Letter Ten: Past, Present & Future Friends
pintrest

Welcome to the third to last letter, you made it this far and I am super proud for you. You kept up with my secrets and now its time for the tenth one.

My friends.

If you were a friend of mine in the past, I left you there for a good reason.

If you are my friend now, it's because I hold you close to my heart.

If you are my friend in the future, that means you made it.

Now I say I am the most "laid-back" friend, but in all honesty that means I'll forget to text you back, I only send memes and I have a dry sense of humor. I use the excuse "sorry I was asleep/busy" too much when I open my messages and realize I hadn't replied in hours, or days. I'll ignore your messages when I'm on Tumblr looking through sad memes, or when I'm watching Netflix, but that's just who I am. I am the people-pleasing goddess of my friendships, when we are out and I have money, you want food I got you. I never expect anything in return, not because I am the mom friend because I let people walk all over me and that's my real downfall. I don't want people to be upset with me, so if they need something, and I can give a little away, I always offer first. I guess that makes me a bit upset when I bend over backwards for people who won't do the same for me. I'm the friend to set the most annoying ringtone to wake me up from a dead sleep to talk to you, or text you, but I won't do that to you because I believe people need space and privacy. I'm always there for peoples 3 am breakdowns, when their brains can't form words and you are a mumbling, sobbing mess. But when I need someone all my friends are "busy."

So guys this is it. I'm no longer going to be "that friend", find someone else to bug at 3am.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
