31 Reasons I Have Trust Issues

Trust is a fragile thing. I have been betrayed many times in my 19 years of life and here are the top 31 reasons I have trust issues

  1. Sometimes I’ll hear my phone vibrate, but when I look down there are no notifications.
  2. Biting into a chocolate chip cookie then realizing it’s oatmeal raisin
  3. Opening a bag of chips and finding it’s half air
  4. My family deliberately eats the food I hide from them
  5. My boyfriend told me soda was bad for me
  6. Apparently, chicken nuggets aren’t healthy either?
  7. When autocorrect fails me and changes a swear word to “ducking”
  8. People who use all the toilet paper and DON’T REPLENISH THE ROLL
  9. It’s 2017 and Chickfila still doesn’t deliver. Suspicious.
  10. People told me if I ate raw cookie dough I’d get salmonella. 19 years of eating cookie dough and still no salmonella.
  11. Harambe.
  12. My elementary school teachers told me I HAD to learn multiplication because I would, “never be able to walk around with a calculator in my pocket.”
  13. Pop Tarts come in packs of two, but the serving size is only “one pastry?” Kellogg, explain
  14. My roommate back in Boulder stole my mattress
  15. The Pythagorean theorem was supposed to help me in my everyday life, but I still haven’t used it once
  16. Junk food is bad for you, but it tastes delicious? Someone explain??
  17. Doors that look like you push them, but you’re actually supposed to pull them
  18. Finding out that Sarah Mclachlan doesn’t donate to the SPCA
  19. Discovering whole wheat is healthier for you, but white bread is 200034x better
  20. Clicking “next episode” on Parks and Rec then realizing I had watched the entire series
  21. Driving to Chick-Fil-A on a Sunday to realize that it’s closed
  22. Feeling my body betray me by throwing up after I’ve only eaten 17 cookies
  23. Hearing my doctor say, “This will only hurt a little.” Then feeling Satan stab me with a machete
  24. My dentist stabbing my mouth with various torture devices, feeling my gums bleeding, then hearing her say, “If you flossed more you wouldn’t be bleeding.”
  25. Being a size XS in Old Navy’s clothes then being a Large in American Eagle’s
  26. Thinking my period is over, putting on white shorts, then BAM the red Nile flows
  27. Being handed a soda only to find out that it’s diet soda
  28. Hearing the Doctor say, “You need glasses.”
  29. Getting a test back I thought I did well on only to realize I scored a 7%
  30. Feeling my phone vibrate thinking it’s a text notification only to realize is a spam email
  31. Feeling my phone vibrate only to realize it’s just Instagram telling me a friend joined

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.
