To My Love

Falling for someone when you're not used to falling for anyone is the relationship that means the most.

To My Love

Dear loverboy,

Wow, who knew a jock and a jock/nerd/band geek would fall for each other. But, I wouldn’t trade it for anything. You make my life a living sunshine.

The first time I saw you, I knew it was love at first sight (which I never believed in). I was trying to find you all day to show my mom and when I finally found you, I would not shut up about you. I thought she was going to shove my mouth with food because I wouldn’t shut up. I am so glad I sat beside during orientation (so, thank you college).

Now we have been dating almost 2 years. Approximately 730 wonderful days with the most wonderful person. I would not trade them for anything. We have hit hard times but they have been overcome by high times. You’re literally by best friend. Live without you would be boring. Every day I wake up and wonder how I got so lucky.

Waking up and being loved by someone like you makes my day all the better. But loving you is even more fun. I will forever be in love with you. Knowing that you’re what I get to see every day after a long day of stupid teachers and stupid college, you’re more than enough to make my whole day change moods.

People say that you never meet your husband your first year of college but, I guess I was one of the lucky ones who found the love of her life early. Which I wouldn’t trade for the world. People ask me if I feel like I've missed out on the real college experience and I say "no." You’ve made my college experience more than amazing. You’ve helped me through so much. You’ve made me realize that I can do whatever I put my mind to.

You have made me a better person. You have opened my eyes to so many new things that I had never experienced before and who doesn’t love new adventures with the love of their life?

Thank you for loving someone as imperfect as me. I thank you for not calling out my imperfections unless it’s needed or I’m being a big head. Please never stop loving me.

Sincerely,

Your deeply in love girlfriend

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.
