A thank you to the person I cannot live without.

An Open Letter To 'My Person'

Well this one isn’t easy for me to talk about. Please do not take this in a bad way you are my best friend, my other half, my wife for life, the Christina to my Meredith, and my person. It’s hard for me to talk about because you mean the world to me, there isn’t a day that goes by where I don’t talk to you. It’s always funny about when you tell people that you were stuck with me our senior year of high school and because of that you now love me. We were total opposites when we first met six years ago and it has been a crazy ride ever since.

I never thought that when we first met that all of this would happen, the road trips to watch the band at competition, the random dancing that would happen while we were listening to the band play, the staying up late because we were not tired and all of the food dates because I was hungry. You know more about me than anyone else. When I’m having a bad day you’re the one that I can call, when I am crying or upset you are the one that calms me down. I never understood what someone said when they said they found their “person” until I watched Grey’s Anatomy. Now I can safely say that you are “my person.” You are there when no one else is, you tell me to take risks in order to make myself happy, you push me harder than anyone else ever has.

You’ve been by my side through every major life event that I have been through. You have seen me at my best and at my worst. I never thought I would have someone that would be my lifelong best friend each and everyday I am grateful to have you in my life and I have no idea where I would be or who I would be if I didn’t have you by my side. When Lexi Grey and Mark Sloan died I’ll admit I was mad at you because you’re the one that made me watch Grey's Anatomy in the first place.

I do not believe that people are destined to be together. I never believed that fate is why people are brought together. However, I do think that you are meant to be in my life for the rest of my life, I think that there will always be a place for you. The late night talks that got me through a hard day, the dorky snaps that made me smile when I was sad, and the shoulder you gave me to cry on. I know for a fact that you WILL be the maid of honor at my wedding and you WILL be the godmother to my children. (Someone should help those poor kids) You will be my right hand until the day I die and I couldn't be happier about it. We will be the old ladies in the nursing home that joke around and play pranks on each other.

You are very hard working and so determined to achieve your goals. You are constantly making me want to work harder so I could be as good as you are. I am so proud of the person that you have become and how much you have grown over the last two years. I am ecstatic to see what kind of person you grow to be. I am excited for our future adventures and to see how much crazier we can grow up to be. We will always be twisted sisters and I will love you just like you were my own blood.

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.
