f is for friends

These photos have absolutely nothing to do with what I'm about to talk about but here was my ootd from the other day. I've been on the hunt for a bomber jacket for a while now, and I finally came across one that I liked and it's actually from the H&M little boy's section. There was a mirror with measurements and according to my height I am an 11-12 year old child (LOL short people problems) but I wanted my bomber to be a little bigger so I opted for the 13-14 year old size. 

Anyways, what I wanted to blog about is actually about friendships, mine in particular. The day these photos were taken, I got to spend one-on-one time with my best friend, Wendy. We've been friends since 8th grade, so it's been a little more than 8 years. We used to live right around the corner from each other so we spent A LOT of time together back in high school. However, with me going to school and interning, and her being a pharmacy student, intern and moving 30 minutes away creates a barrier between us, physically. We don't get to see each other as often but when we do, we always have a blast. We've always had that type of friendship where we don't have to talk every single day, but when we do it's like nothing has changed. You don't have to talk to a friend every day but it's important to reach out here and there to catch up and ask how they're doing. Friendships don't work if they're just one-sided, effort has to be put in to them just like in a relationship. I've come across people with no friends, no true friends, and it's sad because I can see the reason why that is.

Wendy and I had so much fun with this photo shoot, we had so much fun eating and talking, and we even had fun walking in the rain with a cheap $5 umbrella we had to buy from Canal Street. I love the fact that I can be my complete self around her and we can make the most mundane things funny when we're together.

I feel so blessed to have such a genuine, caring person in my life, super blessed that I can call her my best friend. I hope that all of you have someone you can truly call your best friend, because sometimes all you really need is that one person to turn to. #bffappreciationpost
