No Significant Other is Alright

Not one person needs to go through life thinking that being in a relationship is the only way to be happy.

No Significant Other is Alright

All around, you will see couples everywhere. You see holding hands, kissing, laughing, etc. All of your friends may have someone that they never shut up about. I can see how that would make a person feel excluded from the circle.

But guess what? We have ALL been there. Every single person knows how it feels to not have a significant other in their lives. The more you think about it, the more it sucks. It may feel like the world is ending, but that should not be the case at all.

This goes out to all ages out there, especially the younger population. There are some out there that believe that they need someone else's hand to hold to be happy. I am so tired of hearing that. A person should not have to feel liked by the opposite sex or even the same sex to be complete in life, especially if you are young.

Who cares if you don't have a serious relationship? Be young, go on multiple dates, and just have fun. Eventually that special someone will come along....you will know when that happens. Just stop worrying about it and live your life. Everyone is a special person and has great friends...spend time with them and once again go out and have some fun!

The point of this is that you do not need someone. Everyone deserves to be happy, but you can be happy with your own person. Be happy with everything you have, not what you don't have. Focus on a bright future and I can bet that everything else will fall right into place.

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?

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.
