An Open Letter To My Guy Best Friend
Katherine Comeaux

Dear Guy Best Friend,

Having a guy best friend is probably the greatest thing ever! Thank you for being a HUGE part of my life! I value our friendship tremendously and cannot imagine not being friends with you. I wanted to take the time to thank you for all you have done for me! Here's to you best friend:

Thank you for always making me laugh when all I want to do is cry. You never let me sit there feeling sorry for myself. Instead, you come over with your jokes and silly antics and make me forget why I was upset in the first place.

Thank you for not sugar coating anything! Thank you for telling me when that dress does not look good on me and offering me advice on what does. I value your opinion and am so glad that you never hold your tongue and always speak your mind, even if I don't necessarily want to hear it.

Thank you for driving me around and being my chauffeur. Some of my favorite memories are singing (very badly) at the top of my lungs, with my feet on the dashboard riding shotgun in your car. I take the responsibility of copilot very seriously and promise to play the best songs we can sing to.

Thank you for being my brunch date! Spontaneous calls saying, "Get dressed, we are going to get food," are music to my ears. There is no problem in the world that a late night breakfast at Waffle House can't fix. Thank you for making sure I don't starve when I forget to eat because school and life are busy.

Thank you for being my protector (not that I need one because I consider myself as tough as you)! You are always there when that creepy guy downtown won't leave me alone. You walk me to my car when it is late and dark outside. You have purchased countless Uber's for me to ensure that I get home safe. Thank you for always making me feel safe and at ease when you are around.

Thank you for showing me how to be a real friend! You never judge me or question the decisions that I make. You are always a listening ear and a voice of reason when I need you to listen. There is no time that I cannot call on you and I know that you will come running as fast as you can!

Thank you for everything that you do for me! I value our friendship tremendously. Words cannot express how much of an impact on my life you have had. I don't know where I would be in life without you. Thank you for always being my date to sorority events, my late night moviegoer, my shoulder to cry on, my shopping buddy, the one who always buys me chicken nuggets, and most importantly my friend.

Love,

Your Best Friend

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.
