Most of us know the story of the adorable chubby bear who likes honey far too much and always seems to find himself in some sort of trouble. Whether you grew up reading the book or watching the animated movie, Winnie-the-Pooh carries a sense of nostalgia with him wherever he goes. But childhood yearnings aside, what you may have not realized is that "silly old bear" and his friends possess some of the simplest, yet most heart-warming pieces of knowledge you'll hear all week.

1. “People say nothing is impossible, but I do nothing every day."



2. " One advantage of being disorderly is that one is constantly making exciting discoveries."



3. “It is more fun to talk with someone who doesn't use long, difficult words, but rather short, easy words like, 'What about lunch?'”



4. “As soon as I saw you, I knew an adventure was going to happen.”



5. “I think we dream so we don’t have to be apart for so long. If we’re in each other’s dreams, we can be together all the time.”



6.“You can't stay in your corner of the Forest waiting for others to come to you. You have to go to them sometimes.”



7. "Promise me you’ll always remember: you’re braver than you believe, stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think."



8. "The things that make me different are the things that make me."



9. “Rivers know this: there is no hurry. We shall get there some day.”



10. "Some people care too much. I think it's called love."


11. “So perhaps the best thing to do is to stop writing introductions and get on with the book.”

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

Happy Birthday Cake

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.
