An Open Letter To The Friend Who Thinks I'm Dropping Her

I can assure you I'm not. Not in a million years.

An Open Letter To The Friend Who Thinks I'm Dropping Her

Recently I've been sought after by the male species. Okay, this isn't a new thing...I just haven't been interested until now. I don't need a guy in my life. I get along just fine by myself and with my girls. That's not to say that I'm not interested, it's just...complicated.

But there's one girl in particular. She knows my ins and outs, my ups and downs. She knows about my weird freckles and my toes that she's convinced don't have bones in them. She's something else, she's special. She's the kind of friend who can make your bad days a million times better with a one liner...or an over-priced cup of coffee and a cake pop. She has always made sure I don't have to go through anything alone, even if that means copying my every move so I don't have to look stupid by myself. If I'm crying, chances are she's crying twice as hard. It's just who she is.

She's irreplaceable.

No boy will ever compare or even come close to having the same bond, the same relationship that her and I have...Trust me. She's the friend to approve pictures and play doctor when I need to know what the mysterious bump on my butt may be. She's different. I'm different..and together we're perfectly weird. And that's good enough for us.

Just because there is this boy, doesn't mean there isn't room for you, sweetheart. I have two hands. One for you and one for him, and together we can conquer the world.

Chicks before d!cks, right? Okay, good.

Parks and Recreation excitedly gathered around a laptop at a table in an office setting.

The library. Club lib. The place every college student goes when they want to try and be a productive member of society. Who better to explain your experience than Parks and Rec?

Taylor Swift in orange dress playing a moss-covered piano on stage with bright lights.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

Students walking on a sunny college campus with trees and buildings.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.
