I walked into that mint colored room wreaking of bleach and wax- turned to my mom and said, "I'm home." And now, leaving it is like closing a chapter of a book i enjoyed way too much for my own good. This past year has been nothing short of amazing. A year ago, if you asked me what my freshman year was going to be like- i wouldn't have been able to even imagine half the things i did this year. So here are my shout outs to my girls, my bestfriends, my sisters...i love you all.
Swift- When I first met you I was sure we weren't going to get along. I thought you were too cool for me- ehm which does still hold true if i do say so myself =P. Thank you so much for teaching me to let go. I went from this uptight, stick up her butt overly ambitious girl to someone who actually takes time to smell the flowers and enjoy life. So what if I wasted an entire afternoon talking lazing around on a bed talking about life and counting tiles? So what if I pulled an all nighter to watch 3 movies in a row? These are the things I'm going to remember about my freshman year. Not how many times I successfully finished a homework assignment, but how many times I sat back and thought- dang..did I really just do that? I love you <3
Heat- thanks for teaching me about passion. thank you for teaching me to stand up for myself. Up until I met you, I didn't think it was important to assert my ideas and stand up for what I believed in. If someone argued with me -I'd let them win. I just never found it important to let my opinions be known. Thank you for giving me the confidence I needed in order to establish myself. you make me giggle, make the worst days better. I love your smile, your stupid noises and most of all your heart. You're a good person when it comes down to it- and I couldn't think of anyone else I'd want to share these next three years with.
Dirt- Hi Twin! Dirt, I think we were meant to be together. I think God put us together. We're so alike, and I can relate to you on so many different levels. Thanks for listening to me and giving me advice. Thanks for being my bandaid when things hurt. We've had some pretty crazy times- things I will never forget. Um, remember the time we took a blue bus to the library only to cancel the meeting? We should start a "I hate (insert EAS professors name here)" club. I love you so much and I can't wait for all the fun adventures we're going to have. one day we're going to be rich together and it's going to be awesome. <3
there's a huge puddle on my floor now, where the fridge used to be. There's dirt where I had a shelf full of food. There's a chipped wall where I had a white board full of messages and to do lists. You know what, who cares. The material stuff may be gone but all the memories we had in that room will never cease to exist. I hope some lucky girl gets that room next year and has as much fun as we did. girls, I love you so much and I'm so pumped for our AWESOME APARTMENT next year. get ready. it's going to be a roller coaster..i promise :)
