I’m sure you have heard all of the dorm horror stories. Ones about crazy roommates, stuff missing, passive aggressive feelings and completely different sleep cycles. But you lucked out. My best friend will be yours before you know it and although I hate sharing, I am OK with it.

She is possibly the nicest person I know and I’m sure that you two will get along just fine! As long as you love extremely caring, friendly, loyal and genuine people then you are set because this girl is all of the above. When you need some help don’t be shy to ask, she’d be happy to lend a hand to anyone who needs it. If you forgot your laundry in the dryer and took off for class, she’ll happily go get it for you and maybe even fold it too. Not because she feels obligated but because she feels as though it is the right thing to do. She will proofread that essay you are unsure of and make sure you know all your vocab even if it means her staying up later than she planned. Your success will be just as important to her as it is to you. There is no denying her heart is made of gold.

If it’s Friday night and you want to go have fun, she is always up for an adventure. She’ll let you borrow her favorite shirt even if she planned on wearing it. Putting other’s happiness before her own is something she is always doing without even really noticing it. If it’s Sunday night and you want to pig out while watching chick flicks till 4 a.m., she will have a hard time deciding whether to watch "Titanic" or "Dear John" first. That’s my best friend for you, she is all that and usually shares her bag of chips.

I am not saying she is perfect because we all have our flaws but those flaws are so minor and you may have the same ones too. She does get cranky if she doesn’t have her coffee or enough sleep. Sometimes she listens to music that no one quite understands and watches Netflix all day and all night. She will cry because she misses her cat and because the Bachelorette sent home her favorite contestant.

Take good care of her for me. Remind her that a bad test grade isn’t the end of the world and that that boy in her Biology class is not “the one” as much as she wants him to be. Although I am a phone call away, I am also hours away and she may forget that I’m so easy to reach. Be her shoulder to cry on, offer her an ear when she needs to vent. Encourage her to study for five more minutes and to take a few moments for herself every now and then. I can guarantee she will do the same for you.

Like I said, you got lucky. My best friend will be yours too.
