A thank you to my forever friends.

To My Sisters

Dear Sisters,

At this time last year, I didn’t know the majority of you. Last fall I contemplated joining a sorority, and I had many questions about what it would bring to me. Now, after just 8 months since joining a sorority, I have found many amazing things. You, my sisters, are at the top of that list.

I have known you all for less than a year, and I still find myself asking how I managed to survive without you. You have brought a light into my life that I didn’t know I was missing. As sappy and cliché as it may sound, I am a better person because of you. I hope you know that.

Life would be boring without you. There is nothing better than a night out with you all. You never let me dance alone. You stay in and order a pizza with me when I don’t feel like going anywhere. I have laughed more in one night with you than I think I ever have in my life before you came along. Our endless heart-to-hearts, study breaks at Wells and football games will always be some of my favorite memories.

You matter. Never let anyone tell you otherwise. You are so important. Everything you do is important. College can be tough, it can be hell actually, but never let it get the best of you. I know that all of you are going to do amazing things. Remember that. I’ll remind you every day if I must. You matter.

You are SO beautiful!!!!!! Inside and out. I am in awe of each of your amazing qualities. You are some of the nicest, sweetest and most down to earth women I have ever had the pleasure of knowing. Your intelligence rubs off on me, your kindness warms my heart and your determination makes me want to be better; to do better.

Thank from the bottom of my heart for all of this and more.

Thank you for the countless laughs we have shared, for keeping me up all night talking about anything and everything. Our friendship shows no boundaries. Thank you for never letting me eat alone or go to bed feeling sad. You have silently sat with me while I’ve cried. You know that you don’t even have to say anything, because you being there for me no matter what speaks louder than words ever could. Thank you for loving me at 11pm when I am dressed up or at 11am when I have just rolled out of bed. I am never afraid to come to you with my problems because I know that you have my back at any time of the day, any day of the week. You have me. Thank you for being my forever friends, and thank you for your reassurance that you will always be here.

Thank you for showing me the meaning of true friendship. I have always wanted such friendships.

Now I do.

Love Forever and Always,

Your sister.

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.

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!
