I just ask for someone to love and love in return.

An Open Letter To My Future Husband
Fabio Formaggio

Dear future husband,

I would like to start by saying that I am not an easy woman to love. I don’t handle stress well, I’m extremely hard on myself, I’m sensitive, and I have a tendency to hold things back. I am learning to love myself a little more every day, but the love I have for you is enough to fill your heart until it overflows. I have a lot of love to give.

I know you have been hurt in the past, but those are not my plans. My plans are to love you more than you have ever been loved. My love knows so boundaries, there will be no limits as to what I will do for you, I will only grow to love you more each passing second as long as you always give me room to grow. My love knows no fear. There will never be a doubt in either of our minds on whether or not we are real, or whether or not I am yours alone. I promise to be truthful and faithful, as long as you return the same to me. I want to wake up wrapped in your warm embrace every morning, and fall into your sweet kisses every night. You are more than a "significant other" to me, you're my best friend. We absolutely must be silly together forever. Without humor, what do we really have? I love telling jokes, laughing until it hurts, or laughing until we cry. You always know how to put a smile back on my face even when I feel like my world is crashing down. Thank you. Thank you for making me smile, thank you for taking care of me, and thank you for teaching me how to stand on my own two feet.

Dear future husband, I'm kind of hard to sleep with. I'm a bed hog, sometimes I snore really loud, I like to death grip/cuddle whatever is closest to me and I still sleep with the stuffed bunny I got on my very first Easter. But our sheets will always be clean and the bedroom always cozy. I love when you pull me closer if I move too far away in my sleep, and I love that you accept my death cuddle anyway. I'm also kind of a mess in the morning. My hair knots up on top of my head, and sometimes I'm really really cranky, but if you can still look at me when I'm like that with the same loving eyes that you look at me with when I'm in my finest dress and heels, then I will never be afraid around you.

I am not a material girl, I don't want fancy things. So, please never worry about buying me any clothes or makeup. If you would honestly like to buy me anything, I like books, pens, and notebooks. But honestly, I'd rather a flower or a cool rock you found. If you can take my hands and dance with me even when there is no music, I will eternally be yours. I have two left feet, but I love dancing and spinning all around the room because dancing with you is where I feel most beautiful. I don't need the "hottest MAC lipstick." I need to sit up late with you watching The Neverending Story, both smiling and crying, reliving my childhood with you next to me.

All in all, future husband, I just ask for someone to love and love in return. I want to share this crazy life with you, and I want to experience the real magic with you by my side. Between the two of us, the adventure will never die. If you keep me smiling, I'll keep you wild.

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.
