I know right now you are overwhelmed with college and senior things. But it will be worth it. You are excited about a fresh start, don't forget that. You are a legal adult now and you feel like everything came at you at once. Just remember to breath. Take everything day by day, one step at a time. This letter is a reminder of what is important when life gets crazy in the adult world you have now entered.
You are busy with managing time between friends, family, school and a relationship. Don't forget to make time for yourself. You love coloring, reading, and writing! Take time to go get your nails done or buy yourself a cute top. Self-care is the most important thing, so treat yourself in whatever form you desire.
Be sure to take a moment away from your phone. We get so invested in it all that we forget what crazy beautiful world we live in. Challenge yourself to be off social media for a day or a week. Even just simply turn off your phone. You got this.
Travel the world, make your dream job happen. Save money and start planning a trip, you've always wanted to go see the world - so do it. Experience and endure other cultures.
Grasp all the learning and opportunities while you can at school so you can make your dream job of living in New York writing for Vogue or Cosmo happen! Internships and study abroad will help!
Continue to exercise and eat well. This is important for you, being that you have a disease. You have to stay healthy.
Lastly, I'm aware you are feeling a lot of pressure - the pressure to fit in, the pressure to have money for college, being successful. It doesn't happen instantaneously. It takes time, be patient. Things happen for a reason, things come and go. You just have to find a balance between everything. I'm sure you're doing just fine.
I'm proud of the person you've become and the continuous growth and effort I see daily.
