To The Friends I Lost After High School

An open letter to the friends I lost after high school was over.

To The Friends I Lost After High School
Chellenicole

Dear Old Friends,

I'm sorry things didn't work out after high school ended, but it just became exhausting trying to please every one of you when I wasn't happy myself.

Anything I ever said wasn't good enough.

Anything I ever did for you guys just didn't seem to cut it.

We had made so many amazing memories in just the short amount of time within our high school careers we had with each other. The concerts, the parties, the movie and half-off-apps nights, the random adventures out east for ice cream. Everything seemed so perfect;

Until high school was over.

I always think about the memories we made and shared together. I still miss you all no matter what I've said about any of you after we stopped talking. You were all a major part of my life and you'll always have a piece of my heart no matter what. Sometimes I wish we were still stuck in high school, meeting at our lockers and deciding where to go out for lunch rather than all of it just ending because you all changed when we became official alumni.

I'm sorry if I wasn't a great friend to you while we were still in contact.

I'm sorry if you got mad at me for something I said.

I'm sorry if I never asked how you were if you were sad.

I am only human and I can only try to be the best friend a girl can be.

I can never look back at prom or graduation pictures and think, "wow I'm so lucky to have such amazing friends like that in my life."

You're all gone.

Most of you are all away at college and I guess you could say it made the transition easier, but in reality it didn't.

I would wish you all nothing but the best of luck in the years to come and maybe someday we can all work out our differences and reconnect.

Love,

Your Old Best Friend

The Daily Struggles of Being a College Commuter

It's not all morning coffees and singing along to the radio.

The Daily Struggles of Being a College Commuter
morethanwheels

I've been in college for four years now. I spent half my time as a commuter and half as a resident so I've experienced both sides of the housing spectrum. One thing I've learned comparing the two is that my struggles as a commuter far outweigh anything I went through while living on campus. Commuters have to deal with the problems school brings along with a slew of other issues; I've filled up my gas tank in the worst kind of weather conditions and napped in random places in public more times than I'm proud to say of. This is a list of some of the most challenging aspects of being a commuter.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!
