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.

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.
