Dear younger me,

You're probably scared of the future, you don't really know where life is going to take you, but you know it's going to take you somewhere... I want to tell you a few things you should know before you start to worry.

Take time for you...

I wish I would have known this sooner... Love yourself, hype yourself up, spoil yourself... It's not selfish one bit. Be you, and love it. Self-love is so important, and I didn't really know that until recently.

Go for it...

Don't spend life tiptoeing around everything you think is too risky, but still be cautious, not all impulse decisions are good ones. So if you want to cut your hair short, do it. If you want to go 8 hours away from college, go. If you want to dye your hair a funky color, do it (maybe not the whole head.)

Stay drama free...

I know that not every situation can be drama free, but you can definitely avoid it. You're going to go through a lot of situations with different people that may break you, but it's in your best heart not to let that create drama.

It's okay to be single...

Most of your friends will get into relationships but don't feel pressured to hop into one, you need to fully love your self before you can love anyone else... And plus being single is more fun!

Numbers don't define you...

Whether that be an ACT score, dress size, or your bank account, those numbers don't define you. You are yourself and you shouldn't change that at all!

You are AMAZING, BEAUTIFUL, and BRILLIANT... Never let anyone EVER tell you differently!

Love,

Me
