To The Co-Worker Turned BFF

A treasured friendship I didn't think I'd have.

To The Co-Worker Turned BFF
Nani Williams

To a true Hufflepuff,

I never expected to make any close friends working. My mind set was go in, work, leave, then get paid in two weeks. But you changed that thought process very fast. You went from some co-worker to one of my best friends.

I remember heading into my first day of work. It was my first semester at college. I had never had a job before and was going to be working in dining. You already in the kitchen when I came in with your bright colored hair.

I don't think we talked seriously for the first like three weeks until we found a common interest. In our case, it was writing. We would talk through our entire shifts about what project were working on and our favorite books.

From there, work shifts were filled with conversations. They would range from Harry Potter theories to relationship problems.

You quickly became one of my closest friends. Someone to confide to when I needed to vent or upset. You were always there to listen, even when my problems were small.

Thank you for being there when I need you. I hope I can do the same for you. I'll never forget what a comfort you were when I was suffering through heartbreak. You've never given up on me.

It's sad that we no longer work together. You graduated and I took another opportunity. I miss our morning conversations and author work days. But no matter, what I'm sure our friendship remains. Can't wait for your to visit again.

Sincerely,

One of your favorite Slytherins

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.
