Dear Best Friend,

First off, I just want to say that I miss you terribly while you are away at college.

I don't say this enough, but I appreciate your friendship more than you know. There are not many people who I can share as much as I share with you...and not many people who I can be as weird with as I can be with you.

You are my first call when things are going crappy and my first text when things are going well. You are the best listener and one of the least judgmental people I have met in my eighteen years of life. You let me be weird, loud, and make bad jokes without many questions or objections.

You are my person and that is significant because you came into my life when I needed you most. You came into my life and made me trust someone again. You made me realize that I could have a best friend again right when I had started to believe that best friends were not a thing anymore. You helped me heal the hurt of previous friendships and that, to me, is something that I will be eternally thankful for.

You know about my darkness and that didn't scare you away. You never judged the mistakes I made. You didn't even change your opinion of me when we were driving down Randall Road one night and I told you that thing about me. Something that I didn't tell many people.

Sometimes you annoy me, sometimes you piss me off, but that comes with any friendship. I'm sure I annoy you all the time or piss you off more than you would like me to. I just have to say though that there is no one else I would rather be annoyed with. I don't deal with annoyance well, but with you it's okay because you're my best friend. There's more good with you than there could ever be bad and that is so encouraging to me.

Lastly, I just want to say that I love you with all my heart. You are truly a blessing to me, and I am grateful for all that you do for me. I know I can be dramatic, strong-headed, and hard to deal with, but I am so glad that you put up with my constant crap because not many would. I admire the heart that you have on your sleeve. You genuinely care about people and that is such a beautiful trait that you carry. It is also amazing to see how you grow with the Lord, it is evident in everything you say and do. I cannot wait to see how the Lord continues to shape and sculpt you over time. Good things are coming for you, I am sure of that. Okay, love. Come home soon.

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.
