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.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.
