When they say the friends you make in college will be your friends for life, it's definitely a true statement. Freshman year, I didn't believe that quote, but it's only because I didn't find my "squad" until sophomore year. Now, we are inseparable and I couldn't imagine life without them and not seeing them every single day. From spending too much money, eating out too much, and spending too much time downtown, we have truly become attached at the hip.
We share the same sisterhood.
Out of all of the houses on campus, we all chose the same one. Life would be so different if we were in different houses (we may not even know each other) but I sure am thankful we are here together. Big shoutout to my girl Georgia D. for bringing us together. No matter where we'll go in life, we'll always be connected with our letters.
We eat Mexican more than anyone should.
You would think by now that we would be able to cook our own chicken quesadillas, and even make our own chips, salsa, and queso based on how much we eat Mexican.
We share each other's closets.
Thank you, thank you, thank you for letting me borrow your clothes all the time, and you're welcome for borrowing mine! I know if I don't have anything to wear, I can run to one of your closets and find the perfect outfit.
We don't judge each other, ever.
Talking to your ex again? Or the guy missing a certain facial feature? Your college squad may be mad at you, but at least they let you do what you want to do and just welcome you back with open arms when it doesn't work out, again. It's never an "I told you so", but always a "come here, it's going to be okay".
We get mad at each other, but work it out.
Sometimes, we spend way too much time together and we have to have a yelling match to get all of our frustrations out, but it never lasts long. I'm glad we are close enough to be honest with each other all the time and tell each other exactly how we feel. And after it's over, we get to makeup with a Mexican date.
We go everywhere together.
Going four hours away? Load everyone up and get on the road! Not only do we have fun in our college town, but we have fun in other ones as well. Going to a date party at another university? I found you a date, so come on! Life sure is a lot easier to take on with you all by my side.
Thank you all for always being here for me whenever I need you. College is flying by, but I know we will always be close, even when we are older. So, here's to making the rest of college as awesome as the first half has been.
