Thank You To My High School Friend Group

Although I wish life stayed the same, there are some things that must change.

Thank You To My High School Friend Group
Kathy Richmond

First and foremost, thank you. Thank you for giving me all of your time, happiness, and friendship. Thank you for every late night hang out, and early morning wake up just to take me to school. You girls truly mean a lot to me, and no matter where we go in life, I'll always remember you and cherish the times we shared together.

I never thought walking into my junior year of high school, I'd become so close with a group of girls (crazy, right?) But it happened. I never thought I'd have friends to hang out with every weekend, no matter what was going on, but you girls gave me that.

We had a friendship that was never ending, we were inseparable. Every homecoming we were together, almost every football game the gang was all there. There was a party for every holiday, and we even had mom's chocolate chip dip every time. We pulled pranks on my mom every chance we could get because we were the cool kids.

Sadly, the whole "squad" hasn't been together in almost 2 years. Everybody has gone their separate ways, doing their own things. A day without talking, turned into weeks, a week without talking turned into months. Truthfully, that kind of hurts.

It's sad to think that we could walk past each other, and act like we've almost never spoken in our life. It's sad that we scroll through social media, just to see the friends that have since replaced us. I imagined this would happen, but truly ill never be able to wrap my head around it.

You ladies were all there for me through some of my darkest times. You saw me fail, and you saw me succeed, but no matter what, you were always there. It's sad to think about how lives change, because you always want those people in your life. No matter what, the true ones will always stay.

To my favorite three girls, whether we talk every day, or even once a year, thank you, from the bottom of my heart. Maybe we weren't supposed to all be "Best Friends Forever," but you gave me friendship throughout the greatest years of my life. You gave me a friendship that not many are lucky to have. Most importantly, you gave me your love and support when I had no where else to turn. I love you all very much, and I'll never forget all of the times we had together.

Love,

The youngest of the bunch

5 Things To Do That Are Better Than Writing A Paper

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?

10 Reasons Why Sisters Are The Best

Who could be a better friend than your own sister?

sisters
Taylor Hooper

I can barely remember back when I was the only child. Most would say it’s because it is extremely difficult to remember things as a toddler but I would say it's because I was bored until my sister came along. My mother always says how important the "sister bond" is and with every year that passes I realize how right she is. Instead of writing a novel about all of the wonderful things there are about having a sister I decided to list a few of them instead.

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.

If you’re anything like me, you love a good cup of coffee. My coffee always comes from Starbucks; I refuse to drink it from anywhere else. Over the years, it’s become one of my biggest addictions. So, if you are aware that you’re a Starbucks addict as well, or maybe you need to check to see if you’re an addict, here are seven ways to tell.

College involves a whirlwind of emotions, whether it’s from the stress of an assignment (or twenty), or from fighting with your roommate. It can be overwhelming at times and it’s important to take a step a back and calmly think things over. Maybe gain some perspective. The following aren’t foolproof tips and may not apply to you, but I was able to find success with them (hope you do too!)
