A Letter To My Roommates As We Part For The Summer

Don't forget to remember me

A Letter To My Roommates As We Part For The Summer

It's crazy to think that summer is right around the corner. Feels like just yesterday we were unpacking and just getting the feel of all living together and finally getting to know each others weird habits. Here are some things I want you to remember as we part for the summer...


Stupid minuscule things won't be as fun without you guys

Every little thing. Driving down the street to get 99 cent iced coffee, going to the library, forcing you guys to go to the mall with me, and so much more. It won't be as fun, just simply because you won't be there with me.

Coming home will be so different

Pulling into the house won't be anywhere near as exciting knowing I won't walk into you guys being excited I'm home or vice versa.

Car rides will suck

Who will I sing Roses with? Who will I belt out Lumineers with? Who will yell at me to turn around when we've realized I have accidentally driven the wrong way down a one way? Exactly, I need you guys.

Going to bed won't be as eventful

Yelling "I love you" non-stop, tagging each other in stupid videos and hearing the others laugh from our rooms, and so much more.

Going out without you guys just won't feel right

What do I even do if you guys are not there? I don't think I know to be completely honest.


Making dinners from Pinterest won't be as exciting

Who will critique my meals? Or cook me meals when I'm too lazy to?

You gotta tell me what you're doing, where you are, and who you're with every day

Not really, but seriously.

Last but not least, don't forget about me

I know we won't be super far away, but still, going from being down the hall to down the block, or in a different state, won't be easy. Just please don't forget me, and thank you for being by my side every step of the way these last semesters.

Basically, I love you guys. And I could not imagine what this last year would have been without you. I am forever thankful for all the funny, stupid, and weird memories we have made and I can't wait to make even more.

I've known you your entire life. More than likely I held you in the first three days of it and at least one of us cried. Cousins are truly one of the best things in the world and while sometimes I complain about how many people crowd Grandma's living room on Christmas Eve, I wouldn't trade you all anything.

You are my best friends, the only people who can understand what it's like on Thanksgiving, and you are the spunkiest people I have ever met. But you as so so young, most of you are just now starting your adventures in the public education system. I mean, I'm so very young too. I'm not married, I don't have children, heck, I just started my adult life, but I do want to give you what little advice I have. My dears, these are the things I want you to know.

You are a senior in high school, you have made it to the final year that you have been looking forward to since the first day of freshman year. Whether this has been the worst or best four years of your life, appreciate it. You will never have these times back, you will never be in high school again. It is hard for someone still in high school to wrap their brain around, but there will be a day when you wish you could be in the shoes you're in right now. Here are 15 things I have learned being in college that I wish I knew as a high school senior:

Everyone, and I mean everyone has heard of the show "One Tree Hill". Many people think that this show is the best thing they've ever watched and others won't bother watching it because they know they'll get hooked. And yes, I know many people have written about this show before, but I couldn't resist. I could re-watch every season multiple times to the point where I can almost quote an entire scene. Trust me, once you start "One Tree Hill", you will be hooked. There's way too many reasons to list as to why you'll love this show, and these are just a few.

5 Ways To Bring Positivity Into Your Life When All You Want To Do Is Drown In Self-Pity

It seems like life has been serving up more bad than good and in all honesty, the only thing you want to do is crawl under your covers and hide from the rest of the world.

The first two weeks of classes have come to an end and they have been anything BUT easy. It seems like life has been serving up more bad than good and in all honesty, the only thing you want to do is crawl under your covers and hide from the rest of the world.

Although this seems like the best solution, it is also the easy way out. Take it from the girl who took basically a whole week off from her life because she just could not handle everything that was being thrown at her. This caused her to feel extremely lonely and even more stressed out for being behind in classes that JUST began.
