To my long distance best friend,
It broke my heart when we reached senior year and we were applying to completely different schools on different coasts. You were the friend that I could drive to your house at ten at night to go get ice cream or call at eleven at night crying because I was stressed. You were the friend that wouldn't judge me when I belted Taylor Swift in the car or when I failed that super easy test. That moment when I realized that we would be over 900 miles away from each other crushed me. However, you stayed my best friend and I want to thank you for everything that you do.
Thank you for answering my Facetime calls at 1 in the morning. I know you have hundreds of things to do at 1 in the morning... like sleep, but thank you for always answering my calls. You are a rock star for answering me when I couldn't figure out how to do my own laundry or what outfit I should wear. As much as it annoyed you to hear my ranting or help me with my homework, thanks for answering. Thanks for being blunt. Everyone is afraid to be completely honest, but somebody has to be that person. Being my best friend, I thank you for telling me that the shirt I was obsessed with wasn't my color or that I should stay in for a weekend.
Without that completely honest person in your life, how would you survive? I know that I'm not always right, and it's good for someone to tell you when you are wrong so you don't keep making the same old mistakes. I'm glad that even though we are in two separate time zones we can still watch the same shows and spend countless hours gossiping about what happened and what t.v. character we are most like. Thank you for not posting all those embarrassing selfies I took on your phone and for not judging me for wearing extremely oversized clothing.
Lastly, thank you for all the unconditional love and support that you give me. I know that I make decisions that you aren't hundred percent okay with, but thank you for all the support that you give me and for always being there if the plan doesn't work. Knowing I have your support is all that I need to keep going when the decision is a tough one.
We shared everything from prom court, late night singing moments in the car, cramming for anatomy tests to countless baseball games. I know that you and I both have made amazing new friends, but I know that we will always be best friends. You are the Brooke to my Payton, the Blair to my Serena and the Cristina to my Meredith. It's tough going from seeing you every day to only once a semester, but that's what Skype and Facetime are for. I know that in our future endeavors life will get tough, but no matter how many miles apart we are, I know that I can forever call you my best friend.
Sincerely,
Your Forever Best Friend
