Dear Best Friend,

When I first met you, I did not know what to think of you. I thought you were crazy, but once we started being around each other more often, I thought you were pretty cool. It's now been almost 4 years that we have been friends. During these 4 years we've laughed, cried, yelled and have done some pretty stupid things together, but I wouldn't have done anything differently. Thank you for putting up with me. I know I'm not the easiest person to get along with, but you still put up with me.

Thank you for climbing through my window when I locked myself out of the house. Thank you for being there for me when Poppy died. Thank you for dealing with my random mood swings. Thank you for always supporting me, even if it was a bad idea. Thank you for singing along to my boy band music I put on in the car. Thank you for going shopping with me when I don't want to go by myself. Thank you for introducing me to my second family. Thank you for being the person that I can call when I'm upset and will make me laugh when I want to cry, and overall, thank you for being my best friend.

You have always been there for me and I can never thank you enough. You're always there when I need you. I know that sometimes we are both just so stubborn and don't listen to what the other is saying, but we always make it and become stronger than ever. I want you to know, that I will always be in your corner cheering you on. I will always be here for you whenever you need me. I will never leave your side. I can see us being by each other's side forever. No matter who comes in and out of our lives, I will know that you won't leave and you will always be there. Thank you for being there for me. I honestly don't know what I would do without you.

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.
