Thank You To My Best Friend's Mom
Whisper Chaney

I want to start with thank you. I'm not thanking you for everything you have done for me, but with how you raised your daughter, my best friend. I don't know how or why she turned out the way she did, but she has been the biggest blessing in my life and everyone else she meets. Thank you for teaching her how to care endlessly and how to love forever. Thank you for teaching her how to forgive everyone and everything, because I mess up a lot. Thank you for being her mom.

I guess now I should thank you for everything you have done for me. Thank you for the ENDLESS sleepovers and now letting her live with me. Thank you for the second home and the open arms. Thank you for always giving me advice, whether I want it or not. Thank you for forgiving me as much as your daughter does. Thank you for teaching me to just let things happen. You taught me to let go and let her chase her dreams. No matter how far she goes, she will come back. In teaching me that, you taught me to chase my own dreams. You have taught me to let something go and if it comes back it is yours to keep, of not, then it was never yours. You taught me an endless amount of stuff and forever I will be thanking you.

I can't tell you how much your family has impacted me. Between the sleepovers, the funerals, the bonfires, the dates, the parties and the yard sales, you have also taught me how to care endlessly, love forever, and to forgive everyone and everything.

So really thank you. Without you, and many others, I would not be the person I am today. I love you momma B. Thank you for letting me be the daughter you never saw coming.

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.
