An Open Letter To My High School Friends

Where would I be today without these girls.

An Open Letter To My High School Friends
Allison Thurz

There are some people in your life you never get a chance to thank. Today, this article gives me that chance to thank some very special friends of mine, so here it goes!

Where do I even start? These girls have been in my life ever since day one of high school. Between all of our sleepovers, traditional holiday parties, and celebrating each others birthdays, I don't know where I would be today without each and everyone of you.

Thank you for always having my back in both good times and in bad. I honestly do not know what I would have done for the past five years without all of you by my side. Between shopping for hours at the mall, goofing around and pushing each other in shopping carts at Walmart, and always joking around with each other on and off our old high school campus.

I could never imagine another group of close friends that would show the same love and support as much as each and every one of you! Whenever a problem has ever occurred in my life, I have always known where to find a shoulder to cry on or some one who is willing to listen and give there best advice as possible.

To me, I consider you more than friends, I consider you more as sisters. A group of girls that met in high school that will share anything with each other, and care for each other no matter what. And as we have each others backs while we take our own individual paths in college life, I look forward to continuing our daily Skype calls that bring laughter and joy to one another, and memories that we have each cherished ever since day one.

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.
