To My Friends,

I honestly don't know where to start. I guess by just saying thank you so much for being there for me when I needed you the most, and I promise to do the same for you.

You have seen me at my best, and seen me at my worst, and you have continued to stand by my side, laugh at my extremely corny jokes, and be one of the greatest friends I've ever had.

Through the laughs, the fights, the good times and the bad, everything works out in the end for the best. I know in my heart, I can accomplish anything with you by my side.

In high school, I learned one of the most heartbreaking and bittersweet lessons. I learned who cared, and who didn't, and exactly who my true friends where. Those friends who stayed, helped me get through one of the most difficult times of my life and I'm so thankful to those individuals (You know who you are; thank you so much)

Thank you for fighting for me whenever I was down, or just ready to give up on myself. You kept pushing me to get back up, and telling me to continue fighting and to never give up.

And, thank you for keeping me strong; there were moments where I felt so unavoidably weak, and I didn't want to continue. But, you helped me get back up on my feet and held my hand and got me through it.

There were so many wonderful memories in high school that I will never forget, such as band trips, variety shows, graduation, birthdays, Prom, lunch, football games, Homecoming, Girl's nights, and more. They were some of the best parts of high school, and I'm so thankful to have the most wonderful friends by my side.

When I left for college, I was terrified out of my mind; my biggest fears beside college in general was that my past would repeat itself, and the nightmare I was living through the past two months would keep repeating itself.

But, I was wrong. When I arrived at Wesley College, I was immediately welcomed with open arms, and quickly made so many new friends. College has been unbelievably good for me. Not only has it been a fresh, new beginning for me, but I've made so many wonderful, new friends, joined band, joined Odyssey, and have made so many close friendships with some of the most amazing people I have ever met.

I'm Extremely thankful for the wonderful, down to earth, weird friends I've made so far. they have made college wonderful so far, and im so lucky to have them all in my life.

That also goes for my old friends as well; thank you to my old and new friends who have supported me, loved me, and have been there for me when I needed them the most.

So, to my friends, thank you for being there for me, and I promise to always be there for you. I love all of you, with all of my heart.

Love, Haylee
