Here's something for each of you, and I'm doing this instead of packing.. so I hope it's well received.. :)
*These are in no particular order, but I am putting Sammy last, for obvious reasons. Teehee.
-Nikita Desai:
The first impression I have of you was when I saw you at my very first volleyball practice. You left your shoes at home so Rosenow wouldn't let you go into the weight room. These past three years, you have been the absolute best, in every possible way. From college rejections (many of them), to just bumming around in your basement watching TiVoed shows, you've been my go-to, and I've never once heard a complaint from it all. I remember the day I was deferred from Oxford. I was so shattered and I didn't know who else to call but you. When I couldn't find comfort from my parents, you were in my driveway with a caramel macchiato and coffee cake( my favy :), offering all the support anyone could ever need. I won't ever forget how difficult that day was and how you were there to carry me through it. I can't wait till you become a pharmacist.
-Ashton Crain:
Tinky, South Carolina is miles away and I do think about you each and every day and how hard it must be to be so far from home. I miss your voice and how willing you are to sing every single song I play for you on your guitar, even if it is Fergie. I remember the first time I was at your house. We did some stranger stunting shit in your play house and I do blame you for stunting my growth. I was dropped so many times, you don't even know. Then LC told us to not do it anymore, but of course we go into your room and try it again..Then I get dropped again and LC rushes upstairs to make sure I'm still alive..I miss watching seasons of Laguna Beach and Robsessed. (I hope no one read that part). I know you're in the middle of rush right now and having the time of your life. Don't think back because your memories of us will always be there. Live it up at USC and don't worry about the rest. I'm excited to share you with everyone up there. P.S. tubby custard.
-Mackenzie Morrow:
Watching you leave was the worst because after that, I knew I'd be the only one left. I miss our dates, and watching you burst into tears at the end of paranormal activity. I will never forget your dad finding out the title of our ap lit powerpoint "nappin on dem d's". It was humiliating, but probably the best laugh I've ever had. I remember when I first met you during lunch. We were both friends with Sarah Perry and we sat at the same table. Your mom always packed you the best lunch. The little random things we did, like tutoring hispanic children after school, or going to that church, also to play with hispanic children, are the memories I won't ever forget. We did a bunch of random things together, and I won't ever find someone to take your place. I know you'll embrace Wake with all that you can, and I can't wait to hear about all of your adventures.
-Maria Pannier:
Where to start with you.. I can and can't believe your at app state(: I'm so glad you ended up exactly where you wanted to be. I want you to be happy for the both of us, since I can't say the same.. You're the only person that I cannot pinpoint our exact meeting date, time, and place. You were all of the sudden just there. It's also difficult to mark my fondest memory of us because they're all pretty weird in my opinion. Through good, bad, and ugly, you we're there through it all, so it'd be impossible pick because any one of them could be my favorite. Thanks for always holding my hair. I don't think anyone at gsu would be willing to step up to take your place next year. Oh, and thanks for always making the shittiest mixed drinks. That, I won't miss at all. I know your nervous because app state came abruptly, but that's how you are anyways, right? You never sweat the small stuff, not to say that college fits in that category, but I know you'll be just fine. See you at Thanksgiving -Sabway
-Sammy Slappey:
Last, like I promised. I hate that we decided to hang out every single day only weeks before you left. I put out an ad for a chatroulette partner, but I have yet to receive any applications. I remember the first day I met you. We sat at the same table with Sarah Perry (same day as when I met Mackenzie). I didn't know what to think because we spoke very few words (acceptable because we were in our awkward freshmen phase). Your ability to say the most mind boggling and random shit is quite admirable, and on that trait alone, I know you will be just fine in college. Oh, and as I'm typing this, I'm also fb chatting with one of the guy from spring break. It's no coincidence. Back on track. I miss you terribly, but not really since I'll be seeing you today. Do great things; be great things. Hillary.
So that's it. This is closure for me and I hope you don't mind that it's been done on a blog. I need to pack before my parents wake up to empty bags so this is just a temporary goodbye :'). Minks to the World.
