Thanks for keeping me alive.

To The Friend Who Never Let Me Down
ErikaMoore

Dear you,

I am writing this letter because you have made an impact on my life. I have only known you for almost six years, and I am thankful for those years. No matter what, you have always been there when I needed you. From day one, I have had a lot of problems and flaws. You stayed by my side through it all. Regardless if I was in a relationship or not, you were always there. We've had a lot of good memories and many bad. However, the good always have and will outweigh the bad. If I ever felt like I needed someone to talk to, you answered, even at 4am. If I ever felt like I needed to do harm or leave my house, you talked to me until I calmed down. You skyped me and watched me until I went to sleep, just to make sure I wouldn't do anything stupid and hurt myself. You cared about me and loved me like no one has ever before. I thank you for that. I may not always act like I have appreciated it, but I do and always will. I know we have our arguments, but they are nothing compared to the relationship we had. I remember when you were looking at wedding/engagement rings for us. Time has passed, but nothing has changed. I know that we are both involved with other people and have our own lives, but I will always be here for you no matter what and I know you feel the same. There is so much more I could write, but I'm pretty sure you know the rest. I love you. 12/28/10

Love Always,

Erika

Okay, not done. I just thank God that I met you. If it wasn't for you, I might not be here. You have kept me alive. You helped me through a really bad time in my life. I don't think you know how much that means to me. Thank you so much for everything you've done for me. I hope I had an impact on your life, like you did on mine. While writing this, I thought about all of the good time and memories we had. I cherish them and I look forward to the many more.

Now . . .

Love Always,

Erika

To those who celebrate, you just spent an entire day cooking an elaborate meal with all of your favorite foods. You probably ate your body weight in pumpkin pie and mashed potatoes. What happens now? Oh yea, Christmas. It’s time to take out all of the decorations and Christmas themed things that have been sitting in the attic since last year; it’s time to make a reappearance. So, here are 10 things that happen the second Thanksgiving is over.

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.
