Thank You To My Friends As I Move Away

I am starting to lose a piece of me that will never be whole again.

As my days start to dwindle away with you guys, I am starting to think of reality. I will no longer pass you guys in the hallway. I will never be able to run to the bathroom and have a mental breakdown without you guys again. Most importantly, I won't have you guys by my side anymore.

It feels so unreal now. I used to say, "I couldn't wait to move and get out of this school". But now that it is days away, the reality is finally setting in.

I just wanted to say thank you. Thank you for showing me unconditional friendship, no matter how rocky it got. I walked into freshman year with all of you, and now I won't be walking out to graduate with you.

When I think of how life will be different without you guys, it sends a different type of pain I have never felt before.

Yes, I've moved plenty of times and left many people. But this is different; I've actually grown attached to you guys. I learned who I was because of you all.

I never knew that saying one word would hurt.

Thank you for never giving up on me, and being the first ones ready to kill someone for me.

Our friendships have taken me on some sort of journey, which will never end. Even though I am going away, we will never stop being friends.

Time will pass, and new friends will stumble upon us. It will never be the same seeing someone else fill my shoes, nor will it be the same finding people to fill your shoes.

We joke now, saying it won't bother us. But I know that deep down, I will be losing a piece of me I never want to leave.

I hope you all find the happiness and love you deserve. You have all taught me self-love and to never settle for less.

I am forever grateful to have friends like you guys.

This isn't a "goodbye", it's an "I'll see you later".

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.
