High school seems like ages ago.

It has been over two years since we all walked across that stage in that horrible yellow gown. Many of us are twenty or about to turn twenty. It's so weird that we're not teenagers running around Mad Co anymore.

Many of us are in college, miles apart from each other. Working on our futures and paving the way for our careers.

Even though most of us have all gone our separate ways, I wish nothing but the best for every single one of you.

I don't care if we didn't like one another very much, we had our disagreements, we dated in the past, anything. Life is too short to hold grudges and to be full of hate and resentment. There's already enough of that going around in the world, no need to add fuel to the fire. Let bygones be bygones.

I hope your successful and that you get everything you could ever dream of.

It's interesting the people you hold close to you while you grow and become who you are. Even if we're not as close as we once were, if you ever need anything, I am always a phone call or a text away. I don't care what it's for, a car ride, advice, just someone to talk to. I'm there.

You guys will always be my friends and you will always have a place in my heart.

With the holiday season approaching us, I'm sure I will be seeing some of you and catching up on life. If I don't, I hope everything is going well. I hope school isn't trying you like it is me, I hope you're enjoying life and doing the most. We're almost halfway done with college, that's insane to me. I hope you enjoy the holidays with your families and I'm sure I will see you sometime in the future.

Miss and love you guys!

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.
