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 outdated .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...

5. First World Problems Are Still Problems

Maybe the title is a little misleading. No, not being able to send group snapchats was not exactly the "first world problem" I had in mind. By "first world problems", I literally mean problems faced by regular humans living in the first world. ~ I wish we could compare our pains, but we really can't. Ever. I'll be honest. I've been down in the dumps, but haven't we all? I often downplay whatever I'm dealing with because I know there are bigger problems people face in the world. With this mentality, I've lived in a shallow pit of self-loathing, calling myself petty and ungrateful (which I still cannot deny). But why I am in this pit in the first place? Because I could have ended up in a place much worse. And that's why I downplay everything I've ever faced. I felt as if it didn't matter because things are much worse for a large percentage of the world. With that in the back of my head, my mind jeers at every challen...

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...
