To the person who made me who I am today,

Let me just start off by saying, life isn't perfect. No one is. Yes I know there's been a distance between us, but at times we were close.

People come in and out of your life for many reasons, and you were one of them. I'm thankful for the memories we made, the laughter we shared, and the talks we had. You taught me a lot, how to journal and to grow closer to the Lord. We even had lots of conversations and encouraged me to be who I am. Thank you

However that all has changed. It's different now. I miss when I could send you a quick text saying "Hey" or call you and check in. I miss our time where we could catch up. I miss our occasional car rides together to church. Remember that one time we went out shopping, bought Halloween decorations, and had a grand old time. That was a great day. Also, remember that time you helped me do my hair and makeup? Well, that was the day I got into makeup and now wear it almost every day. Thank you for teaching me how to do makeup.

Well, definitely times have changed. I miss you not being in my life. I know this is a season, we all to go through a change to grow and mature to become even better people. So this might be a season in our lives where we are just growing and maturing. I do hope someday, we can eventually reunite.

For now, I wish you all the best in whatever you are doing. I miss not following you on social media and finding out what good things you are up to. However, I do know you are doing amazing things. I want to let you know that every day I pray for you. You helped me to become the person I am today, and I am grateful for that.

I hope and pray that we both have learned our lessons. It's definitely been hard over the past few months without you. You made me realize that some people only come in for a reason and leave; others stay in longer. I appreciate the memories, the laughs, the tears, the long talks. Thank you for making me the person I am today.

From,

The person who changed

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?
