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.

It's officially December. There is less than a month of 2023, 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."

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.

Christmas is literally so close. We can almost taste it. But there is just one thing standing between you and the big day: FINALS. It's not the studying, lack of sleep, last minute cram sessions or crappy food intake that is the worst... but the fact that you cannot focus because, well, CHRISTMAS. How do professors expect you to focus when Christmas is soooo soon. For all my fellow Christmas lovers out there, I feel your pain.

One of the most dreaded places on campus is the library. Nothing awesome ever happens here. Usually, the only reason you're here is because you've procrastinated so long that the library is the only place you'll actually get stuff done. It gives you this feeling of sadness and impending doom. You have no idea how this is going to go or how long you'll be here, but you do know it is about to be the most excruciating experiences yet. But it has to get done, so you drag yourself to the lovely library.

With each new year comes new goals.

Deciding on a goal can be hard, unsure of what to change for this new year. A new goal for myself is to be happier and take care of myself more. I am a very driven person; so driven that I commit to a million and ten things.
