As someone who studies abroad and comes back to their home country only once a year in summer, maintaining long-distance friendships are hard. With my summer break ending and me leaving to study abroad next week, I have been reminiscing a whole lot on the memories I created this summer with my best friend.
1) Being 8 am gym buddies and actually ending up going at 8 pm
2) Talking one year's worth of stories
3) Doing Pinterest inspired photoshoots
4) Spending every single day of summer together
5) Eating chicken biryani all day, every day
6) Feeding homecooked meals to each other
7) Getting nostalgic about school days
8) Shopping until we can't feel our legs
9) Going on fancy dinner dates
10) Talking nonstop at sleepovers until our throats dry
11) Helping each other out through boy drama (and all other dramas!)
12) Being each other's cheerleaders
13) Hyping each other up as we try new clothes in trial rooms
14) Being each other's personal stylists (mostly you!)
15) Motivating each other during low days
16) Eating at every food joint in the city
17) Making travel plans for when we become billionaires
18) Breaking beauty standards together with our clothes and haircuts
19) Recommending web series to each other and watching it together
20) Stalking people on Instagram together
21) Discussing everything from politics to our favorite shade of nail polish
22) Teaming up with each other's moms to make fun of each other
You are one of the reasons why I look forward to coming back home during summers. I can't believe that this summer has already come to an end and I am starting to pack my bags. Although we meet only for a little while in the whole year, our friendship only keeps growing stronger. I cannot imagine a summer break without you.
Thank you for all the memories. Can't wait until summer 2020 to make more memories with you!
