vanzant

Dear Maid of Honor:

Thank you. Honestly I could probably end the letter right there, but that would be kind of mean, and I have so much more I can say. We've known each other for over two years, but it seems like a lifetime has gone by in those two years. We became best friends. We lived together. We went on "friend dates" because we were both lonely. You played a part in me meeting my fiance. You have changed my life in countless ways, and I can never thank you enough. You're always there for me when I need you, whether it be to ask if I'm being crazy about something, to ask you to take a shift or switch with me for work, to take engagement photos, or to help make my save the dates. I know I can count on you for anything.

We met during our first semester as freshmen in college. Thankfully, we had two classes together. We were in the same lab group in Q200, which brought us even closer together. We bonded over stupid boys, unfair professors, and typical college freshmen problems. We cried to each other when life got hard, or when a family member passed away. I always know I can trust in you, and I hope you know the same for me.

Moving onto the move in: We lived together for three months. I will always look back on last summer as my transition into adulthood, and the cementing of our forever friendship. There's nothing quite like spending an entire summer with your best friend, going on midnight cruises or out of town shopping trips all the time. Yes, we were broke, but yes, we had a great time going there.

Thank you for being my Maid of Honor. I know you'll be there to help me send invites, keep track of guest lists, make decorations, do my makeup, help me pee in my wedding dress, and most importantly, keep me sane. I can't wait to hear your speech, and it will be an honor to have you standing next to me on my big day.

Thank you best friend.

Sincerely,

Me

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.

I've lived a whole 21 years with an RBF (Resting Bitch Face), so naturally, I go through most of these struggles on a daily basis.

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?
