Growing up I was always around one theory of love that movies made you fantasize about. It being about that "one person" you'll meet and fall in love with, straight away, everything would be all simple and you'll be together FOREVER. That's one thing I knew was a full load of BS. Living in the small town I live in, I grew up with many different people and one thing that all had in common was how much they wanted that one person, love & serious relationships and that's where I knew I was a bit different from everyone else. I'm currently 17 years old and I had one boyfriend (which lets not get into depth with that one) but that's all. I watch all my friends or acquaintances jumping over bridges to have countless relationships and well, I never been that person. Mostly because I fall to easy. I'm the type of person who is relentless, stubborn and determine once I get my mind set on a person in which 99% of the time imitates the person. Which ends with that person running like a mad man away from me. But I fall into the same boat, just as much as everyone else. We all do crazy things for love and we all have the one person who we will do the CRAZIEST things for, just because we care that damn much. And it sucks. Always love yourself first and remember if that person clearly can't see how great you are, then who's loss is it... Not yours.

17 things I learned at 17.

1. Enjoy yourself. 2. People will say they will never leave you. It's going to happen... just be prepared when they do. 3. People are going to call you names, spread rumours and talk behind your back. Don't let that get you down, it's life. Not everyone will like you. 4. Friends aren't forever. You will lose and gain many. Just be careful who you trust. 5. School is important. Always try your best, ask questions do you homework. When it comes to university/college you will be happy you did. 6. Not everyone deserves to be forgiven. 7. Tell people how you feel. It will be terrifying in some cases. It will create and ruin relationships. Always speak your mind because your thoughts may never be heard. 8. Love your parents, always. As much as they make your angry, they are people who are ALWAYS there for you. 9. You are going to have your heart broken. Break ups happen but they'll only make you stronger. 10. Be yourself. People are going to love you. People are going to hate you. Regardless. 11. Who cares what people think. You are a beautiful person inside and out. 12. Eat healthy. 13. Take care of yourself. Get rest, stay hydrate and take breaks when you need them. 14. Life gets stressful and sometimes you just want to run away but trust me, it gets better. 15. Mistakes are okay. Everyone makes mistakes so don't sweat it. 16. Step out your comfort zone. Sometimes you have to try things that you aren't comfortable with and that's okay. 17. Be spontaneous.
