I just had the best time and laughed more than I have in several months. And
what did I spend the last several hours doing? Watching Vine videos with my best
friend, Madi. That's what I absolutely love about our friendship. We can be
doing absolutely nothing, but as long as we're together, we are content.
I can't describe how much I needed this time with her. She has been in
Florida all summer, and I went 10 weeks without seeing her! 10!! The longest
we've ever gone without seeing each other before this was 2 or 3 weeks.
And I can say, I sorely missed my best friend and our time together. Hanging out
with Madi is the best stress relief for me, and I can tell when I don't spend
time with her for a while. When we are together, we laugh until we can't
breathe. We say whatever pops into our heads, no matter how random or
inappropriate, and we don't judge each other for whatever comes out of our
mouths. Especially since after a certain time of night, we both get extremely
delirious and crazy.
But that's what I love about my best friend. I can
just kick back and relax and not worry about what she thinks. Because we are
completely ourselves around each other. And we are so much alike. We have the
same sense of humor. We think the same way. And I cherish these crazy times with
her so much and can't describe how much I'll miss them when we move to opposite
ends of the state later this month.
But I am reassured by the fact that
even while she was gone, we stayed extremely close, and now that she's back,
it's like she never left. And that's what true friendship is all about- being
apart and when you get back together, nothing has changed. So I plan to enjoy
the next several weeks with Madi because I know that no matter where life takes
us, we will always be best friends.
