Thank You Letter To My Best Friend

I don’t think I could ever express how thankful I am to have you in my life.

Thank You Letter To My Best Friend
Breanna Redmond

Dear best friend,

You have shown me things about myself that I haven’t seen in years and am so very grateful for that. I have struggled with a lot of things over the past year, and you managed to make all that pain disappear. When I hit rock bottom and was struggling to pull myself back up, your hands were the hands that helped to lift me up and dust me off. When I hit obstacles in my life that I feel are impossible, you are always there helping me get through it. I don’t think I could ever express how thankful I am to have you in my life, but I am sure as hell going to try.

Thank you for always being there for me.

There have been more times than I can count where I would call you because I needed advice, and you always manage to answer my calls no matter what. You make sure you check in on me at least once a day to see how my days going. Even on the nights where I had been so depressed all I wanted to do was lay there in silence, you still stayed on Skype with me to make sure I was all right. You made sure I knew you were by my side and weren’t leaving when I was having anxiety attacks this summer.

Thank you for picking me up when I was down.

When I have been at my lowest points, you have picked me up and helped me realize that I was not alone, and I was strong enough to get through it. I know you will always be here to pick me up when I’m down, and for that, I am very much grateful.

Thank you for knowing what I’m thinking.

I am definitely not the type of person who likes to admit that they are worried or upset, and I don’t have to with you. There are more times than I can count where I didn’t have to say a word for you to know that something was wrong.

Thank you for being easy to talk to.

I do not open up to a lot of people because I have been betrayed too many times when I do, but you make it easy for me to talk to you and trust you. You never judge me when I tell you the secrets of my past or when I am over-thinking about a situation.

Thank you for never giving up on me.

I know I am not the easiest to handle, and there are days when I just want to give up, but you never once showed me any indication that you would leave. You stick by my side even on the nights I have to be reassured multiple times that I’m not a burden to you.

Thank you for being you.

As you very well know, I have had a lot of experiences with the not so good people in my life. I had almost given up on there still being any good left until you came into my life. You are a constant reminder that there are still good people left in the world.

Thank you so very much,

Breanna

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.
