To My BFF Two States Away

As Coldplay says, ​See You Soon​.

To My BFF Two States Away
Taylor Ashmore

I'm not going to lie, being away from you is hard. You never really get used to being away from your best friend. It's harder to share the little things in life, like the fact that I got an A on my math quiz or the fact that I tripped going up the stairs today. Sometimes I feel dumb texting you these things, even though I used to talk to you for hours about some of the most meaningless things.

Whenever I hesitate to send you a text saying "omg you won't believe what just happened," I remember that I love to hear everything going on in your life. I love hearing the fact that you saw the random guy we met at our first party or that you finally finished Shameless (it was about time). Every single text from you, makes me smile.


(even this one)

Even though we're two states away, we're still the same friends we were a year ago, we just have to work a little harder for it. Being apart from each other has shown me just how important our friendship is. Even though we live 362 miles away from each other, we still manage to "see" each other every day, whether it be through a snapchat, text, or even a meme on instagram.

Some friendships are worth the distance and ours definitely makes that list. Even though we only get to see each other a few times a year, it makes those days just a little more special. Sometimes it feels like we're catching up on the past few months in a matter of hours, but after that it feels like old times, where we would sit and watch Sex and the City together for hours. It's worth the wait to see you if it means sitting around, doing nothing except talking.

I will always be there for you, even if I'm not physically there. I'm always a phone call away. Being away from each other definitely changes some things, but it doesn't change the fact that you are without a doubt one of my best friends. And, even though it goes without saying, I miss you.

As Coldplay says, See You Soon.

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.
