Saying Goodbye To My Friends As I Transfer Schools
Sophia Goetz

To my college friends who I am leaving behind,

I know it is hard to think that in less than two weeks, we will no longer be going to the same school. We will be living 2,000 miles apart, rather than 2 miles. As I get closer to leaving for my new school, I become more and more nostalgic for the time I spent in Minnesota, especially my time with you guys. When I was considering transferring, the thought of you guys was keeping me from leaving. You were the one thing that helped me survive freshman year of college. Now, I have to restart at a new school, but I know that I will always have you guys, even if you are five states and two time zones away from me. You were my first friends I made after leaving a high school where everyone knew each other since kindergarten. You made it easier to see life in a bigger picture with a more positive light. You helped me survive some of the toughest experiences I had faced, and I did the same for you. I had never been as close of friends with some one as I was with you guys. I will always remember camping out in the coffee shop in Dinkytown, trying to push through assignments we forgotten over the weekend. And deciding to sleep on the floor of our dorm every night for the second semester because we wanted to watch movies together before going to bed. And walking across the bridge late at night because you lived on West Bank and I lived on East Bank. Right now I wish I could just pack you up and bring you with me but, I’m pretty sure they don’t allow people in carry-on bags. Just know that this is not a goodbye, I will see you soon. I cannot thank you enough for being some of the most important people in my life and showing me how to be the best version of myself. I grew through being friends with you and I will think of you every day.

Much love for you

Sophie

(P.S. Please don’t get annoyed by how often I will FaceTime you)

Why Theater Kids Are the Greatest People Ever

Supportive and spontaneous human beings are the best.

Theater Kids

Throughout school, the theater department has always been my go-to place with go-to people when I need advice, a dance party, or just someone to listen to me vent.

You never know what's going to happen when you're dealing with theatre or what kind of characters you'll encounter. We have too much fun doing anything! One time in my senior year acting class, we spent an entire class period watching Bob's Burgers, and it was the greatest class period ever.

Thank You on wooden blocks

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.
