Thank you for always being there for me.

When we first met, I never knew that you would become one of my closest best friends. Actually, you are my number 1 best friend. I remember all the fun memories that we have made ever since that day. For example, the Scotty McCreery concert, the Spring Break beach trip, and all the endless car ride that we have had.

During middle school, we had cheerleading that kept us very close and honestly some of the memories that we shared in middle school were good and bad. When I moved to high school, I was scared that we would not be as close as we were. I thought that I would lose my best friend and I was not ready to face that.

During that time away from each other, we never really talked. Then a year later we were back at the same school. I know that we didn't talk a lot or hang out that often, I know that when either one of us needed the other that we would always be there no matter what. I just wanna thank you for that because knowing that I will always have a best friend by my side makes life a little easier.

During my senior year of high school, we got closer again. We made memories during that time and we had the balance of good and bad. We were there for each other when we made and achieved our goals. We also had the bad memories when we both went through breakups a couple months between each other.

I remember when I called you to tell you that my boyfriend broke up with me and you thought that it was prank since you and your boyfriend played it on me a couple months before. Then when you went through your break up, we decided to go to the movies and get CFA to get your mind off it. I greatly appreciate that you were there to help me go through my break up.

I know that we don't hang out together that much anymore and I really wish we would again. But, I want to thank you for all that you have done for me. You have seen me at my lowest and also at my highest. You have been the one that I call to help get my mind off of all the bad stuff.

You are also the one that I call when something good happens. Thank you for being there when I need someone to talk to about boys and I know that when I call you and I need to come to sit on your bed and watch Netflix that you will always say that I can come over.

You have been my best friend for the past 8 years and I have heard when you make it past the first 4 years that you will always be friends for the rest of your lives. Also, I want to tell you Happy Friendaversary! Here's to 8 more years!

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!

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.
