All My Friends Graduated

This past weekend my last two best friends graduated from college. So that means we’re all college graduates!

This time last year we were freaking out because about half or our group graduated and was moving away while the rest of us had to finish our degrees. Another year flew by and now we’re all officially done and will be leaving this place.

Our college town is what brought us together. As bright eyed 18 year old girls we all came from different towns across the state. My random freshman roommate has ended up being not only my sorority sister, but best friend. The rest of us came together through being chosen to be pledge class sisters in Zeta Tau Alpha. We spent 4 years full of ups and downs together. And this past year we survived the long distance friends thing.

I have so many words and emotions that I could put into this post, but I just wanted to document how incredibly blessed I am with my college sorority sisters who have become my lifelong best friends.

We have seen each other at our highs and our lows. We know each others pasts. We know the dark times and we know the happy times. We know the heartbreaks and the triumphs. We’ve laughed until our stomachs hurt and we’ve cried ugly tears to each other. We all have different dreams. Unique personalities. And somehow we adore each other.

My friends are beautiful, intelligent, driven women. As some of us go off to other states for grad school and some of us stay to work, I have to say I am so incredibly proud of the women I call my best friends.

As we say a bittersweet goodbye to our college town, the town the brought us together and grew us into adults, I anticipate the new adventures before us and the new places we will reunite in.

Congrats to all 2015 college graduates! Be proud of all your hard work and the degree you now have!
