Sweet friendship refreshes the soul

A Letter To My High School Best Friends

Hey Girls,

I have been so blessed to know you girls and have you in my life. As the new girl my freshmen year you immediately welcomed me with open arms. You loved me through the good times and the bad. When I met you girls I was an entitled brat who thought the universe revolved around me. You stayed by my side all the way through high school and up to this very moment as I have grown and matured as a person. I know we do not see eye to eye on every subject but honestly who does? We have so many fond memories of school dances, sporting events, and many, many theatre productions.

We were always told during our senior year to love the time with our friends because after graduation we probably would never speak again. I was always so determined not to let that happen with you guys. I am so glad that we didn't let that happen. You guys keep me grounded even though we don't talk often. I can't believe all the changes that have happened in our lives since then. We have seen joy and heartache. We have laughed and made it a point to see each other. One of you is married which still amazes me and still seems odd. You're gonna be on the other side of the world and I know when you get back it will be as though we didn't miss a beat. One of you is drowning in school work to become a nurse. All because you love people and want to care for them. Yet you always find time to shoot me a quick text.

Girls I just wanted to thank you. For listening to my stories dozens of times and not getting annoyed with me. For being kind to the new girl at school and making that transition an easy one. For encouraging me with what I set my mind to. For dealing with my ego and never being harsh with me as I figured out who I was a person. You girls are seriously the best friends a person could have as she worked on finding herself. So thank you both for being my rock to cling to and a person to talk to without judgment.

Lots of Love,

The luckiest one of us.

The Unwritten Rules Of "Talking"

What is "talking?" How does one "talk?"

Now that it seems “talking” is the new way to date, and will stay that way until another idiotic term is used to describe the people who can’t settle down and just date someone, I feel as if it’s time to go over the unwritten rules of “talking.”

Rule 1. Having feeling without feeling.

What's up Asshat,

I've composed a list of things that I wish upon you, and they're harsh and cruel. These things are things that I wouldn't wish upon my worst of enemies, not even that Starbuck's barista who always screws up my order, not even him. You fall into a whole other category of hate. You surpass Starbucks barista. Congratulations, I'm actually a pretty nice person, making you worthy of every single bit of torture I wish upon you. What are these things I wish upon you you might ask?
