Hey you,

I am sure you 're probably reading this. I just want to say that I miss you. I miss your contagious laugh and the kindness you always displayed. I thought nothing would come in between our bond. I really thought we would future bridesmaids whenever we actually got our lives together and got married. I just knew you would always be the first person I called during a situation, whether it was good or bad. I miss that you were just a text or Snapchat away. You were like a sister to me.

It's so weird to me that all of that is gone. It kills me a little on the inside that when your name comes up in conversation that I have to change the subject before I say something I will regret. I miss being able to see you after long periods of time and talk like time did not pass by at all. We used to not be able to go a week without communicating and now it's been months since I have even opened a Snapchat from you.

Most importantly though I want to tell you: thank you. Thank you for leaving me. Thank you for starting terrible and untrue rumors about me. Your gossip made me develop an even deeper appreciation for the truth. Your need for attention and thirst for drama made me realize that the Lord created me to be a part of something than this world.

I am grateful for our failed friendship because our failed friendship helped me realize that just one failed relationship would not define me. This lesson helps not only in our friendship but in my life. A failed relationship with a boyfriend, girlfriend, family member, or friend does not define who you are, who you want to be, or where the future will take you.

The future is a scary and beautiful thing. And to be honest I am glad I am facing the future without you.

Sincerely,

The Girl You Abondaned

College is a crazy, beautiful, amazing whirlwind. It is highly popularized in television and movies, but not necessarily in the most accurate way. Yes, there's frats, dingy dorms, raging house parties—but there's also a lot that people fail to mention.

1. If you thought that you knew how to study, you're wrong.

All of your classes aren't taught every day, so professors aren't on your case constantly about reading and memorizing material. Once you get back that "questionable" first exam grade, you'll kick it into high gear and figure out what works for you

Your mom: you can't live with her, but you can't live without her. You love your mom, but she is insanely predictable. Here is a list of things your mom has probably done.

Girl With Bleached Hair

I've been a bleach blonde for over a year now, and let me tell you, it is a lifestyle. More hair appointments, longer showers, and special shampoo. But it is totally worth it!

1. Mentally preparing yourself to convince your hair dresser that white is the way to go.

2. Or the anxiety of what could go wrong by bleaching your hair at home.

3. You could either become a ginger

4. Or a pixie

5. The face you make in the mirror when you take off your towel to unveil the perfect white strands.

6. Taking a million selfies the day you bleached it, because you know your roots will be back in literally 2 days.

7. Having to get bangs or a big chop because your hair is so damaged.

8. Having orange highlights in between touch-ups.

9. Going out for a drink afterwards to debut your updated look.

Despite the struggles, you love your platinum blonde hair! You make sure Instagram knows it, too. You don't need a filter, because the color is flawless by itself!

Finals: just thinking about them gives you anxiety. Only two weeks separate you from summer, but they're the longest of the semester. There's a familiarity to this season, now that you have had so many testing cycles under your belt. But that doesn't quell the ever present stress to pass your finals and your classes. Even better, as a package deal during these wonderful weeks, you get to wake up early to study and you get to take exams that can begin anytime from 7 A.M. to 7 P.M. Now that we have established that this week is not fun, here are some super relatable moments that punctuate finals week.

I've been at this college thing for almost three and a half years, and while I thought that high school was truly the lowest point of my existence, I'm beginning to realize that it was a walk in the park. Like, I miss the days when the biggest white lie I told my parents was my made up excuse about being late for fourth period. These days, the white lies are a tad more complex, and as ashamed as I am to admit it, I've definitely told a few of these.
