An Open Letter to My Middle School Best Friend

Memories that have faded away

An Open Letter to My Middle School Best Friend

Dear Middle School Best Friend,

It took me awhile to write this, as I have to remember the blurred memories we had together. From the times we played uno on Tuesday and Thursday (which I still play, and now became addicted) to that time we did stuff together on 8th grade field day.

But, that is not the topic of this letter. It is mostly what happens afterwards. We started to drift apart from each other in a way that I wish we never did. I send you message after message on the site we agreed that we would message each other on. Day and months go by and no responses. Years go by and we have grown apart. Messages are left to be responded to months later. Questions are still left unanswered, and I continue to wonder, where did the friendship go?

I honestly do not know where things went wrong as all of my friendships seem to fade away into nothingness. Even to this day, I question if my former roommate and I are still going to be friends. I mean you said we would never lose touch, but we faded away from each others lives. How would history not repeat itself again? I guess that will continue to be a part of my anxiety and nightmares that I wished that I never felt.

I would message you on tumblr (because I found it) but I think we have faded away so much that I think you won't remember me anymore, mostly because I have changed too..

From,

Your Middle School Best Friend Matthew..now Mat…

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September. It becomes harder and harder to focus in classes and while doing assignments as the days get closer. The winter has been lagging, the days are short and dark, and no one is quite themselves due to lack of energy and sunlight. Let's face it: life is ten times better in the summertime.
