To My Best Friend

Friendship is a tricky thing, but once you find the right friend make sure you hold on because it's going to be one heck of a ride.

Dear Best Friend,

As I write this to you, we are both getting ready to go off to college and start a new chapter in our lives. Seems crazy I know, it seems like at the start of our friendship we weren't even thinking about going off to college and making something of ourselves. I remember first meeting you, you leaned over your desk and asked me what I was reading then the rest is history. What became a mutual bond over books blossomed into a friendship that I never thought I would find myself in again, but somehow it happened and I would not try to change a thing about it. I found out facts about you like the fact you did volleyball with me (once again so sorry for not remembering) and you found out facts about me. You have always been there for me even if I might not have been there for you. You have watched me at me worst moments and at my best and you have supported me in mostly everything I do, you even followed me through some my stupidest moments, we always did say we would bail each other out of jail. Although its more likely you would be in jail with me and brad would have to come bail us out, but regardless of all that. There is nobody else I would just randomly pick up in the middle of the afternoon to go get a hair cut then a new pricing, jam out to Luke Bryan in the car with, or get ice cream at Johnsons with. There this so much that I have done with you that I could go on for like five pages, but I think people would get bored. So as we go off to college it's a new start for both of us, and thats okay we can't live in high school years forever, that would be brutal. I want to say I am proud of you, I am so proud of the person you have become the person you are becoming, I know as you go on you will text me at the most random times asking me "what book should i read next" or " have you read this book?" and meet new people. I am exciting for you to see what this next step holds for you and me. We are going our separate ways and that's good thing, we are going to meet so many new people and will probably grow apart which is scary I know, but just know I'm really only a train ride away (okay maybe a little more, but you get the point) and there is always FaceTime and our paths will cross again. So my best friend I am not going to say good bye to you because that means I am letting go of a friendship that we have worked at for four years. Instead I am going to say see you later because our friendship is not done and I plan on making many memories with you before our friendship is over. After all every brunette needs a blonde best friend!

Sincerely

Your Best Friend

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
