A Letter to the Friends I Grew Apart From

I'm sorry this had to happen to us.

A Letter to the Friends I Grew Apart From
Emily Rose

Hey guys,

First of all, I want to say that I miss you. I miss the memories we made and all of the crazy times we shared. I miss our dinner dates, ice cream runs, long phone calls, and study sessions. I miss hanging out in our onesies and bingeing on junk food while marathon-watching all of our favorite movies. I miss all of the random, spur of the moment adventures we went on. I miss you, and our friendship, so freaking much.

When we became friends, it was like an instant connection. We shared a lot of interests and had the same sense of humor. We could be so weird together and take the strangest selfies. We had some of the best conversations, ranging from celebrity gossip to life and the future. We could talk about anything.

I don't really remember how it happened. I am still fuzzy on whether or not it happened gradually or all at once. I guess I could feel it coming. It wasn't even anyone's fault. We both got busy, and we both had a lot going on. One day I realized that I hadn't seen you or even talked to you in a while. I wasn't even sure how long it had been. Suddenly, I realized that our random adventures had ceased. We stopped having our heart to hearts, and we didn't schedule meals together anymore.

I'm sorry that this had to happen to us. Please know that I will always wish the best for you, and I am cheering you on from afar. I will always be here if you need anything. Never forget that. You will always have a special place in my heart.

Thank you for everything. I miss you.

6 Unrealistic Expectations Society Has For Young Adults

Don't let the thesaurus-inspired vocabularies in our résumés fool you. We're actually just big kids.

Well over four feet tall and 100 pounds in weight, many of us "young adults" of the world still consider ourselves children. Big, working, college-attending, beer-drinking children. We may live on our own, know how to cook noodles, and occasionally use a planner, but don't be fooled; the youthful tendencies that reside within us still make their way into our daily lives. From choosing to stay up until 3:00 a.m. playing video games on a school night to going out in 30 degree weather without a coat, we still make decisions that our parents and grandparents would shake their heads at in disappointment. So why are we expected to know exactly how to be a wise, professional, sensible adult? It's not that we're irresponsible (for the most part, anyway). It's that we are young, inexperienced, and still have the sought-after, enthusiastic mentality that we can do and be whatever we want, which has not yet been tarnished by the reality of the world. These are just a few of the unrealistic expectations that society has for young adults.

There are a lot of foods in this world, but there is only one dish that stands above the rest: Pizza. If you're close to me or at least know who I am, then you know that I'm totally obsessed with pizza. It's one of my favorite things to eat and I will NEVER turn down a slice, even if it doesn't have my favorite toppings. There isn't a day that goes by where I'm not thinking about pizza. I even sleep with a pizza pillow every night! There are many reasons why pizza stands above all other foods, and here are just a couple reasons why.
