A Letter to My Best Friend's Ex Best Friend

My best friend is the one thing that keeps me going every day. The person that holds my head up for me when I am having a bad day. I would take a bullet for her any day, and I would never take advantage of her. She is the person I would call for literally anything and everything.

My best friend has an ex best friend. A girl who ran all over her like a doormat, and took advantage of her kindness. She felt the need to put her boyfriend before her best friend, and break every girl code known. Recently, she decided to try and come back into her life. I thought I would write her a letter to tell her why she shouldn’t.

First off, you had your chance to be a good best friend. You had the chance to do all the stuff with her, that I do with her now. She gave you so many chances to prove you were a good person, and you blew that. You don't deserve anymore. Stop trying to come back, because you she doesn't need her.

Secondly, stop playing the victim. You were not the victim in this situation, in fact you brought all of this on yourself. You just want people to feel sorry for you, but I don’t feel pity for you. If my best friends want to express her feelings about how much you hurt her, you let her. If she if hurt because of you, don't try to change her feelings. That's not how it works. You don’t have a right to be upset, because again you brought this on yourself.

One last thing, stop trying to come back into her life. You are a toxic person, who doesn’t deserve someone as nice as my best friend. You only do damage in her life, she doesn't need that. She doesn’t have room for you anymore. I’m sorry that you blew every chance you had, but I’m really not sorry. Thank you for making room in her life for me. Enjoy yourself.

Love,

Me

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?

Happy Birthday Cake

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?

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.
