Dear Ex-Best Friend,

I know we aren't really considered friends anymore. We follow each other on Instagram, Snapchat and Twitter but we never actually talk. We might comment on each others posts every once in a while but it's just us being nice. It's been a while since we actually talked. You know, how we used to. How we used to lay on the floor in your bedroom blast some Jonas Brothers or Miley Cyrus, and cry over stupid boys (no really why did I let you cry over him?). Somedays I think about you and how you are. Some of the most random things will remind me of our friendship. Whether you show up on my TimeHop or some random show we used to watch at 3 A.M. comes on.

You were my best friend. I know things change and we definitely changed. There were days where I didn't even know how to talk to you because I could feel us drifting apart. I'm hoping you felt it too. We had our friends we made at college. It was so strange to me that people I met in just a few weeks became closer to me than you and I ever were. But maybe that just showed that I didn't need to be stuck in a friendship with someone who seemed to not care.

You began to bully me over the stupidest things. You didn't care that I was off to college, making great friends and memories that'll last. You weren't happy for me at all. Even though we were going through the same transition. You were off to college too, making great friends and memories that'll last. But for some reason you always got mad when I was hanging out with my college friends. You could've been happy for me as I was for you.

Maybe our drifting apart was going to happen all along. As much as we wanted to be each others bridesmaid, and how you were suppose to be my Brooke Davis. Maybe a life long friendship for us just wasn't in the cards. It's sad that we spent so much time together and now if someone asks me what you're up to my only answer is "uh." No matter how many stupid fights we had, or that I don't know what you're doing today. I'll always care. I'll always miss the good times we had.

Maybe one day we'll meet up somewhere and talk about that stupid boy you cried over, or about the parties we went to. We'll laugh and smile about the good times in our friendship. We might only keep up to date on each other via social media now. But maybe it's for the best.

You'll always be my Brooke Davis.

Love,

Your Ex-Bff

I think the hardest thing about going away to college is figuring out how to become an adult. Leaving a household where your parents took care of literally everything (thanks, Mom!) and suddenly becoming your own boss is overwhelming. I feel like I'm doing a pretty good job of being a grown-up, but once in awhile I do something that really makes me feel like I'm #adulting. Twenty-somethings know what I'm talking about.

I went to a small high school, like 120-people-in-my-graduating-class small. It definitely had some good and some bad, and if you also went to a small high school, I’m sure you’ll relate to the things that I went through.

1. If something happens, everyone knows about it

Who hooked up with whom at the party? Yeah, heard about that an hour after it happened. You failed a test? Sorry, saw on Twitter last period. Facebook fight or, God forbid, real fight? It was on half the class’ Snapchat story half an hour ago. No matter what you do, someone will know about it.

Chandler Bing

I'm assuming that we've all heard of the hit 90's TV series, Friends, right? Who hasn't? Admittedly, I had pretty low expectations when I first started binge watching the show on Netflix, but I quickly became addicted.

Without a doubt, Chandler Bing is the most relatable character, and there isn't an episode where I don't find myself thinking, Yup, Iam definitely the Chandler of my friend group.

Working with the public can be a job, in and of itself. Some people are just plain rude for no reason. But regardless of how your day is going, always having to be in the best of moods, or at least act like it... right?

1. When a customer wants to return a product, hands you the receipt, where is printed "ALL SALES ARE FINAL" in all caps.

2. Just because you might be having a bad day, and you're in a crappy mood, doesn't make it okay for you to yell at me or be rude to me. I'm a person with feelings, just like you.

3. People refusing to be put on hold when a customer is standing right in front of you. Oh, how I wish I could just hang up on you!
