To My Inspirational Best Friend
Alexa Victoria

There are moments, people, and places that captivate you and inspire you to be a better person. They make you realize the little things in life, and how life is too short. Life is too short to argue or fight, to count your blessings, and love the family and friends that are continuously there for you.

I consider myself lucky, my best friend inspires me to be a better person. She makes me realize what actually matters in my life. Not only is she a role model, but she is also one of the best and most genuine people I have ever had the privilege and pleasure of becoming friends with.

From the moment we met working at a baseball stadium when we were young teenagers in high school, we instantly became sisters. I had no idea that you would impact my life in such a paramount way. We both have endured detrimental times in our life, that we both didn’t know we could get through, but through it all, the hardships, the struggles, you have remained my rock, my sister. You’re someone I will always look to for comfort, and you are always there for me when I need you.
Because of you, I laugh a little harder, cry a little less, and smile a lot more. Seeing how strong you are and how much of an influential friend you are changed my life. Because of this, I know that we’re going to be friends for life. Keep on being you, because I love who you are and what you’ve become. You’re truly an inspiration, and I’m so blessed to have you as my best friend.

8 Things I Realized After My First Semester In College

Actually, Kylie Jenner, 2018 is the year of realizing things.

The first semester of college is famous for being one of the most difficult transitions of one's young adult life. You're thrown into a completely new area where the majority of the people surrounding you are strangers in an academic environment that's much more challenging then what you've grown accustomed to for the past twelve years. On top of that, you probably share a room with another person (or even multiple people) on the lumpiest "mattress" you've ever slept on.

With this change comes a lot of questions: what do I want to major in? What am I passionate about? Is what I'm passionate about something I'm actually good at? Why does the bathroom smell like cranberry juice and vodka? What is that thing at the bottom of the shower drain?

6 Unrealistic Expectations Society Has For Young Adults

Don't let the thesaurus-inspired vocabularies in our résumés fool you. We're actually just big kids.

Well over four feet tall and 100 pounds in weight, many of us "young adults" of the world still consider ourselves children. Big, working, college-attending, beer-drinking children. We may live on our own, know how to cook noodles, and occasionally use a planner, but don't be fooled; the youthful tendencies that reside within us still make their way into our daily lives. From choosing to stay up until 3:00 a.m. playing video games on a school night to going out in 30 degree weather without a coat, we still make decisions that our parents and grandparents would shake their heads at in disappointment. So why are we expected to know exactly how to be a wise, professional, sensible adult? It's not that we're irresponsible (for the most part, anyway). It's that we are young, inexperienced, and still have the sought-after, enthusiastic mentality that we can do and be whatever we want, which has not yet been tarnished by the reality of the world. These are just a few of the unrealistic expectations that society has for young adults.
