Dear Best Friend

Dear Best Friend,

I know we haven’t really seen each other very much since I have been off at college. To be honest though, you have had a lot going on yourself. Don’t think I don’t care about you just because we aren’t talking as much as we used to. I still love you dearly and I think about you all the time. I know we don’t even text that much either but really, I don’t text that much anyways.

Classes are hectic and when I’m not gaining knowledge or eating, I’m asleep. I know you miss me and I miss you too. So, when you get to missing me, just think about what we have been through together and know that I’m just trying to figure out where I fit in at school and in the world. I am overjoyed when I see your posts about your day or when I see your weird snapchats. I am also glad that you are finding your niche at your university and you are making new friends that aren’t fake.

However, we have been there for each other for the past seven years, in the good and the bad. For the good, I like to think of our inside jokes. You losing your eyepatch was quite hilarious! Also, I like to look back on the times we have spent together where we just do dumb things. We could honestly just sit together for hours and talk about nothing in particular. The bad however wasn’t exactly fun. You were there when I needed a shoulder to cry on and you were there through all of my crushes. I was there when you needed someone to cry into and when you had your breakups. Even though I can be a bit violent and protective, you stayed with me. We were there for each other when we were needed the most and even when we weren’t really needed but just wanted to just be in each other’s presence. What I love the most about our friendship is that we can be away from each other for months at a time and when we get together again much later, it’s as if we were never parted. We pick up right where we left off and we are right back in the other’s life.

The last thing that I want to tell you is that I love you and that I don’t want to ever lose you. Stay strong and remember to live your life even if I can’t be there all of the time. I love you!

Your Bestfriend

Oh yea, Christmas. It’s time to take out all of the decorations and Christmas themed things that have been sitting in the attic since last year; it’s time to make a reappearance. So, here are 10 things that happen the second Thanksgiving is over.

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?

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.
