1. People will promise to never leave you. They will. It’s okay to be sad when they do. 2. It is always okay to cry. Always. Find a bathroom, bury your face in your pillow, and let it out. Cry in the shower. Cry in the car. Cry when you need to. 3. Boys will flirt with you for a while and then ignore you. Then, they will flirt with you some more. It will be confusing. You have every right to stop putting up with it. 4. Pay attention to what people say when they’re angry. When you make up and they tell you they didn’t mean any of it, know that they did. Also know that they wish they didn’t. Forgive them. 5. Never pretend to be someone you’re not. If you don’t like tea and classic novels, don’t act like you do to impress people. If you don’t want to wear leather jackets and combat boots, don’t wear them to please someone else. 6. People will be mean to you; they will spread lies, call you names, and talk about you behind your back. Eventually you will realize that it is petty and stupid and not worth your time. You’ll be right. Move on with your life. 7. Your friends will not always be there for you. When you really need to talk, they will sometimes not want to hear it. That’s okay. Take a deep breath and remember all the times you felt the same way. Exhale. 8. You will wait and wait and wait for your first kiss and your first date and your first relationship. The anticipation will kill you. You will keep trying to find the right person in everyone you meet. Relax. There’s no rush. The best things happen unplanned. 9. Enjoy being young. Love that everything is spontaneous. As you get older, things become more and more scheduled out. Embrace the fact that you aren’t there yet. 10. Tell people how you feel. It will be terrifying in some cases and gratifying in others. It will create relationships and ruin them. But speak your mind, even if your voice shakes, because your thoughts may never otherwise be heard. 11. Sleep. If you go to bed late, sleep in. If you’re still tired when you wake up, go back to bed. If you can’t stay awake during the day, take a nap. Sleeping is a foolproof way of getting rid of your problems for a little while. Utilize it. 12. Talk to people. Talk to your sister about the guy she likes. Talk to your mom about her childhood. Talk to your dad about his favorite books. Talk to your grandparents about their families. Talk to your friends, talk to your pets, talk to the cute waitress at the restaurant. Learn things from them. Be inspired. 13. Always bring a sweater. Even if you think it won’t be cold. 14. Try new things. Eat a new food, try a new kind of juice, switch up the way you dress. You never know what you might end up loving. Life can get boring. Mix it up a bit. 15. Take care of yourself. Wash your hair with that good smelling soap you love. Eat fruits and vegetables. Drink lots of water. Go for long walks in pretty parks. 16. School is important. Try your hardest. If you don’t get something, ask for help. Do your homework. Show your teachers that you’re willing to work hard, and when it comes time to apply to colleges, you’ll be glad you did. 17. There will always be someone prettier, smarter, funnier, or more popular than you. The beauty of it is that it isn’t a competition.

Depression in summer is weird. It’s not dark and brooding, for me - it’s white and hazy and confusing. You feel very absent from everyone and everything. And all the light seems a little too bright for your tired eyes.

Advice from a Taurus

(Taurus Sun, Libra Rising, Libra Moon) How to tell if a Taurus likes You:

Taurus can have two modes: really approachable, or really shy and the mode you get honestly depends on the day, but if a Taurus likes you, you can guarantee they will play almost cat and mouse, never trying to reveal their hand. Taurus hate instability so if they feel like you aren’t showing them that you care enough they will probably try and move on, however this can often prove difficult. Taurus are suckers for love, not fast and fleeting, but real strong love and for them, that means getting to know who you are as a person. If Taurus like you they will ask a lot of questions about your life and make little comments here and there, trying to relate anyway possible. Taurus often are shy as well, so a sure way to tell if one likes you is if they try to avoid eye contact. They will look you in the eye for brief intervals, but if a Taurus truly likes you, they won’t possibly be able to look for too long. Finally Taurus love to have fun and look for people who can provide that, so if a Taurus laughs around you a lot and seems to be extra friendly with you this is definitely a good sign.

How to tell if Taurus Doesn’t Like You:

Taurus love to have a good time with whomever they are with, so if you are around one and they seem like they are hating life that’s definitely a sign they aren’t into you. Usually you can tell on their face how they are feeling, not ones to usually hide how they are feeling so if they look unhappy, they probably are. Also Taurus have a pretty good sense of humor, so if you’re cracking jokes and they don’t laugh, this probably isn’t a good sign that they like you. Most of all I as a Taurus can’t stand someone who seems pretends to be someone they aren’t so if you’re trying to impress a Taurus by faking who you are or your personality, just stop, you’re only making it worse for yourself. Just be who you are and Taurus can usually find something to like you for.

How to Flirt with a Taurus:

Like I said Taurus can be really approachable or slightly shy so the best way to flirt is just to be friendly and relate to a Taurus. Compliments are always appreciated (Taurus secretly have huge complexes) so a little compliment goes a LONG way (even a guy saying “I like your earrings” made me swoon one time). If you can make a Taurus laugh(which usually isn’t hard) you’re definitely off to a good start and if you seem intelligent and can carry a conversation then you’re golden. Personally I love when someone seems like they love living their life and can find happiness in whatever they do and all a Taurus really wants is someone they can be happy with, so if you can show them that you have a thirst for life (through adventure, art, music, etc.) you’ll land yourself a Taurus in no time.

Hope this helps someone out there! @sweetass-

Some days you just have to say ‘fuck it, I did what I could today’ and just let go of all the stuff you wanted to do. Life is too short to be angry with yourself for being human.
