A Girl's Best Friend

Sooo today's blog isn't really about fitness or nutrition, but I guess you could say it's about happiness and realizing how important best friends are in your life. Sammy, my roommate for the past two years and best friend at rutgers is going to be moving to Paris for her junior year, which is amazing and I am so excited for her but I would much rather set the entire country of France on fire or release some sort of deadly plague on them so she can't go. What's even more amazing is that she is not just doing a study abroad program through Rutgers... no, she applied to a French university and is literally transferring out of rutgers and will have to apply to transfer back into rutgers for her senior year... which, if you knew Sammy, is completely something she would do. She's from cali and I'm from virginia and we both ended up going to school in new jersey, and becoming random roommates our freshman year. Random roommate situations are very tricky and you never know how it's going to end up... I got very lucky because sammy ended up being my best friend and we roomed together another year. I can't think of a better friend to have than sammy. She has helped me through some really hard times dealing with my dad's cancer, took care of me when I had swine flu, yelled at me when I tried to go to the gym whenever when I was hurt or sick, we've stayed up late complaining about our boyfriends (and then talked about how much we love them the next day), helped each other come up with ultimate methods of procrastination during finals, threw me the only surprise birthday party I have ever had, we've stayed up late just being hyper and listening to christmas songs for hours, and we have told each other things that we would never tell anyone else. I really don't know what I am going to do without this girl next year. Someone better come up with a teleportation device or I better win the lottery so I can get my own private jet, because experiencing Sammy withdrawals is going to be ugly. So here's to you Sammy, my strong, beautiful best friend. I love you and I know we really will be best friends for the rest of our lives no matter where we are in the world.
