Shaky Bridges Can Be Crossed Too

My last heartbreak was the worst, but I eventually got over that shaky bridge.

They say broken hearts can’t be fixed until you find someone new.

They say it never will be the same.

Well, that isn’t necessarily true.

I am me again, if not better than ever. I have had my heart broken and repaired. My last heartbreak was the worst, but I eventually got over that shaky bridge. I did not find a new man, instead, I had my best friend by my side the entire time telling me I was better.

You did it! Give yourself a pat on the back. You got over them, be happy and give yourself "you time." Give yourself time to explore and enjoy the single life. You have worked so hard and it finally paid off. Go hang out with the friends you haven’t hung out with in a while, enjoy it. Don’t rush yourself into another relationship because you’re lonely, you’ve worked hard on proving to yourself that you could do it without them, so do it.

Do not let a heartbreak ruin you or your views on “love” and “faith.” You will get over that shaky bridge and live on. The memories will still pop up, but instead of letting them get to you and upsetting you, look at them as the old you, the you that was thought to be forever happy with that one person.

Now look at yourself, the you that is even happier with your friends and family that are always there for you. Nothing can beat that.

Stay happy, stay single, we’re too young to let a heartbreak ruin our outlook on relationships

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?

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.
