Grandma's are here for a good time, not a long time and we want to enjoy them while they last. Here are some reasons why your grandma should be your best friend.

1. She spoils you with love and lots of cookies.

Grandmas make the best cookies, regardless of flavor.

2. She never fails to make her house feel like home.

Sometimes if your lucky, you even get your own room.

3. She takes you on some pretty bomb vacations.

Whether it’s the next town over or somewhere tropical, she spoils you.

4. She's been with you since birth so she basically knows everything about you.

All of your past relationships, all of your friends, your daily routine, she knows it all.

5. She keeps your secrets from your parents.

She knows some things that you’ll keep from them for your entire life.

6. She's pretty much your human diary.

Tell her everything, she won’t judge. Also, she gives some pretty good advice based on her life experiences.

7. Did I mention that she bakes a lot of cookies?

Snickerdoodles, chocolate chips, sugar, no bakes...

8. She listens to you more than she listens to anyone else.

She would drop everything just to hear your voice.

9. She gives you a little more love than she ever gave her own kids.

Grandkids are truly spoiled!

10. In her eyes, you can never fail, no matter what.

Even if you win last place in your favorite sport, you won first place in her eyes.

11. She has the biggest knowledge of natural healing remedies for when you get hurt.

Don’t even get me started on the jello/Sore-throat trick or the “spoonful of sugar helps the medicine go down.”

12. She has seen you naked as a baby so she knows you inside and out.

She has changed your diapers and most likely kissed you all over the place so know that she probably knows where all of your birthmarks and scars are.

13. She makes an effort to introduce herself as "grandma" to your friends.

Mi abuela es tú abuela. = “My grandma is your grandma.”

14. She never thinks that you are too old for sleepovers at her house.

She definitely knows how to party!

15. ^ Where she makes cookies

AH YAY COOKIESSSS!!!!!

16. She's down for crazy adventures because she savors your youth.

You may think that she is being “embarrassing” or “uncool” by going to the movies with you but someday you’ll look back on those days and smile.

17. She loves you more than anyone in the world so cherish her at all costs.

No one lives forever, spend all the time that you can with her!

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.
