Dear Dad

Dear Dad


Dad,

I love you.

Each day I learn something new about you, besides what I already know, that includes how phenomenal you are.

We may not always see eye to eye. We both argue, disagree on things, and get irritated with eachother, but I wouldn’t want it any other way.

To the world you are my dad, but to me you are my world.

There is nothing better than getting the constant love, support and motivation from you.

All the memories we made and continue to make are the best and I wouldn’t trade it for the world.

You deserve the world, even with you being so loving, you would share the world with everyone.

You inspire me, and I thank God everyday for having a blessing like you to be my father. I pray I can have a man like you some day, so loving, kind-hearted, thoughtful, adventurous, daring, humble, humorous, and outstanding like you.

But Dad, you are on of a kind, and there will be no one in this world that can change that.

Everything you do for me and everyone else, makes me feel motivated to be just like you.

I will never know how you do it, be an excellent father, grandfather, husband, uncle, brother, nephew, son, or friend. No matter who comes and go’s. I’ll be right there with you, through thick and thin, thinner and thicker.

There will never be enough words in this world, for me to express on how much I love you and will always continue to love you.

with all the love in the world

love,

your daughter, Haley.

Life is hard. You know what makes it even more tough? Living with chronic b*tch face (CBF). This condition is so debilitating that I have decided to chronicle the 10 things everyone who suffers from CBF experiences. Who better to help me than the queen of CBF herself, Blair Waldorf?

I thought senioritis in high school was rough until I became a college senior about to go into the real world. I'm supposed to have everything figured out, right? I mean I went through four years of tough classes and serious self-searching (and crying). What I found overall was Senioritis sneaking up on me.

College is filled with many things, and we're so often lectured to make the right decisions as we head out on our own into the college life. But sometimes it's necessary to indulge in some guilty pleasures as well as just doing things because you can. And honestly, a lot of the time it's inevitable. College is no piece of cake that's for sure, so it's okay to do some things you deep down know you shouldn't....once in a while anyways.
