A Post-Christmas Letter to Santa: Thank You

Dear Santa,

Hi there! Or should I call you Mr. Claus? Saint Nick? Eh...Santa will do.

Anyway, thank you so much for everything you do. This year's Christmas was another success of giving, quality family time, and holiday cheer for everyone. I will always be amazed at how you manage to travel to every house, deliver presents, and keep going without a beat! You are an inspiration to college students ever who can barely move during finals week, so good on ya!

How are the reindeer after the big night? Make sure Rudolph and all them get the self-care they deserve. They are valiant heroes in their own right, and without them, Christmas would not be possible. The same goes for your hardworking elves that deserve more credit than they receive.

Make sure you wash your suit and everything because they're probably sweating from all the hardwork you've done. How's Mrs. Claus? I hope she accomplishes her dreams as well, as she is an independent woman and your support system in all of this.

How do you survive up in the North Pole? *shivers* It makes me cold just thinking about it. Do you have a heater? Do you not mind the cold? Or do you have a magical power to heat everyone up? These are the questions I wonder.

Speaking of questions, why cookies and milk? Do you like other desserts, like brownies? And is chocolate milk ever an option? I do like my chocolate milk :)

All in all, you have always been a magical influence in my life, and are a big part why I love Christmas ever so much. No matter what anyone says, I will always believe in you and your constant holiday spirit. You're always be jolly in my heart.

Thanks again for everything, and I will see you next year! :)

Much love,

Your friend Kyle

PS: Take a long break. You deserve it. Happy New Year!

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?

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.
