Guess what, y'all?!

BASEBALL SEASON IS ALMOST HERE.

Well, technically it's spring training right now which means that regular season is just around the corner.

Baseball has always been my favorite sport and as the years have gone on my love for the sport has grown. From the first game, I ever saw to now my excitement hasn't changed so without question here's my love letter to the game.

Dear Baseball,

It all started when I was really young. My first memory of watching a baseball game was at one of my older brother's games, I was too little understand the game but I knew I liked it.

I still remember the first time I got to go see my favorite team play for the first time. The rush I got when I first walked into the stadium was unexplainable. I was full of pure joy and excitement.

Then the smell of fresh hot dogs and the sounds of the stadium fill my ears. But the first thing I did was run to see the field so that I could soak in every little detail.

Fast forward to the game, hearing all the different sounds of the game from the ball hitting the mitt to the crowd yelling. It was a sight to see for someone like me; so you best believe I was at the edge of my seat.

From that first game to now. I'm still on the edge of my seat with every game I go to. I still get excited when I step into the stadium and there's absolutely nothing like it.

So thank you baseball for helping through the winter blues and coming in clutch during those perfect summer days. thank you for inspiring me to find a career in sports and do what I'm really passionate about.

Love,

Me

P.S. Sorry boys, baseball is the true love of my life.

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.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.
