An Open Letter to an Old Friend

You will always be someone who is important to me

An Open Letter to an Old Friend

You know if this is about you, so if you're confused just keep reading. How are you doing? I'm doing well just in case you were wondering. We haven't talked awhile, so long that I feel like I don't know you anymore. Do you feel the same way? I wonder that a lot. We had a lot of good times, great times actually. Days spent just talking for hours on end while going from our favorite restaurant to the mall to just driving around town. We told secrets, we ranted, we laughed, and we talked about the future. I don't know what happened. All of a sudden all of that just stopped. I often wonder if it was something I did. Maybe I just wasn't enough for you. I don't want to put the blame on you but yet I don't want to put it on myself because are we really to blame for this? When to people drift apart is anyone to blame? Maybe time just wasn't in our favor and our friendship wasn't meant to last. It's upsetting to think about it like that, but it's something we have to do. I will forever cherish our friendship because as cliche as it sounds, being friends with you changed me and I started to become someone who I always wanted to be.

Maybe you feel the same way to...

I hope you do. I hope You enjoyed your time with me because I enjoyed my time with you. I see that you're doing well. You seem happy and you seem like you're having fun with your other friends. Maybe in the future we will reconnect. I hope you accomplish your dreams. I hope you fall in love. I hope you go all the places you've always wanted to go. Most importantly I hope you live a happy life. I'm not angry our friendship ended, I was upset at first but as time went on I moved on and so did you. You probably expected this to be something negative, but now you know the truth and hopefully you feel better about it. On one last very important note, thank you. From the bottom of my heart, thank you.

Yours Truly,

McKenna

The Daily Struggles of Being a College Commuter

It's not all morning coffees and singing along to the radio.

The Daily Struggles of Being a College Commuter
morethanwheels

I've been in college for four years now. I spent half my time as a commuter and half as a resident so I've experienced both sides of the housing spectrum. One thing I've learned comparing the two is that my struggles as a commuter far outweigh anything I went through while living on campus. Commuters have to deal with the problems school brings along with a slew of other issues; I've filled up my gas tank in the worst kind of weather conditions and napped in random places in public more times than I'm proud to say of. This is a list of some of the most challenging aspects of being a commuter.

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!
