Dear Blank,

Salt. Savagery. Sometimes we need to.

1. Dear Blank,
You're not the Queen of England. Please call the gate and let them know you are expecting a visitor. No need to hold up the United States because you're too busy to call in ahead of time.

2. Dear Blank,
You have taught me to throw money at my problems until they disappear. It's been working, but now I'm broke and need to pay tuition :')

3. Dear Blank,
I am not good at hiding emotions, but luckily you are not good at reading emotions.

4. Dear Blank,
Yes, I'm a hypocrite. If it bothers you, close this tab immediately.

5. Dear Blank,
what are we

6. Dear Blank,
I'm sorry I get pissed off so easily. I just want my space. And my freedom. And my summer.

7. Dear Blank,
Why can't we be (just) friends?

8. Dear Blank,
I apologize for judging you too quickly.

9. Dear Blank,
Please forgive me-- I don't hate you, I just dislike talking to you. Or being near you for that matter.

10. Dear Blank,
I'm not your prop.

11. Dear Blanks,
I feel undervalued and unsupported sometimes. I feel selfish for feeling this way too. "Pity me" is probably all anyone gets from statements like these. I just wish there was some way I could feel warmer or more appreciated sometimes without asking for it. So yeah, pity me.

12. Dear Blank,
This is just a regular sized entry so that number eleven doesn't stick out like a sore thumb. 

13. Dear Blank,
I'm really glad we're friends.

14. Dear Blank,
Why do all the rocks in my life speak words to me that I wish I could just take with a grain of salt?

15. Dear Blank,
I guess I should take a spoon of my own medicine. I'll remind myself that I'll probably not get appreciation. Silly I want that. But isn't it freaking human?

16. Dear Blank,
I've never wanted to quit everything and drift away to an unknown place as much as today.

17. Dear Blank,
I suck. And I know it. But why? That I don't know. 

18. Dear Blank,
There's not many people I like being vulnerable to. Putting up a wall is hard 24/7. Let me be weak sometimes. And not feel reprimanded for it.

6. Always Question Yourself

"Don't let anyone change your dreams." Well, unless your dreams are uh... outdated . There's something magical and inspiring about individuals who follow through with every word they say. It takes a lot of willpower to stay driven and focused on something for an extended period of time. This is a skill we all rightfully strive for in certain aspects of life. However, some aspects of life deserve a little more flexibility. I was always ashamed to admit that I changed my life goals and ambitions quite frequently. I was dead set on becoming a research doctor for a majority of high school, but I suddenly reoriented myself for a future void of any lab science at all. Evidently, that’s okay- no one expects you to know what you want to do at such a young age. However, people do often tell us to “never let go of your dreams”. What no one really mentions is that it’s okay for your dreams to change. It’s always inspiring and warming when someone fulfills their c...

4. Don't Look Back.

I finally cleaned out my room. I have a tendency of holding onto everything I feel has sentimental value- including essays, notes from a favorite class, club shirts, receipts from new cafe adventures. Some of these things I still refuse to let go (minus some irrelevant and on second thought crappy high school notes), but I took a second glance at my mountain of school shirts I've been saving as memories. Was I really going to haul a bunch of Beta Club and Science Olympiad shirts with me to college? Did I really need that many shirts as backup PJs? No. As I participated in clubs and volunteered at major events, the t-shirts I got were a major award to hold onto and literally wear. But now, I feel as if high school memorabilia has nothing on what college holds. I won't say high school wasn't an enjoyable time. I definitely learned a lot and am super thankful for the crazy experiences I've had. I've matured slightly and met a variety of personalities; these things ha...

9. Sometimes Friendships Need a Little Activation Energy

It's easy to feel hurt when people don't reach out to us. Why waste time on someone who isn't putting in an equal amount of effort? Nine out of ten times, this logic is acceptable. However, sometimes the best friendships take a little extra effort to unearth. I recall a time meeting one of my best friends in school. The first time we met, we barely spoke. She didn't seem too interested in talking or hanging out. I wanted to get to know her better, but I felt vibes that she didn't care too much. At this point, perhaps I should have stopped- she evidently didn't   want to be my friend. I convinced myself that we probably didn't have anything in common or that she was too cool for me. Despite this feeling, I still made light talk with her in class. Then, when I invited her to hangout, I again got vibes that she didn't care about my time. Again, perhaps I should have stopped there, but something told me to give her another chance. And I'm glad I did. ...
