Dear College Friends,

Isn't it hard to believe that we have been living in different states and living parallel lives? Thankfully, God realized that we all needed each other and crossed all of our paths together only a couple days into the semester. I remember when we all first met, and I never thought in a million years that you all would become such an amazing part of my life.

There was something different about all of you; it only took a few days to become close. We survived the first semester of freshman year, made stupid decisions in Wal-Mart, and of course, spent every day together, and now the second semester has a lot to live up to.

We now all have become one, I feel like all of you are my siblings. You are always there for me, for the little to the huge things.

Whether I feel my world is about to come crashing down because I tripped on the drill field., or just needing someone to go eat with me, you guys are my heroes.

We almost share emotions, when one of us has a bad day we all do, if someone gets good news, we celebrate it like it is our own. We all want the absolute best for each other and won't settle for anything less.

You guys also there to tell me what I need to hear. Either I am being over dramatic like always or that my outfit really isn’t cute. We keep each other on the right track and we make each other the best we can be. I believe in each and every one of you, and I know you guys will always have my back.

I am so thankful for that.

At the end of any day long or short, we can always come back and just rant about whatever is in our minds. We can gossip, a judgment-free zone of course, and always guaranteed laughs. No matter what kind of day I’m having the laughs always makes my day brighter.

I wish that we could forever be just a floor, dorm, or even a wall away from each other, but in just a few short years our lives will all branch out into completely different directions, sending us far apart.

There will be a time where we won’t have to make cookout runs, or study till 2 a.m. Thankfully enough the bond we all have created is only going to grow stronger. Though all of our lives will change, and we will all be settling down and actually diving into the so-called “real-world”, but just know that I am always a phone call away.

No time or distance could ever separate us.

I want you to know that I am forever thankful for everything that we have done together. I love each and every none of y’all.

Thank you for being you, and my college, and forever friends,

Me.
