A Poem for my Best Friend, Happy Birthday

Sometimes your soulmate can be your best friend

A Poem for my Best Friend, Happy Birthday
aceshowbiz

The big man thought of a master plan one sunday afternoon


He saw two souls sitting alone, both had been touched with gloom


He waltzed over to them and carefully observed

One was outgoing, the other nervous and reserved

As he examined, a spark went off in his mind

And he grabbed all of the ambition and intelligence he could find

He put those qualities in a bowl, along with some others

The pair would be funny, beautiful, and they’d both have brothers

One had the the power to create symphonies with the sound of just one note

The other could captivate anyone with anything that she wrote

The big man smiled with joy and after the souls were completed

He created a few disasters to teach them lessons that were needed

As others watched what he created they worried he was being too tough

But the big man replied, “in order to be great, their lives must first be rough”

When everything was done, he planned two births,

He would do everything he can to make sure these souls met on earth

With the flick of a wrist he sent the first one down

The other followed five months later, and the man started the countdown

He counted down until the two would meet

Because he knew together they would never face defeat

And when they finally meant, they had instant chemistry

That’s all because their friendship was destiny

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.
