To People Who Abused Their Second Chance

Do you remember all those times you begged and pleaded for mercy just so I can give you that one thing you wanted to get our friendship back to where to was? You remember what that was called? Judging by the way I’m writing this article it seems like you haven’t. That thing, you begged for so very much, was a second chance.

You only get one second chance, unless you have one of those friends that gives them away like she’s Oprah or someone with a million dollars. Even then why would you choose to actually abuse that chance to have things back to the way things were? If you really wanted the friendship to continue you would really try to keep that chance and change for the better.

The whole reason I stopped giving you these chances was because of how much you disappointed me and abused me to your full potential. I did not realize this until I actually saw who you were; however, I thought you could change, I thought you could become a better person in some way, shape or form, but I guess that’s not the case now is it?

Generally speaking everyone always tries to change themselves to actually gain a second chance with some people and choose to keep it. Those people know how to keep their life in order and their priorities are straight! You on the other hand, don’t know what’s going on with you and only want to stay around just to be around others for the heck of it.

In short, you don’t know how to handle a second chance and I hope anyone else you know will eventually realize this. Please, before you come back and ask for another chance, you should know by now that my answer is a flat out, straight forward no! End of story, case closed, go on now and have a nice life!

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?

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.
