Friends Are Families Which We Can Select

Let me start off by saying a bit about the important people in my life. I was never extremely close with anyone in my family. My dad and I were always too similar, and my mom and I were too different. I spent a lot of time in high school either in my bedroom, or hanging out with my friends away from my family. I have a sister, Lexie, who has made a lot of horrible choices in her life and for some reason doesn't want to have anything to do with me. 


My best friends in the entire world are the most misfit group of guys. Spencer, my best best friend, has the personality that can make anyone laugh. DJ, is the one who constantly teases me and picks on me, but would do anything for me. Drew is most like a big brother to me. He's always watching out for me. And Hogan is the funniest almost country boy in the world. He's not very good with women, but at least he tries! 


My roommates in college are some of the sweetest girls I have ever met. I have a very hard time trusting girls because I have been stabbed in the back way too many times. But I'm starting to get close to these girls. Abeer is the quiet one. I honestly don't think she has ever been angry at anything in her entire life! She is always, and I mean always happy. Then there is Sydney. She is the loud over-dramatic one that frustrates the shit out of me sometimes, but the apartment would not be the same without her. She has a great heart. And lastly there's Angel. Angel is the most like me and therefor we confide in each other much more than we do with the other girls. Its nice to have someone who has gone through similar things to me. 


And lastly there's my boyfriend Dylan. He is actually an ex-boyfriend from high school and we both went to separate colleges far away, but we have always had an undeniable connection. He is the most wonderful, intelligent, and handsome man I have ever met and frankly I don't understand why he is with me. In high school he was always the big popular football player, and I was the little dorky band nerd. But for some reason it was a match made in heaven.


These are the people who mean the most to me so it's better for me to introduce them now so no one gets confused later on. 


Have a happy Thanksgiving!

A Day In The Life

It’s me, just you’re typical 18 year old girl trying to figure out what new adventures are about to unfold in my life. I graduated high school with pretty mediocre grades, very few loyal friends, and a reputation that consisted of both very true and very untrue things. I have a boyfriend who I feel is way too good for me, and a best friend who is practically sprinting down a dark and dangerous path. As for myself, I’ve got big plans. I won’t bore you with the details but I will say that these next four to six years may very well be some of the most stressful of my life.
Scared Shitless,
