An open letter to my boyfriend.. 4/10/17.

Dear J,

At this very moment in time, I am the most infatuated with you I have ever been, but I know this is so miniscule compared to how I will feel for you as time goes on. As we progress in our relationship and as the days fly by, I fall more and more for you every day. You show me how to make light out of serious situations, you make me laugh at the most stupid stuff, you introduce me to new music and art.

You make me believe in the good things coming and you make me want to live until I’m 90 and all of our present-day experiences will just be fond memories by then. You show me how to trust again, you show me how to love again. You prove to me every day that you care about me and that your intentions are pure. You’ve got a heart of gold and the most beautiful soul I’ve ever had the pleasure of experiencing.

I’m not one to be sappy and cheesy where I know the whole wide world can see it, but you make me want to try new things and get out of my comfort zone.

You push my limits in the best way, but you’re so understanding and respectful of my limits and boundaries. You show me new places and new food, heck, one day I may even try actual sushi.

You make me feel beautiful even when I know I look like a total egg. You tell me how beautiful I am multiple times a day, and I can’t thank you enough for that. I don’t feel the need to put my past on blast for everyone to see, but you know it and I hope you realize how much I appreciate you and everything you do and say.

I could talk about you forever and write a million words describing how I feel about you, but I think it would be too long for anyone to ever be able to read.

Like I told you awhile ago.. how I feel for you is what hopeless romantics always try to write about but they can never find the right words.

Thank you for everything you do every single day, thank you for being you, thank you for existing.

Thank you for being mine, J.

Us against the world, f&e.

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?

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?

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. 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.
