8 Ways My BFF Is The Ann To My Leslie

Parks and Rec might have a dynamic duo, but they have nothing on us.

Of course by my age, I have been through many best friends. There's the one from preschool that you still talk to, the one from elementary school who seems to have gone off the deep end, the one from middle school who turned out...interesting, and the one from high school who you try and keep in touch with, but it is tough with the new added distance of your colleges. Everyone always says that the best people you will ever meet are the ones that you meet in college and I can attest to the fact that that is 110% true. One of these friends was the most unexpected, and became my friend incredibly fast - like hurricane hitting a group of islands fast.


Quickly it became apparent that you and I were like one of the most iconic duos of all time, Leslie Knope and Ann Perkins from Parks and Rec. And here are the reasons why.


1. You understand my love of pretending to be on House Hunters, and are always eager to "townhouse shop".


2. We are close, so we are occasionally confused as being in a relationship.

This could not get any farther from the truth, so it is always hysterical.


3. You are always there to support my weird eating habits, and will definitely help me enjoy the pizza I order late at night.


4. You make sure to call me when you need a pep talk, even it's at 2am because you know that's how we roll.


5. We agree to disagree on small issues, even though we first make sure to convince the other that they're wrong.

Like the fact that I don't like chocolate.


6. We always stand up for each other, and make sure that we are the same page with who we dislike currently. And we are aware that those people can change at any time.


7. We always gossip about every detail of our boys.

I am sure you are sick of hearing about my boyfriend now, after a year. But, listening is your job.


8. You are the person who made me cry a lot when I left you for the summer, because you made such an unexpected impact.

I promise I will not change, and we will start up again as one of the best duos of all time in September.

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.
