A Goodbye To My Closest Friends

Leaving the girls who have always been by my side

A Goodbye To My Closest Friends
Megan Adair

The moment we've been dreading but also been counting down for all our lives

The time is here, it's time to say goodbye


All going separate ways, finding our own path

Our time here will soon be in the past

Pursuing degrees to be turned into jobs

Hopefully you will still have time to call


"Face time me every night" we say

"We can't lose touch, okay?!"


Thank you technology

It's like my best friends can still be with me

There are hundreds of miles between us

The adjustment is going to be tough

No longer within 5 minutes of each other

Who would've thought we'd ever been further?

A sad goodbye that will turn into the time of our lives


But for now, everyone cries

Packing up the car, getting ready for the trip

Say goodbye to our state, we will all miss

Time to move to our new homes

We will no longer be so close

But nothing can loosen our bond


Our winter and spring breaks better correspond

I'll be dying to see you

I'll miss you so much, you have no clue


Of course, at college we'll make new friends

But best friends forever means this friendship won't ever end


Thank you for all the laughs, time with you was never dull

Thinking about all our memories, my heart is full

I still want to hear every detail of your life even though I will no longer experience it beside you

Thinking about being away from you for months just doesn't feel true

The first couple weeks will be hard

Pictures of us hung in my dorm, you'll always be in my heart

It's time to go find ourselves


Go do things, go on adventures, have stories to tell

I love you best friend

and I will love you until time ends

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.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
