To The Best Friend That I Never Expected To Find

Thank you for being the Chinese food loving, shit talking, sleepy best friend I've always dreamed of finding.

To The Best Friend That I Never Expected To Find
Courtney Sutton

Dear best friend,

Thank you for all that you do. I honestly couldn't have made it this far in life without you.

We have never been that normal set of best friends. We never dressed up in cliché Halloween costumes. We never had slumber parties to watch the newest chick flick. But what we have is special.

It's so special that we lost track of time. When we were asked how long we were friends, "Oh my god it's been since seventh grade!" was our response. We were seniors. We've had near death experiences, mainly because of my driving. We've woken up the next morning thinking "What the hell happened?" as your dad asked you why your wallet was lying on the sidewalk.

We spent senior year mainly in the art room, having first period coffee dates, and finding every excuse to not go to second period.

You are my person. My person to: share memes with, fangirl over Brendon Urie, go on late night food runs, porch sit with (even if it's cold outside), drunkenly sing Carrie Underwood with (because, obviously, you had to be drunk to be listening to country music), and endlessly vent with about everything in life.

We are never too far away to share our friendship and I love it. I compare it to my friendships with all of the new people that I meet at school and I realize that none could compare to the friendship we have. I've watched you repress emotions and never cry, while I wondered how you did it because I had already cried six times that day and it was only second period.

You complete me. You have seen and heard the worst parts of me but still accept me for the person I am. Thank you for being the Chinese food loving, shit talking, sleepy best friend I've always dreamed of finding.

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.
