Day Eight: Post About Your Best Friend

Uh... I have a lot of best friends. Most I hang out a lot with. Others, I hardly do. Mostly because they're busy, or I am. Or our schedules are mixed. This year, I don't have lunch with most of my friend group, as well as classes. I only have a few classes with one friend. And, that's Allie. I did however branch out this year. I met a lot of new people and made friends who I never dared to talk to. Mostly because I thought they were too "popular" or were not the type of people I would hang out with. So, I guess it was good that I didn't see my best friends as much. Here are my BEST of best friends. If you're not on this list, don't feel sad, It might be because we don't hang out as much, or because were not as close as I am to others.

Jaydeen: Thank you so much for everything you do/ have done for me. I didn't realize how much we have gone through until a few months ago. We have had our fights and knit-picks, but we pushed through it and forgave each other. Even though sometimes, you shouldn't have forgiven me. I never meant t o hurt you, and never realized how much pain you were experiencing until you told me how broken you really were and how you reached out for help. When you told me the struggles you were going through, my hear stopped. Mostly because I get sensitive to suicide or self harm. And knowing that my best friend, the goofball who I loved and adored just hated life that much. And believed everything she thought about herself, hurt me. Knowing that he person I've known for three years could fall down that far in life, scared me. I am so glad that you're doing better, and can't wait for the years to come. Where we forget about everything and just live in the moment. Just have fun, and laugh, and cherish everything that god has given us. Jay, you are so talented and an outstanding young lady. You are so amazing in you're artwork, and you're gift to always light other up. To make them smile and forget about their own hard problems. I love you Jay. Never forget how amazing you truly are. -Emma 

Star: I am so grateful to have you as a friend. You always find a way to brighten my mood and lift my spirits up. You have made me smile when all I wanted to do was cry. You have helped me through such hard times. Thank you for that. Thank you for always being by my side when I needed someone to hug, or someone to talk to. I know that you have you're own problems, too. And that's you're business. I don't want to make you feel pressured or anything. I just want to say, if you ever need someone to talk to, I'm always here for you. If you ever need help on a assignment, you can always message me. I know we haven't talked as long as I would want to, but I cherish every moment we spend together. Thank you for being my star in the dark. -Emma

Allie: You have always been my goofball and silly cat to hang out with. You have always been my number one supporter. You always believed in me. Even today when I was literally going to cry. When Ms.Skinner called my name to present my slam poem, my heart beat rushed. My breathes grew faster, and my  hands went numb. I really needed someone in the class to hold my hand when I was up there, telling me everything would be OK. I didn't want to seem like a baby, or like I was anything less but confident. However, after, you showed your appreciation and gave me a HUGE hug that gave me relief. No matter how bad of a day you have, you always think of others before yourself. I love this about you. Even if the worst thing happened to you, you would still help someone who's having a hard time with something. Or someone who is having a hard day. You would do anything to make them smile. So, thank you for being my best supporter emotionally. -Emma 

Alex: I have to admit, you are my first gay best friend. Yes, my other friends are either lesbian, or bisexual, or pansexual, but I never have been so close to a guy to where he is my bestfriend, and he's gay. And, that's pretty cool. You have helped me in my writing more ways than I can describe. Like showing me tips and tricks, and giving me advice on things you've done in the past. Thank you for being a HUGE supporter on my sexuality, and mental health. -Emma

Thank you everyone who was not on this list who reads this. You mean so much to me, and I could never replace our friendship for anything in life. I wish you all the best. <3
