Dear Mary Kate

Tonight, I started saying goodbye to some of my very best friends in the entire world. So I’m feeling emotionally compromised and therefore inspired to be sad and mushy and cheesy.

Sorry.

Not really.

Dear Mary Kate Grant,

I hate that you went to college without me. I hate that you went before me and now I can’t just walk or drive to your house in the middle of the night just because I want to talk to you. I hate that I’m going to live all the way across the world from you.

I hope somebody in New Zealand is as excited about Taylor Swift’s new album. Or someone else knows all the words to any High School Musical song. I hope that somebody else laughs at me when I’m completely ridiculous. I hope that someone else will make the most ridiculous face accompanied by the most…er…unusual animal noises just to make me laugh in return.

But at the same time, I pray that nobody else does any of that. Because it’s gonna remind me that you are still in Nashville, TN, going to Lipscomb University with every other college student that has his or her life figured out.

So, basically, what I’m saying is, I’m gonna miss you.

A ton.

I already miss you.

And I’m super jealous of all the friends you’re gonna make while I’m away that you’re gonna love more than me for all eternity.

We’re growing up and doing crazy things. And I’m so excited for it, so ready for it all to happen! And we’re gonna be pen pals (for realz) and Skype buddies and forever friends! It’s just…gonna be quite strange not seeing you for six months.

Yeah, I’m gonna miss you, snuggle bud.

Be good in college. You’re awesome at French – you’re gonna blow all those juniors out of the water! And do your homework. Don’t swing three times on the ring swing thing. And remember that I am only letter/Skype call/a couple of days and a plane flight away.

I love you bunches.
