Freshman Year

Summer before Freshman year, I had crazy cold feet about leaving home. I was having extreme anxiety for no reason and I second-guessed going to school.

Although I was put on medicine to calm me down, I think it was the environment at Lasell that changed me so much for the better.

Once I got to school, it was like everything I had ever worried or stressed about had vanished. I immediately felt right at home, and I got along great with everyone.

The year since then has completely flown by. I didn't even know it was possible to be as happy as I have been this year. I have met the most incredible people and had the time of my life.

I never thought I would have a group of friends that I am as close and comfortable with as I am with mine. My whole floor was like a huge family all year, and I felt like I had such a great support group no matter what I went through.

Never did I think college would bring me to find my true group friends. I am so blessed that I chose Lasell, and I cannot wait to make a million more incredible memories with the best people I know. Thank you guys so much for the best year I could have possibly asked for. You all have impacted my life like crazy, and you have no idea how much better I have been since I've met you.

Chloe, Gab, and Lex - You girls are the best friends I've always wanted. I have never fit in with a group of girls the way I do with you three. We all have the exact same humor and do the same ridiculous things. There really isn't a time when we aren't hysterically laughing together. I feel like each one of us brings something different to the 4 of us. We give each other the greatest advice, and when I'm upset about something, the first thing I want to do is see you guys. I've never felt so lucky to have such great friends. I hope you guys know that I would do absolutely anything for you all, and I am so grateful for all of you. Thank you so much. You have helped me in ways that you will never understand. A group of friends this great means a lot to a girl like me. I can't wait to spend the next 3 years with you. I love you.

Mark - I can't believe Freshman year of college has brought me to find the love of my life. I imagined going crazy and making a million memories, but never did I imagine getting into a relationship. Especially one that is as incredible as this one. I've never in my life felt so cared about. We really do take care of one another and balance each other out perfectly. I'm the crazy motivated perfectionist, and you are easy-going, care-free, and relaxed. You calm me down when I need it (which is always), and I motivate you when you need it (also always). I have never felt more blessed in my entire life. You really do fix me, and I appreciate you more than you know. You are my best friend in the world, and I am constantly having a blast when I'm with you. You are the sweetest, most caring person in my life, and I could not ask to be treated any better. Thanks for putting up with me, and loving me more than I ever knew someone could. I fall more and more in love with you every day, and I can't wait to see where time takes us. I love you.
