We have slept ~7 feet away from each other for the past year and a half. I see you every day, even days when I don't want to see anyone. You bring me pain relievers when my hangover prevents me from leaving bed and you remind me to bring my house key when I leave the house. Now, you're going abroad and I am very unsure how to live without you. Remember when we had the minor fire and I stood there in fear while you took care of it? Imagine that scenario without you there. Spoiler alert: the apartment burns down.
There are so many things I'm going to miss about you. I don't know anyone else who can wake up at 5 AM, workout, and then look super cute for the rest of the day. Without your example, I will probably start sleeping in until 11 and never go to the gym again. Speaking of motivation, sometimes I go to class even when I want to skip because I know that you never skip class. Who knows what will happen when you're gone?
I'm going to miss tagging you in Facebook memes even though you're five feet away from me.
I still don't understand how to open our mailbox. Can you please teach me so I don't go three months without paying the internet bill? I also don't know how to cut pineapple but it's my favorite fruit. I'm going to need a video tutorial on this.
Without our nightly debriefs, I'm going to need you to write down everything you do every day. Also, because your friends won't be stopping by, I'll need updates on their lives too. Don't worry, I will send you weekly updates of the people we like/ don't like so you know which Instagram posts are safe to comment on.
I'm so used to warning you when something gross happens on Grey's Anatomy and now I'm going to be yelling "blood scene!" to an empty apartment.
Omg, am I going to have to start peeing with the door closed? Who is going to be there to ask me when my exams are? How else am I supposed to remember when my exams are?????
Now that I've written all of this down, I realized that I am very needy. You are going to have the time of your life abroad and I guess will be busy learning how to be an adult. Please don't love Europe too much because I am not going to survive more than 12 weeks without you!!

P.S. Please remember that "The Lizzie Maguire Movie" is fiction!!! If a strange man approaches you: DO. NOT. GET. ON. THE. VESPA.
