To the Best Friend I Met in College

I never really knew what it was like to have a sister. Growing up an only child I never really knew what it was like to have any kind of siblings. I looked to my parents for my advice, guidance, and overall being as a person. My freshman and sophomore years I kind of kept to myself, but my junior year was unlike the rest. At the end of my sophomore year, I was scrambling to find an apartment where I could have my own room. I always hated being put through the random housing always in fear I would get a weird roommate or girls I didn’t get along with.

                That being said, it was the last day to sign up for housing and I was still scrambling to find a room. One of my current roommates messaged me and said these girls are looking for a 4th roommate and you can have a single. Without hesitation because I was desperate for a room next year I messaged one of the girls and was instantly assigned to the room with them. I had no idea what I was in for, who they were, or really anything about them but I took the risk anyway. What did I get myself into?

                Move in day came earlier than normal this year and I was so nervous to meet these girls. Only one of them was there when I moved in and she immediately took to my personality and said, “You and our other roommate are going to get along great.” Not knowing what that meant I continued unpacking my things and rearranging my room to what I wanted it to be. The following week I met the other two roommates and boy was the first roommate not kidding when she said we would get along. For weeks we got closer and closer talking about boys and country songs and music, everything that I loved to talk about, so did she.

                Looking back now as graduation is quickly approaching and she continually removes clothing, pictures and other decorations from her room, I knew I did not only gain a lifelong friend but a sister. Living with you for the past 8 months has been nothing but hell, just kidding what an experience it was. Although you were only there for three nights a week, we always tried to make it the best. Whether it was late night runs to frozen yogurt or making cookies after practice, we always made our times fun.


                Thank you for being my best friend and always letting me vent to you with my problems. I do not know how I would have gotten by this year without you here. You drive me up the walls sometimes but I’ll never forget you. You will never get rid of me so you know because I just bought our tickets to Dierks Bentley!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Love you long time. 

Sincerely,

So The Truth Speaks
