To My Friend As She Falls In Love

To My Friend As She Falls In Love

New love is hard to balance between working, spending time with family, going to school, and to top it all off you have to spend time with your friends too. You're just adding a whole other level to your life. It's not meant to be stressful but sometimes it turns out that way when it's piled on top of everything else in your life. Falling in love with someone is supposed to be one of the greatest feelings when you're young but when you're doing it make sure your eyes are open to how you're treating other people.

Don't get me wrong I'm happy you're finally happy, it's been a long time coming. You've been through so much that it's almost hard to believe sometimes. You deserve a man who's going to love you through every freakout and even when you haven't eaten yet and are a complete you-know-what. I love seeing you smile and I love seeing the sparkle in your eye when you see his name on your phone but I can't help but feel left in the dust.

Through every guy that didn't work out or treated you like you were nothing I was there. I picked up the pieces and tried my best to make everything okay even though I knew you just had to cry it out. And when those tears did come I was the one that held you tight (even though I don't like to be that close to anyone, and you know that) and I'll be the one to do it again if things don't work out here. I know that life is taking us on completely different paths as of late with work, school, and me being almost three hours away and yes that is part of the problem but I feel like I'm the only one trying. I wanna hear about your first day of classes or for you to call me on your way from work like you always used to, but I feel like I'm bothering you.

It breaks my heart to see you distancing yourself from me, whether intentionally or unintentionally. And I hope reading this you see how I feel. I don't expect you to understand what I'm going through or my reasoning behind this piece but I hope you do have time to sit down and think about the way things have changed and how I've been pushed to the side.


I love you, always.

Dear High School Friend Group,

My sweet angels, where would I be without you guys. We all grew up together because we either met in middle school or high school and watched each other grow up and get "old." We got to go to prom together and then graduate together. Then watched each other as we continued our lives in college, joining sororities and meeting people who will impact our lives forever. It all has happened so fast.

Oh college, we can’t live with you, but we can’t live without you. It’s a love/hate relationship, really. College is an experience that no one can ever prepare you for, and maybe that’s a good thing. You never really expect any of the things that college encompasses until you are there. College is fun, but don’t have too much fun. C’s get degrees, but they don’t get you into graduate school.

Blair Waldorf

The "Gossip Girl" series may be over, but Blair Waldorf's iconic character lives in our hearts forever. Blair was the queen of the Upper East Side, and a character you either loved or hated. She taught us everything we needed to know about life, love and of course, how to score a Chuck Bass. So the next time you feel a bit lost and are in need of guidance, look no further than to the Queen B herself.

As I spend my Sunday avoiding my homework and other adult responsibilities, I realized that I've watched this series over and over about a million times. Sadly, there isn't a Blair quote I don't know, so I came up with a list of a few favorites. You know you love her...xoxo

College is an endless cycle of crappy, sleepless nights, tedious, boring lectures, and hours of never-ending piles of homework.

Summer: a time (usually) free from school work and a time to relax with your friends and family. Maybe you go on a vacation or maybe you work all summer, but the time off really does help. When you're in college you become super close with so many people it's hard to think that you won't see many of them for three months. But, then you get that text saying, "Hey, clear your schedule next weekend, I'm coming up" and you begin to flip out. Here are the emotions you go through as your best friend makes her trip to your house.
