I might still be a "baby" to some but we're all still learning.
You don't have to be the first to apologize.
You are not responsible for how people react to you.
But always apologize when you're wrong.
You are responsible for what you say and you should always apologize when you've done something wrong.
You don't have to please anyone.
The only person you should worry about pleasing is yourself.
Family isn't always blood.
I've had friends that are more like family than some of the people I share genes with.
There is nothing wrong with being alone.
Everyone needs to refresh once in a while.
But don't isolate yourself all of the time.
Everyone needs to refresh ONCE IN A WHILE.
Chunky highlights weren't cool in high school and they aren't now.
Seriously though, who let me walk around like a zebra for half of my high school years?
Life is too short to worry about what people think about you.
Who cares what others think if you like yourself for who you are?
Don't be afraid to take chances.
Life gets too boring if you're stuck in the same old rut.
Don't be afraid to admit you made a mistake.
To quote Hannah Montana, "everybody makes mistakes."
Spend time with the people you care about.
You're not guaranteed tomorrow.
Even if you hate pictures, take the stinking picture!!
Pictures are worth a thousand words.
Say I love you often.
Even if you're mad, tired, or upset, tell them that you love them.
Confrontation is a part of life.
I know you don't want to talk about it, but it NEEDS to happen.
It's okay not to be okay all the time.
Don't hide how you're feeling. Everyone needs to process.
Try new things!
Step out of your comfort zone and try something new. 9 times out of 10 you'll find out it's not that bad.
Calling is better than texting.
I'd much rather hear someone actually laugh out loud instead of receiving an "lol" text.
You are responsible for your own happiness.
If you can't make yourself happy, no one else can.
Ask for help when you need it.
You shouldn't be ashamed to say you need help.
Take life a day at a time.
Life is way too short to worry about the tomorrow's you have no control over.
