Thank you for the time we shared.

For Those Friends Who Drifted Apart
Katy Man

The Lord has blessed me with many amazing friendships in my time here on earth. Over time quite a few of those super close friendships began to drift. No specific reason other than life. We drifted but none of them were for bad reasons. We are growing up, and life took us in completely different directions. It's sad sometimes to think about how we thought we would be together all the time. But i'll always have these friendships with me, because they each taught me so much about who I am. We may not be as physically close as we once were but, to me we are just as close because you helped me become who I am today.

Throughout the course of life our paths changed. Some of us moved off from home, some of us left the state, some of us just took different trails in life. I'm writing this to say that, I understand. I will never blame you, because I did the same. We tried to keep up, we still text here and there. But as life moved forward so did we. But I don't regret a thing. I will never ever forget all our wild times, and our stupid jokes. I also believe that when we see each other again we will create more of those memories. When I love you, you're stuck with me for life. So we don't spend every moment together or call or text constantly, I think it's OK. Because when we meet up or share a funny post or text message I feel like we pick up right were we left off. I won't ever stop caring about you. I love telling people all our stories I will ALWAYS text you when i'm reminded of something we did or said we wanted to do. Just like you do for me.

You played a huge role in my life and who I am as a person. I will never forget any of that and I hope you don't either.

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?

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.
