A Letter To My Best Friend On Her Last Day Of College
Emily Yaritz

Allison,

It's hard to believe that you are done with college! Getting to do college with my best friend was better than I could have ever imagined.

From the moment I met you I knew you were someone I wanted to be close with. The way you carry yourself is incredible and you really do have the biggest heart.

I want you to know how unbelievably proud I am of you. Your hard work and dedication never cease to amaze me. I'll never forget going to your scholarship awards ceremony; I couldn't help but smile and shake my head. You make it look so effortless. Everyone knows how intelligent you are, but you never brag about it which is something I admire greatly. I think what was special about us was that there was always friendly competition, but at the end of the day, we both wanted each other to succeed just as bad as ourselves.

I know you're a little anxious about what the future holds but I guarantee you will be the best at whatever you choose to do. Any company would be lucky to have you. You work so hard for everything you do and I know someone will appreciate that as much as I do.

I'm not sure what I am going to do next semester without you. It's a bittersweet feeling. I am so happy for you, but also heartbroken that I have to sit through a class without you. Who am I supposed to make my sarcastic comments to? But don't worry, I'll keep Walker on his toes.

Best of luck in this next chapter. I know you'll do great things.

P.S I still want that tissue box you told me about.

Love,

Your best friend

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?
