You showed me I deserve the best.

To The Boy Who Showed Me What Love Is
Danielle Santore

Thank you. You are the model of what my dad always said a good guy was. You are the type of person I dreamed of. You’re the person I didn’t think I would get the pleasure of calling mine.

You taught me that when someone loves you they are there. They are there when it is something important and even when it is something pretty small. You care about what I do and take interest in all the things I take part in. You are there if I am sick and being a brat. You are there even when I’m mean. You are also there when I am hyper and just need to do something. You are there because you care and it means a lot.

You taught me that when someone loves you they listen. You are always listening. You remember things that I say after months have gone by. You listen to the little things I say which lead to heart warming surprises. You listen when I am upset. You listen to me even when I am silent or don’t want to talk. You make it known that my voice matters and it is very warming.

You taught me that when someone loves you, you try. Whether we are fighting or having the greatest day ever we both still need to try. We both try our hardest especially when we fight. We try to push through and not hurt one another in the midst of that.

You taught me that when someone loves you, they push for your best. You always are positive and help me get through my toughest time. You make sure my bad days aren’t the worst. You make sure I stay dedicated to the goals I have set for myself.

You taught me that when someone loves you, its because of who you really are. You see me in my rawest forms and still stay. You see me in every mood and you stay. You love me for me and it’s something that I cherish.

So thank you for being mine. Thank you for being great.

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.
