Hi Briannah, how are you doing?

It's been a while. I'm sorry we never had that play date before you moved away. Did you know that I came to your house and an old man came to the door? I think he was your grandfather, but he told me that you weren't there and he didn't know when you would come back. I thanked him and walked back home. That would be the last time I would go over.

I know that it's been 16 years but I just want to know: how are you doing? Where did you end up going? And how are you doing in school? I'm sorry that I forgot about you. Sometimes I forget that you existed. You were only in my life for a brief year, but that one year was a memorable one. Remember all the great times that we had? Remember how we were both trouble makers in class and would be scolded by the teachers for talking all the time and not listening? We were horrible listeners! Oh, do you remember my birthday party at Chuck E. Cheese's and how we played in front of the green screen and pretended that we were pop stars? That was such a fun day! This is actually really embarrassing now, but remember when we were fish for our end of the year performance? During rehearsals we were awful listeners and would constantly get yelled at!

Looking back at it now Briannah, we were partners in crime. As cliché as that is, we were. But like every other friendship we got into fights. Remember when that new kid came into our class and he asked me if we could sit together on the bus back home? I honestly thought our friendship was over that day because you didn't want to talk to me. I remember you glaring at me for the whole bus ride and I was just looking at my back pack not wanting to make eye contact. The next day the teachers had to talk to us and fix our friendship because I was crying. We were completely fine after that and got back to being best friends. Looking back at it, it's pretty funny how we both reacted to that! Could you imagine if we were still friends when we started dating? We would glare at each other all the time in the hallways and go back to being friends the next day! I understand why you were mad at me. You were worried that he would be my new best friend and that I would forget you. Briannah, I wasn't going to forget you. I was just being nice because he didn't have any friends. But I'm glad we worked it out the next day.

These are just some of the memories that I have but I just want to thank you for being my friend and going through all the adventures with me.

Briannah if you're reading this and this somehow gets to you I just want you to know that I hope that you're doing well and accomplishing everything you wanted in life. I never became the pop star that I wanted to be, but I am double majoring in political science and public justice and hoping to accomplish my goals for my future career. I love what I'm doing, and I hope that you love doing whatever you're doing. Good luck and I hope you have a good life!

-Sarah

In honor of Mother’s Day, I have been thinking of all the things my mom does for my family and me. Although I couldn’t write nearly all of them, here are a few things that moms do for us.

They find that shirt that’s right in front of you, but just you can’t seem to find.

Thank You on wooden blocks

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!
