To My Long Lost Friend
Lily Pimentel

I wish I could go back to the time where our friendship ended or just faded away. I am sorry I don’t keep in touch anymore. Life has gotten in the way. You are probably not sure if this is for you, but if we were ever friends, this is for you.

I wish we could have kept our friendship going because I’ve never regretted being friends with anyone. You helped me through things that I could never repay you for.

Having friends has never been my forte. I have a tendency to push people away because I am afraid to get hurt. My whole life I have had a problem with keeping friends. I don’t know why. Maybe we hung out every day and we just stopped. I’m sorry. I know this won’t make up for the lost time, but maybe we can get back in touch. I need healthy relationships in my life. My goal for 2017 is to make lasting friendships, but maybe I did have a friendship that would last a lifetime, and I just gave up on it. So this is for you, this is me reaching out. I just want you to know that I will always care about you and I cherish the memories we did make. If you ever need someone to talk to I am always here for you.

I know in the past I used to say that all the time, but I really mean it. Life has gotten so hard since the last time we talked. When I am scrolling through social media, and I am not going to lie, I look through your pictures. It makes me so happy to see old friends smiling, but I know sometimes when I’m smiling in a picture it doesn’t mean my life is perfect, so if you need someone to talk to I am fully open to just listen to you. Sometimes all a person needs is for someone to listen to them.

So as you enjoy college, a new job, an engagement, a marriage, a baby, or anything life changing just know that I am thinking about you and I am extremely happy for you.

27 Things 'The Office' Has Taught Us

"The Office" is a mockumentary based on everyday office life featuring love triangles, silly pranks and everything in between. It can get pretty crazy for just an average day at the office.

When you were little, your parents probably told you television makes your brain rot so you wouldn't watch it for twelve straight hours. However, I feel we can learn some pretty valuable stuff from television shows. "The Office," while a comedy, has some pretty teachable moments thrown in there. You may not know how to react in a situation where a co-worker does something crazy (like put your office supplies in jello) but thanks to "The Office," now you'll have an idea how to behave ifsomething like that should happen.

Here are just a few of the things that religious Office watchers can expect to learn.

High School And College Sucked All Of The Fun Out Of Reading

Books were always about understanding for me, about learning the way someone else sees, about connection.

I keep making this joke whenever the idea of books is brought up: "God, I wish I knew how to read." It runs parallel to another stupid phrase, as I watch my friends struggle through their calculus classes late at night in our floor lounge: "I hope this is the year that I learn to count." They're both truly idiotic expressions, but, when I consider the former, I sometimes wonder if there's some truth to it.
