It's undoubtedly peculiar to think we wouldn't have made the acquaintance of one another if it weren't for going in blind our freshman year of college. Having been the best five months of my entire eighteen-year-old life, I believe expressing my gratitude for you gals is the very least I could do for all that you've already done for me!

For each of us, high school was one heck of life lesson. It was a rollercoaster, for it had its ups and downs... Growing up, we developed some friendships we thought would last a lifetime. Some of those friends still continuing indestructibly throughout our lives, and others, unthinkably, drifted away. Oblivious to the extraordinary blessings college, and the man upstairs could bring, I was given the opportunity of meeting three sweet, humorous, kind-hearted, optimistic, considerate, certainly entertaining, wise, and genuine souls. Little was I aware, Grand Valley State University assigned me to not only three roommates, but three individuals who I can gladly pronounce as my best friends.

To the three of you beauties, thank you.

Thank you for your unconditional love. I am very appreciative you all share your beds and the futon for random cuddle puddle sessions with me! Also, thank you for sharing your boyfriend(s) within this random occurrence.

Thank you for including me. Making it a notion that I feel welcome no matter the circumstance is what really warms my heart. Even the smallest things, such as; going out to eat, taking a trip to hike/hammock in the ravines, listen to music together, allowing me to binge watch Netflix with you, introducing me to past/current friends, inviting me on dates with your boyfriend(s), walk to class in pairs, take part in football games, having a workout partner that motivates you to the max, studying together, and even talking to and with me.

Thank you for your support. Motivating me throughout everything that stands in front of me, encouraging me to give it my all, and to hit the audience with my best shot are what strive me to go not 100%, but 110%. Thank you for pushing me to further, greater abilities.

Thank you for your inner-child. Pranking and scaring one another behind the door and fooling around with Anna is truly our specialty! Waking up and making lovely low-key fart noises with the blue horns are the few reasons tears of hilarity come from my eyes. Throwing Alfredo around the room as if we are fearless of destructing anything is always a splendid ole' time. Thank you for creating laughter and joy in room 433 each and every day.

Thank you for being the sisters I never had. Though all of you have at least one biological sister, and I've always dreamt of having one, I am now blessed with the best of three! The quad squad bond is surely some kind of wonderful!

Thank you for your respect, honesty, and communication expertise. I believe our alliance is so strong due to our effectiveness in communicating with each other. I am thoroughly grateful for our openness, individuality, and consideration for one another.

Thank you for being the most reliable alarm clock. Blowing the horn(s), shaking one another, calling names aloud from across the room or beds to awaken the sleep, ya'll are ever so thoughtful to wake one another up to make sure missing class is not even an option!

Thank you for being you. All ya'll are beautiful both inside and out! Your personalities, mindsets, and qualities are what bring out the best in you. I hope you continue to aspire and reach higher than the stars, above all of the atmosphere, to infinity and beyond. I am so very proud of the three of you. I know you will continue to make a difference in many other people's lives, just as you have done for mine.

With sincerity and love forever,

Bed #3
