Dear (EX) Best Friend

Dear (EX) Best Friend

Dear Ex Best Friend,

Well, we have a lot to talk about, if we ever do talk again. I really do miss you, but I thank you for a lot.

You sure did set my standards high for what I call a best friend. You were always there, but also told me what was right and what was wrong. You never judged me either. No matter of what I did, you always said that you'll never leave me, no matter what I have done. You also took cute pictures, where ever we were. You didn't care if people stared. We were having fun, and that what mattered most.

Remember that time when somebody punched me in the face and gave me a black eye? Do you remember who went with me to get help? It was you. You helped me and you had my back during that entire time when we were being questioned by the guidance consulars and vice principals and assured me that everything will work out in the end. Do you remember who was always there for you when you had an anxiety attack during school? I was and I always tried making you laugh when going to our next class. You were there for me when my ex broke up with me and told me he didn't deserve me. You were also there when I needed someone to talk to. I was the loud one with a big personality while you were the quiet one but our different personalities really did make us best friends.

Then half way through senior year, you stopped talking to me completely and blocked me out. I don't understand what happened or why I had to watch our friendship shatter right in front of my eyes. It really hurts to know that I'll most likely never get an answer to why our friendship fell apart. We have a lot of history together and you were my "person" - the one person I had to turn to and one of the few people that actually understood me and accepted me for who I was. I know I did and said some things that hurt you and I'm sorry for that. But what hurts me more is that you just walked out on my life without saying a word.

On another note, you were one of the best things to ever happen to me. You showed me so much, and taught me how to control some things. You let me know to not take nothing less than what I need. You showed me that everything happens for a reason, and for sure, we happened for a reason. Maybe one day, we will happen again but until that day, I will always care and love everything about you. Never forget that. I'm still never giving up on you, just like I promised.

The 5 Painfully True Stages Of Camping Out At The Library

For those long nights that turn into mornings when the struggle is real.

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.

I know every college student has daily thoughts throughout their day. Whether you're walking on campus or attending class, we always have thoughts running a mile a minute through our heads. We may be wondering why we even showed up to class because we'd rather be sleeping, or when the professor announces that we have a test and you have an immediate panic attack.

The Great Christmas Movie Debate

"A Christmas Story" is the star on top of the tree.

The Great Christmas Movie Debate
Mental Floss

One staple of the Christmas season is sitting around the television watching a Christmas movie with family and friends. But of the seemingly hundreds of movies, which one is the star on the tree? Some share stories of Santa to children ("Santa Claus Is Coming to Town"), others want to spread the Christmas joy to adults ("It's a Wonderful Life"), and a select few are made to get laughs ("Elf"). All good movies, but merely ornaments on the Christmas tree of the best movies. What tops the tree is a movie that bridges the gap between these three movies, and makes it a great watch for anyone who chooses to watch it. Enter the timeless Christmas classic, "A Christmas Story." Created in 1983, this movie holds the tradition of capturing both young and old eyes for 24 straight hours on its Christmas Day marathon. It gets the most coverage out of all holiday movies, but the sheer amount of times it's on television does not make it the greatest. Why is it,
then? A Christmas Story does not try to tell the tale of a Christmas miracle or use Christmas magic to move the story. What it does do though is tell the real story of Christmas. It is relatable and brings out the unmatched excitement of children on Christmas in everyone who watches. Every one becomes a child again when they watch "A Christmas Story."
