An Open Letter To The Best Friend I Made In College
Samantha Davey

Dear Adri,

It's crazy to think that we have become such close friends in such a short amount of time. I find it hard to believe that my boyfriend grew up with you, and you just so happened to transfer to UAlbany and I met you. It's like we were meant to be best friends, right?

Elvis told me how alike we were and how close of friends we would become. I was so happy that I would be introduced to a new person here at UAlbany, especially since I had gone through my first year here and felt like I didn't have many friends. But I'm so glad you came along because you're honestly one of the only people here at college that truly gets me and always understands what I'm thinking. We always look at each other and know what we're thinking and just start laughing, and after these moments I'm just mindblown at the fact that Elvis was right...we are literally the same people in two different bodies (lol).

Sometimes I wish we met sooner, but I think you came at the right time. Sometimes I also forget that we became friends such a short time ago because it feels like we've been friends for years. In just one semester, we have created so many memories I will always cherish, and I know there are so much more to come. From our Target and Marshals trips to watching YouTube videos in bed and eating ice cream. I'm so happy you have become one of my lifelong friends here at college and we get to experience this crazy journey together.

Thank you for being my friend, Adri. Without you, I wouldn't have a best friend not only here at college, but in life. Thank you for always being there to support and motivate me, to comfort me and for being my right hand. I'll always do the same for you and be there whenever you need me. I love you, here's to being forever friends.

Love,

Sam

Oh yea, Christmas. It’s time to take out all of the decorations and Christmas themed things that have been sitting in the attic since last year; it’s time to make a reappearance. So, here are 10 things that happen the second Thanksgiving is over.

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

Happy Birthday Cake

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.
