An Appreciation Letter to All Of My Friends

During most of my childhood, I had a really hard time making friends mainly because I was really shy and I didn't really fit in with the kids that were around me. So I felt really alone and like a complete loser. As I got older, I have been lucky to meet a lot of people who have made my life so much better. The people who make my life full of laughs, smiles, and adventure. They are the people who I call my friends, and who I wouldn't trade for anything else in the world. I was a shy person growing up and meeting all these people in my life has made more a happy, bubbly person. A person who is more confident in who she is as a person. So this letter is for all of my friends, and how much I love and appreciate you all.

Whether I see you every day, or only a few times a month, thank you for the impact you have had on my life, whether it was a positive or a negative one, it has made me a better person. Thank you for making me feel accepted even though you know I can be a bit weird and quirky. I'm different and it makes me happy that you guys accept that part of me.

Thank you for supporting me and giving me the confidence in many events, stages and things that I have gone through when I didn't think I could do it. Whether we met in middle school, high school, college, work, and etc. You all gave me the confidence to go for anything and made whatever I was going through a distant memory with laughter and positive vibes.

Each one of you has lifted me up when life got hard, to be a shoulder to cry on when I overwhelmed, and a listening ear when I just needed to vent. Made me laugh when I was sad and overall make me feel like the luckiest girl in to have friends like all of you.

I appreciate all of you and I promise that as much as you guys are here for me, I will be there for you no matter what. Even if we cant see each other every day, I am only a call or a text away. I treasure our friendship with all my heart and value it. I can't wait to create even more memories with all of you and have our friendship grow even stronger.

Life is full of ups, downs, and twists, however, when you have great friends it makes life even sweeter just like ice cream. Thank you all for being the most amazing friends in the world, and being apart of my life. I love you all so much!

11 Things Summer Nannies Can Relate To

As a college student, being a nanny over the summer is both enjoyable and challenging. Underneath the seemingly perfect trips to the pool or countless hours spent playing Monopoly are the obstacles that only nannies will understand. Trading in your valuable summer vacation in return for three months spent with a few children less than half your age may seem unappealing, but so many moments make it rewarding. For my fellow summer nannies out there, I know you can relate.

To The Girl Who Falls Too Fast, Never Be Ashamed Of How Hard You Love

Love hard, every day, and never be ashamed.

If it hurts now, it'll hurt again. Not because you're gullible or naive, only because you fall fast, hard, and you do it every time.

We fall each and every time with the complete and utter confidence that someone will be there to catch us. Now that person we SWORE we were never going to fall for has our hearts, and every time we see them our palms start sweating. The butterflies in our stomach start to soar and our hearts are entirely too close to bursting out of our chests.

Growing up I have always wanted to own a horse. My grandparents own a well known equestrian facility in Georgia, so I have been riding since I was born. A bond between a person and their horse is a bond so strong that it cannot be broken. Everywhere I went I wanted to be around horses, even forcing my family to go on trail rides during vacations. Horses have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember has taught me great responsibility, as well as 14 things that all equestrians can relate to.

College is super hard. Between working, studying, and having a social life, it feels like a struggle to just keep afloat.

I understand. When you feel like your drowning and there's no way to stay afloat I understand that it feels like everyone else is doing just fine. I understand all the frustration, long nights in the library, and that feeling that you want to just throw in the towel. I understand that sometimes it's too hard to get out of bed because your brain is already filled with too much information to remember. I understand because I am also feeling pretty burnt out.

Some of the best advice I've ever received was from my social studies teacher in sophomore year of high school. He stated, "If you don't know it at midnight, you're not going to know it for the 8 a.m. exam, so get some sleep."

It's such a simple piece of advice, but it holds so much accuracy and it's something that the majority of college students need to hear and listen to. "All-nighters" are a commonality on college campuses in order to cram in studying for an exam that is typically the next day.
