An Open Letter To The Person Who Marries My Best Friend
Odyssey

Dear BFF's boo,

First, I am so happy that you two have found each other. It fills my heart to see that someone else sees the joy and wonder that makes my best friend special. I hope that your future is filled with love and that neither of you ever feel lonely. As you can tell, my best friend means a lot to me. So I hope that you cherish and love them as much as I do. But this is about the relationship between you and I. We both already agree that our mutual acquaintance is the best thing since sliced bread.

In an age where dating is basically part of the past, marriage is mostly looked at as a death sentence. I want to take this opportunity to look at this as a positive situation. I am not losing best friend to a marriage, I am extending my love and support to you as well. You are an extension of them once you are married, so you're basically a best friend 2.0, right?

Congratulations, you are in love with seriously the best person to ever grace this earth. You have very good taste. Welcome to the family. I can not wait to create even richer memories filled with love and laughter with you as well.

I am excited to see you two grow and accomplish goals together. The new adventures ahead of you are sure to be wild. I hope you are the calm to the storm as I once was. OUR Best friend is the wild one, so I hope you keep them grounded when needed. With that being said, please, let them soar as well. It may seem crazy in the moment, but that's when I learned the most from them. That's when we made the best memories; I am overjoyed that you now to get to experience their glimmer.

You are now married to a very strong personality. Even when they are being a strong force on the outside, I swear, they have a calm ocean center. On the inside they are soft and compassionate. My advice to you is to look past the wall that they may put up. You will see them cry at sad movies and dreams they once had. Love them and hold them because our BFF is two different people at 2 pm and 2 am. Just a side note, a glass of wine doesn't hurt at either time.

You will see when our best friend loves, they love hard. Just like everything else they do, they will do it with full force. They will stand by you until the end of time and I really hope that you can share that with them as well. Because, you know as well as I do, that's what they deserve.

Sincerely,

Your new best friend.

Dear High School Friend Group,

My sweet angels, where would I be without you guys. We all grew up together because we either met in middle school or high school and watched each other grow up and get "old." We got to go to prom together and then graduate together. Then watched each other as we continued our lives in college, joining sororities and meeting people who will impact our lives forever. It all has happened so fast.

Oh college, we can’t live with you, but we can’t live without you. It’s a love/hate relationship, really. College is an experience that no one can ever prepare you for, and maybe that’s a good thing. You never really expect any of the things that college encompasses until you are there. College is fun, but don’t have too much fun. C’s get degrees, but they don’t get you into graduate school.

Blair Waldorf

The "Gossip Girl" series may be over, but Blair Waldorf's iconic character lives in our hearts forever. Blair was the queen of the Upper East Side, and a character you either loved or hated. She taught us everything we needed to know about life, love and of course, how to score a Chuck Bass. So the next time you feel a bit lost and are in need of guidance, look no further than to the Queen B herself.

As I spend my Sunday avoiding my homework and other adult responsibilities, I realized that I've watched this series over and over about a million times. Sadly, there isn't a Blair quote I don't know, so I came up with a list of a few favorites. You know you love her...xoxo

College is an endless cycle of crappy, sleepless nights, tedious, boring lectures, and hours of never-ending piles of homework.

Summer: a time (usually) free from school work and a time to relax with your friends and family. Maybe you go on a vacation or maybe you work all summer, but the time off really does help. When you're in college you become super close with so many people it's hard to think that you won't see many of them for three months. But, then you get that text saying, "Hey, clear your schedule next weekend, I'm coming up" and you begin to flip out. Here are the emotions you go through as your best friend makes her trip to your house.
