I’ve been told time and time again, that the time one spends in college very critical in many life aspects. These four years consist of attempting to establish stability within a constantly changing environment. You’re pushed to limits you didn’t know exist, you’re exposed to experiences whether you like it or not, you suffer from multiple episodes of heartbreak and disappointment and then finally, you’re at your all-time best.
I am now feeling this “all-time best”, and I’ve got a few people to thank for that. The friends I have made in the past four years have undoubtedly impacted me in such a beautiful way, I could never even begin to imagine my life without them.
Thank you for being ridiculously hilarious and making me laugh so hard that I cry.
