First and foremost remember everything happens for a reason.
Because for every experience and lesson life has for you has its own season.
Do not let people bring you down, especially and most importantly you.
Do surround yourself with good people and great times will ensue.
Start reading. Read everything and anything. Read for class. Read for fun. Read for yourself.
Stop complaining. You are blessed with more than you could ever imagine. Life is a gift itself.
Start seeing a counselor. You know for what. Swallow your pride and ask for help. It will do wonders.
Stop chasing after women that are toxic. You know who I am talking about. It all ends in blunders.
It is okay to miss your friends, be happy for them. They have so much faith in you. Do not let them down.
It is okay to miss you friends, but make new ones. Good quality friends are everywhere in town.
Do not over text, Seriously, learn to understand limits. Most importantly do not over think.
Do spend time thinking about your future, because before you know it time will fly in one quick blink.
You are going to make friendships, and some will end that is okay, just do right by you.
Take a good look at the signs, if it is not working out, call it a day and stay friends.
You are going to make a lot of mistakes. Accept them and learn from them.
When a problem occurs get to the root of them, do not try to just cut the stem.
You are going to be rejected from several schools, and later accepted to two of them. It will be worthwhile.
No matter how much you feel hurt, defeated, crushed, etc...flounder and struggle with style and a smile.
Watch what you say to other people, you may be sweet 99%, but that 1% will hurt them like no other.
You will rise and fall, but remember at the end of the day be a good example for your brother.
Do not post your life story for everyone to see...never mind you will just ignore this part.
Act more, write more, take more pictures. They are forms of therapy not just art.
Pay attention in Anthropology classes because...well you will see when you get here.
You are going to have some hard times, that can be solve by one, just one beer.
Never be afraid of asking that cute girl in class out. You have nothing to lose, despite what you say.
Your family and true friends are going to be there for you, so be there for them night or day.
Make time for people you really care about, because one day you might hear that they are gone.
Go for your dreams, embrace the people you love, and learn to take problems head on.
Well that's all I have to say. Try your best, and most of all believe in yourself.
Sincerely,
A braver, caring, happier, and hopefully wiser self.
