What on Earth would I do without you?

Mar 14, 2017

Dear Kelly,

I will never forget that day in 8th grade when I was dealing with my super duper dramatic "break up" and needed someone to talk to about it, so near the end of english class I turned around to talk to you. And thank god that I did. It's crazy to think how far we have come from that very moment near the end of our time in middle school to now sophomores in college. A lot has changed and happened to me over the last 6 years but something that has always been a constant in my life is you. Yes of course we have had our bad moments and really petty arguments, but we always seem to find our way back from them and better than we were before. I am writing this letter to you to let you know, if you somehow didn't know already, how much I admire, cherish and love you.

You have literally seen my life unfold into a million different pieces and helped me pick every single one of them up. Without hesitation you were always my shoulder to cry on whenever I needed it. You listened to what I was saying and somehow always knew what to say to or do to me to make me feel like everything wasn't so bad. No matter what was going on I knew I could always count on you to be there for me. That is something I will remember for the rest of my life. You believe in me and my crazy dreams of being a writer which makes chasing after them a little less scary. You encourage me when I feel like giving up and cheer the loudest when I succeed and that means more to me than you will ever know.

We have made some of the most amazing memories together, like our countless sleepovers to going to Disney together for a week or seeing Ed Sheeran live front row (best gift I ever gave btw), that I will never ever forget. Getting together is filled with non-stop laughter and ridiculous amounts of junk food and I wouldn't have it any other way. Because of you I have learned to be less shy and have break out of my shell. You are the person who makes me laugh the loudest in the room and reminds me that life is too short to not let lose every now and then and to just have fun. Thank you for being you.

Please never forget that I am so thankful to have you in my life and to get to call you my best friend. Nothing and nobody on the face of the earth could ever replace you. You are my person. I want you to know how proud I am of you each and every day. You have been faced with so many difficulties of your own and have overcome them all and work harder each day. I look at the doubts and fears you have about your future and I just have to say that you are going to be the most incredible nurse ever. It certainly won't be an easy path to walk down but know that I have full faith in you succeeding and will be there for you every step of the way, just like you have always been with me.

We may not live 5 minutes away from each other anymore and getting dinner together even once a month is next to impossible, but just know the one thing that will never change about us is that we will always be best friends. I love you so much.

Love always,

Dominique

P.s. Thanks for forgiving me for that time I hit your car LOL

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September. It becomes harder and harder to focus in classes and while doing assignments as the days get closer. The winter has been lagging, the days are short and dark, and no one is quite themselves due to lack of energy and sunlight. Let's face it: life is ten times better in the summertime.
