"Wanna fly? You've gotta give up the shit that weighs you down."
-Toni Morrison

You're feeling lost, life has kicked you in the ass a few times and it feels like you have hit rock bottom. Whether you're struggling from heartbreak, loss, or life just plain sucks right now, let me just tell you that you're a badass bitch and you can get through this! The good thing about hitting rock bottom is that the only place to go from here is up!

Life has its ups and life has its downs. Even in life's lowest points, the sun still rises, you are still breathing, you are important, and you are loved! Remember that everything we do in life has a reason. Every obstacle we encounter is designed to teach us a lesson. Being lost can help you find yourself!

You are already making progress by reading this. You recognize you're feeling this way, you recognize that you're not happy; and you recognize that it's time for change. It is time to become the person that you have always strived to be. Take a deep breath, put your tiara on, don't let anyone bring you down, and become the princes that you are. Create a life that you love. Reconnect with your passions, your dreams and learn to dream big! Remember that you are in control; you have the power to do anything your heart desires. You are the creator of this story!

Stay positive along the way; and remember that you have to fall down in order to get back up. You have to fail in order to succeed. Never back down; this is what you want, so chase after that and don't give up till you are exactly where you want to be. Be brave! Its okay to be scared, but don't let your fears keep you from going after your dreams!

You are a limited edition. So, paint your nails, put on your favorite pair of shoes, look in the mirror, and remind yourself of the fierce bitch that you are. Get ready for this next chapter, because you're going to kick it in the ass.

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?
