Thank you.

To The People Who Made My Freshman Year
Abby Sannizzaro

To the people who made this first year at school what it was,

Thank you. Thank you for the endless laughs, the good times and the bad, being there for me through some of the biggest changes in my life, and for supporting me through this first year. I look back on the past two semesters here at school and I honestly don't know how it is almost over. Year one, done, just like that.

From getting in trouble for laughing too loud throughout a two hour lecture because we just couldn't focus, to running across campus at night to get back for our favorite T.V. show, the memories you've all given me this first year at school are some I will treasure for the rest of my life. I feel so fortunate to have made such amazing friends and meet so many incredible people that have changed my life and changed me as a person.

I didn't know what to expect coming into college. I knew that I was scared and wasn't sure if I would make friends. Luckily, I was fortunate enough to meet all of you, and those fears drifted away.

To the people who made this year all that it was, I don't know what I would do without you. Some of you have become some of the best friends that I've ever had. I feel like I could fill pages and pages with memories that I've had with all of you - and its only our freshmen year.

I don't know how one year could ever go by so fast, but I am so excited to see what the next few bring. I am scared and nervous but I am so happy to see where it will all lead and where we will all end up.

I guess we'll have to wait and see what the future will bring, but thanks for making this past year the best it could have been.

Lots of love.

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.
