Nice to meet you honey! Welcome to the list of "Musts" to be my husband or boyfriend. You have to...

1. Better be able to shake my fathers hand

2. Better love country

3. Love hunting and fishing

4. Love drinking

5. Enjoying each other company

6. Laughing at each other jokes

7. Building each other's lives together

8. Smoking🚬

9. Hearing mostly

10. Mudding

11. Drives a Chevy or Gmc

12. Better work and not sit on your ass all the time.

13. Take care of me... though I can take care of myself.

14. Be successful with your ethics, don't give up.

15. Horseback riding.

16. Long Sunday drives

17. Better be able to tell my father you can take care of his little girl. Or else.

If you cannot handle telling my father that, better know you're getting the gun to your head... kidding.

18. You're not the only guy in my life, sweetie, I'm really close to my brother more than anyone else.

My brother is my best friend. I'm not going to get rid of him for you. My brother means a lot to me.

19. Like really big houses. Log cabins are my favorite though.

20. Have a love for coffee. I'M NOT A MORNING PERSON!

21. Don't drop me because I'm struggling.

22. Be a business person to be honest.

They make a ton of good money.

23. Just get on your feet and take care of yourself!

24. Have a love passion for dogs 🐶

25. Be a bonfire kind of person.

26. Four wheeling

27. Don't be stupid and tell me you can't love me

28. Go out to dinners once in a while.

29. You're going to have to be a working man to spend money on me.

I'm expensive. To my defense, I'm a million bucks.

30. Stand up and be a man. And I'll be your queen! 👑

31. Like long drives, just as much as Sunday drives goes, like taking road trips around the town or country.

32. Help each other out.

33. Be a gentleman.

If you want to shake my fathers hand; you have to at least one of those traits for me to accept.

If you want to shake my brothers hand, you have to have at least have one of traits too. This is the only way to have you a part of my family.

If you want to be apart of this heart of mine, at least have a truck, drink, smoke, coffee loving, country music loving and be hearing. Those are MY must haves.

Don't give up on a daily basis! Don't give up on our marriage. Don't give up on us period. Everyone is stubborn in their own ways. Get to know me before you fall in love. I tend to love my Luke Bryan love more. Sorry not sorry. I do not care if you think it's not right, if you can not handle my obsession with Luke Bryan or handle me in general, get the hell out.

They say college changes you. To be honest, they weren't kidding you. They say life will hit you in the damn face. No lie, it does. I'm ready to get my work life going. I'm ready to be happy. I can't be happy anymore. Im ready to be happy. Some people cannot accept that I'm not following their dreams, to be honest, im sick and tired of people telling me what to do. I'm 18 years old and I want to be happy. Whatever I do, is not your problem. Just enjoy your life and don't get caught up in mine. I love some of my life, sure I fucked up once. We're all fricking human. Again, if you don't let me go, I won't ever learn. Just wait, I'll be out of your lives and on my own to support myself. Again, I probably won't need a man. Then again, it would be nice. I'm only be honest on everything.

Just be okay and I'll accept you for who you are, just have those musts.

Love, your future.

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?

The holiday season is full of stress, debt, and forced conversation. While we rush through the month of December, it's important to take a step back and enjoy the moments before they're gone. Most families love to watch Christmas movies, but these beloved films provide more than entertainment. Here are 10 life lessons that I've learned from the holiday classics we watch every year.

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.

1."But what would happen if we all tried to be like Santa and learned to give as only he can give: of ourselves, our talents, our love and our hearts? Maybe we could all learn Santa's beautiful lesson and maybe there would finally be peace on Earth and good will toward men."

"Sometimes the most real things in the world are the things we can't see."

"If you won't use your heart, who cares if it gets broken? If you just keep it to yourself, maybe it'll be like my rollerblades. When you do decide to try it, it won't be any good. You should take a chance. Got nothing to lose."

"Remember, no man is a failure who has friends."

"Life is made up of meetings and partings. That is the way of it."

"If you look for it, I've got a sneaky feeling you'll find a that love actually is all around."

"Sometimes things look good on paper, but lose their luster when you see how it affects real folks. I guess a healthy bottom line doesn't mean much if to get it, you have to hurt the ones you depend on."

"'Maybe Christmas,' he thought, 'doesn't come from a store. Maybe Christmas, perhaps, means a little bit more.'"

"Faith is believing when common sense tells you not to."

"There's room for everyone on the nice list."

Hopefully they will make you laugh.
