To My BFF Two States Away

To My BFF Two States Away
Taylor Ashmore

I'm not going to lie, being away from you is hard. You never really get used to being away from your best friend. It's harder to share the little things in life, like the fact that I got an A on my math quiz or the fact that I tripped going up the stairs today. Sometimes I feel dumb texting you these things, even though I used to talk to you for hours about some of the most meaningless things.

Whenever I hesitate to send you a text saying "omg you won't believe what just happened," I remember that I love to hear everything going on in your life. I love hearing the fact that you saw the random guy we met at our first party or that you finally finished Shameless (it was about time). Every single text from you, makes me smile.


(even this one)

Even though we're two states away, we're still the same friends we were a year ago, we just have to work a little harder for it. Being apart from each other has shown me just how important our friendship is. Even though we live 362 miles away from each other, we still manage to "see" each other every day, whether it be through a snapchat, text, or even a meme on instagram.

Some friendships are worth the distance and ours definitely makes that list. Even though we only get to see each other a few times a year, it makes those days just a little more special. Sometimes it feels like we're catching up on the past few months in a matter of hours, but after that it feels like old times, where we would sit and watch Sex and the City together for hours. It's worth the wait to see you if it means sitting around, doing nothing except talking.

I will always be there for you, even if I'm not physically there. I'm always a phone call away. Being away from each other definitely changes some things, but it doesn't change the fact that you are without a doubt one of my best friends. And, even though it goes without saying, I miss you.

As Coldplay says, See You Soon.

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.

10 Reasons To Thank Your Best Friend

Take the time to thank that one friend in your life you will never let go of.

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.

Everybody gets sick once in a while, but getting sick while in college is the absolute worst. You're away from home and your mom who can take care of you and all you really want to do is just be in your own bed. You feel like you will have never-ending classwork to catch up on if you miss class, so you end up going sick and then it just takes longer to get better. Being sick in college is really tough and definitely not a fun experience. Here are the 15 stages that everyone ends up going through when they are sick at college.

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!
