President Trump, Do you Really Have 'Friends'?

Dear President Trump,

As I scrolled through the top stories of today's news I see that two Russian bomber planes were intercepted by two of our F-22 Raptor fighter aircraft on Monday. Mr. President, when you were battling for this high ranking position, you made it clear that you had become friends with Putin. Why would Putin release his bomber planes to the coast of Alaska?

If you are such good friends with Putin then why is he "showing his teeth?" Putin is supposed to support what you so call, "Making America Great Again," but I haven't seen that at all. He didn't even support you when you bombed Syria. These messages don't tell me I have a strong leader behind my back. We have a force of nature that is going to get us all killed.

On top of that, you've even made enemies with North Korea, more than we were before. Why do you keep putting our country in danger? Do you want nuclear war? If you continue with these rude, yet powerful actions, we will all end up dead. We don't trust you, Trump.

In my eyes, along with many other U.S. citizens, you didn't deserve this position and we all knew you'd destroy what President Obama made for us. Yes, President Obama struggled but at least he kept our country safe, friendly and worked to make it better. You've done nothing but make a mess of us all. Your mouth, attitude, and plans scare us all.

President Trump, please be careful. Please think before you speak and most of all, please keep our country's best interest in your heart. We're stuck with you for a few years but there needs to be a compromise in this.

Sincerely,

A scared citizen

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.
