Best Friend, I Miss You.

I know we just saw each other at Christmas break, but I so wish you could be at my side, conquering the world together, like we were in high school. I mean, we didn’t win the 'Best Friends' award for nothing.

But I know you’re doing great things over there and I believe in you, even when you don’t. But, you should, because you’re awesome and one of the best people I know.

“Good friends are like stars. You don’t always see them, but you know they’re always there.” There isn’t a truer statement to describe our relationship. I love that we can go days without talking, but send a picture, a .gif, a meme, anything, and we pick right back up from where we were. You understand me like no one else does. We never have those awkward endings, where it’s like we want to go do something else, but still want to be nice, so the conversation drags on. We can literally just be like “okay, we’ll talk later, gotta go sleep, to class, play a board game, watch t.v.,” etc. We just get each other. And we don’t feel pressured to respond after said activity is done. It’s natural. But we both know we’re only a call away.

I’ll never forget the first day I saw you and your family, tie die and all. I’m so blessed that you moved and that you came into my life.

We have so many memories, ones I’m sure I’ll forget someday. I should probably start writing them down, but I’m sure you’ll remind me of them later.

I love the fact that we can send a song to each other and no message is needed. The underlying message is: “Listen to this NOW. You’ll love it.”

One of my favorite qualities about you is your ability to listen. I probably take advantage of it too much. But I love how you listen, no matter how fast I talk, and you always support me, wholeheartedly. Don’t get me wrong, you’ll tell me if I’m being dumb, but you always have my back. You don’t know half the people I tell you about, but you never act disinterested, and you understand that sometimes, I just need someone to tell me I’m right, that what I’m doing is okay.

I love how you support any and all of my past and present dreams. Opening my own bakery, being an event planner, doing service. I always joke you’ll be the one to support me. So… start saving up! Just kidding! (kind of)

I love the fact that you’re never mad or jealous, either. Going to a small school means creating lasting and important relationships along the way. I can’t say the same for me. I literally get jealous at the mention of someone’s name other than your family. I’ll work on it, though. But I know that if people saw half the kind-hearted, ambitious, smart, hilarious and beautiful person I see you to be, that you’ll be famous; people fighting for a piece of your time, your heart, and your humor.

Best Friend, I miss you.

But I know we’ll see each other soon.
