A Thank You to the Best Mom in the World
Alyssa Moser

Dear Mom,

You are my best friend. My role model. My rock. My world. And most important, you are my mother. I don't know what I would do in this world without you. I see people that have terrible relationships with their mothers and I could not even imagine having that kind of relationship with you. I definitel do not say this enough but thank you. Thank you for sitting through every chorus concert. Thank you for giving me the opportunity to cheer for football and basketball all through out high school. Thank you for being there with every broken bone, every sprained ankle, every concussion, and every sickness I got. Thank you for sitting through everything I did. Thank you for being one of the very few parents that showed up to parent teacher conferences even though you already knew I was doing great. Thank you for helping me with all my homework from my adding and subtracting worksheets in first grade to helping me put everything together for my senior project. I appreciate you more than I think you realize. I would not be the person I am today if it wasn't for you. You taught me to be strong and independent. You taught me that beauty is not only on the outside but it is on the inside as well. Thank you for giving me everything that I needed or wanted as a child. I really do not say this enough but I appreciate all the little things you do for me. You do so much that you do not have to do. Your are the best mom I could ever wish of having. When I have children of my own I hope I am at least half as good of a mother as you are. I love you to the moon and back, to infinity and beyond, forever and ever! Again thank you for everything you do!

Love,

Your daughter

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.
