An Open Letter To My Best Friend Who Goes To A Different School

We may be far apart, but you're still my best friend.

An Open Letter To My Best Friend Who Goes To A Different School
Austyn Gorski

I miss you a lot, and I know you know it. Considering the fact that we always send each other the ugliest snapchats, the funniest texts and links to hilarious vines. It's weird because I have lived so close to you for my whole life, yet here we are as far apart as ever. I haven't seen you in months.

But wow are you still weird, and you haven't changed a bit. I can tell you the most random of things, and your response is still very much appreciated. I miss the car rides we have together while blaring Paramore and drinking RaceTrac slushies (we probably drank four of those a day during the summer). I miss binge watching “Harry Potter” with you, and spending New Year’s watching movies and eating everything in sight. I miss being on the field with you, and being able to lead a team by each other's side.

But now we're in college, and life is a lot different. I have made new friends that I know I will have forever, and I have made many great memories with them as well. Now before you get jealous and think you've been replaced I want to tell you the exact reason why this letter is to you.

You haven't been replaced, you are irreplaceable.

Our friendship didn't just happen so it could be ended when we went to college (I know that for a fact). Our friendship happened because I learned what true friendship was when I met you. I never had a best friend before you, and I remember telling you that in my basement while we were probably watching Harry Potter for the 100th time. You have been there when I got my first boyfriend, you were there when I needed to vent about a lot of unimportant things, and I know you'll always be there.

So even though we are many, many miles apart. You are still my best friend. And it has truly been an irreplaceable adventure to walk through so many years of life with you.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
