To The Friend I Didn't Expect To Find

I didn’t know I needed you in my life.

To The Friend I Didn't Expect To Find

To the friend I didn’t expect to find,

I didn’t know I needed you. I didn’t know the role you would play, the endless laughs, and the memories that we would make that will last me a lifetime.

I didn’t really want any more friends. I had my little group of people I trusted, and I was happy with them.

Then you came.

You came into my world, and overnight, I knew you would never leave. Within weeks, we were inseparable. You’re my first text when I’m happy and my first when things go wrong.

We don’t talk all day, every single day, and that’s okay. We don’t have to. It seems like you know when I need a pick me up text or an invitation to dinner, and I can never thank you enough for what you do.

You always seem to know just when I need a break from all the stress and work of college. You are as much a part of my family as anyone in it. My family loves you for you and for all that you do and mean to me.

You’ll probably never know how much you truly mean to me because it’s hard to put into words what it’s like at 20 years old to find out you had a best friend waiting to walk into your life for so long, knowing it was perfectly timed by God for us to find each other when we did.

I love you, and I’m more thankful for you than words can ever describe. You’re my best friend, my go-to, and the person who understands me no matter what.

You’re the best, Mo.

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.
