That zit on your cheek literally does not matter
Skipping class one time will not ruin your entire life
The boy you’re trying so hard to impress will mean nothing to you in a year
Bring coffee to school and ignore people who make fun of it
Bring a snack, too. Don’t care if people hear you eating in class.
Being popular isn’t and will never be something that seriously defines who you are
Doing/not doing drugs doesn’t make you cooler than anyone else.
Talk to the kid sitting alone; even though it may not change your life it could drastically change theirs
Participate in school events
Wear whatever makes you comfortable
Nobody will laugh at you if you sit alone at your lunch table for five minutes
Don’t wait 20 minutes to text someone back just to seem cool
Tell your friends how much you love them
Cherish your free textbooks… seriously
Help confused freshmen, be nice to them. Remember how much you would have appreciated it a couple years ago
Compliment the other girls in the bathroom
That fight you had with your mom really isn’t that big of a deal

Remember that life does go on
