A Letter To My Freshman Year Hall

Came in as strangers, will leave as family.

A Letter To My Freshman Year Hall
Rate My Campus

To the girls on the third floor of WomCom, (including you Yadkin girls).

I want to start off by saying thank you. Thank you to each and every one of you. Thank you for loving me, and supporting me, for crying with me, and laughing with me. Thank you for the random dance parties, and late night conversations. Thank you for being yourselves.

I will never understand why hall living is considered to be such a dread, because it is honestly such a blessing. I will never forget move in day, moving in with a bunch of strangers, and leaving as so much more than just hall mates, but really y’all became family. There were many times during the school year where I just couldn't help but thank the Lord for putting each of you in my life.

All of our unique strengths and personalities shined in the friendships we formed. I cannot help but smile at the random hall homework parties, and the random acts of love we have shown each other throughout the year. I do not feel anything but an overwhelming amount of support and love for my hall galpals. I do not think I could have asked for a better group of girls to have lived with this year at High Point University. We accepted each other, we loved each other, we had a blast with each other and now we will miss each other.




And as we branch off into our separate ways I just want to say two things:

To our amazing, and kind RA-- thank you. Thank you for taking on such a crazy group. Thank you for loving us, thank you for supporting us, and thank you for pushing us to reach our goals. I know it isn't always easy, especially when you have a group like us, but we are really thankful to have you in our lives, and wouldn't want it any other way. We love you, and thank you for loving us.

To my North third floor girls (and Yadkin), next year it will be so different not being able to knock on everyone’s door to celebrate the victories or cry about the not so great parts of college, but that doesn't mean I won’t be continuing to support you guys. I will be cheering for each and every one of you. Whether that means being 500 miles away, or right down the street. I hope you guys play to your strengths. I know each of you bring such unique qualities into this world, and I cannot wait and see how each of you are going to shine. I love you all, and the memories we have shared will forever hold a place in my heart.

So, cheers to my North third floor GalPals (and Yadkin). Thank you for being a crazy fun bunch. Thank you for the memories. Thank you for making my first year living on campus so memorable. I love you all!

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.

You heard it here first: birthdays in college are some of the best days of your four years. For one day annually, you get to forget about your identity as a stressed, broke, and overworked student, and take the time to celebrate. You can throw your responsibilities for a day, use your one skip in that class you hate, receive kind cards and gifts from loved ones and just enjoy yourself.
