From The Girl Who Is Always Late

We all have that friend. If it's not you, then you are picturing her right now and already know who I'm talking about. You know the type. The one who couldn't be on time even if her life depended on it. Okay, so I am that girl. But the thing is, there are tips and tricks to working through the epidemic that is sweeping millions of girls and women across the nation. If you're the oh-so patient friend of someone who has been struck, this is for you. If you're one of me, this is for you too. You can read it, smile, and know you're not alone.


1. If I need to be somewhere at 7:00 just lie and tell me 6:30. You'll thank me later.

2. If you're picking me up, text me that you are here before you leave your place.

3. When you do arrive to get me, maybe just turn off your car so you don't waste gas. Really we're saving you money this way.

4. I'll more than likely text back "Coming!" or "Okay, be right there!" But please know I am probably just plugging in my straightener. Your car is still off, right?

5. Since we're being honest, if I wasn't still doing my hair I was saying goodbye to my dog for the past 10 minutes or so.

6. At this point I may text you, "Do you just want to come in? I lost track of time, and it may be a sec!" You should probably just come in, but if not maybe call a relative and catch up?

7. If you don't come in, I promise I will eventually be there.

8. And when I do get in the car, I'll just smile and you'll try to hide yours because you know you don't have to say anything. I'm late, and yes, I do realize it.

9. Who like to be early anyways? Not me (us)!

10. Next time just lie and make the time earlier. You'll thank me later.


You know you love me.

XOXO,

The Girl Who is Always Late

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.
