Miss fpurteen... since you are old enough to give unwarranted life advice... I wanted to ask for some... In regards to anything, really. Art, love, work... I'd love to know your view on whatever you'd like to share.
Well! Itās currently 2 30 in the morning where im at and I canāt sleep, so gather round children ļ漚¬š“š»
It looks easy when other people do it! Doesnāt mean it is.
Sometimes your art is gonna be shit. Sometimes everything you make for a week is shit. It stings like hell, but they canāt all be winners and thatās ok. It makes it better when you get it right.
Become the version of yourself that you like spending time with! Not as in be the best version of yourself but as in donāt be so mean to yourself, encourage yourself and have fun with yourself, like crack yourself up. So youāre nice to be around for you. If you can do that then other peopleās approval etc doesnāt become as important and is just a nice bonus.
Donāt drink too fast! Thatās how you end up in legs up in the gutter. Itās easy to start chugging after a few martinis, but just make a habit to take a break drinking after a few no matter how youāre feeling.
You can wear whatever you want! I spent two years 100% ice cold butch and now I wear pink glittery kitten heels and paint my nails every day. And I can switch tomorrow to look like a member of KISS. What are people gonna do, call the fucking mayor? Bite me
Donāt say shouldāve all the time. Oh it was really sunny today I shouldāve done thisā¦ I acted so weird earlier I shouldāve been quiet etc etc.. either it wasnāt such a big deal or you get another go next time
Donāt interrupt people! I love talking, im pure yapper through and through. I could talk forever. But do your very very utmost at all times to not interrupt anyone. And if you do it by accident, make sure to circle back so they get to say what they were going to say. This also means do not let other people interrupt you! Youāre not a dick for saying hey I was in the middle of my sentence, give me second. Bite me!
Take care of your teeth, if you can. Floss every day. I had a pretty bad mental health period during uni and my teeth sufferedā¦ and that dentist bill was HEFTY. if you have it in you at all, prioritise your tooth health. You only got the one set.
Dance at home by yourself. Donāt look in the mirror. The more you do this the more youāll feel comfortable dancing at parties or clubs or the park or a wedding or on date or in life, and dancing is great. When I was 13 in school the girls in my class laughed at me during dancing at gym class and said theyād pay to see me to that again because it was so ridiculous. But you gotta understand that itās fine if itās ridiculous. I was the prime example of the kid whoās uncomfortable in her body and just dancing around the house all stupid helped. A lot. Trust me.
Change your socks every day.
Tilt your head when kissing and make sure not to be just still as a statue. Move your head a lil!
Donāt do drugs. I do mean that. Itās fun until itās not.
Learn how to cook for yourself. Start easy and work yourself up. Jamie Oliver is a real prick but I remember learning some good basics from his 30 minute meal shows growing up. If youāve got some lemon, olive oil, chili and herbs you can make most stuff taste good.
Lastly and most importantly, youāre gonna do so much embarrassing stuff in your life. I will still wince randomly thinking about things said to crushes or during hookups or social interactions ten years ago. Truly just strange stupid baffling terrible gross stuff. Thatās the price you pay for any human relationships. Itās a learning curve. Donāt be so afraid of being ashamed that you avoid new people
