Note 29

Bad hair days will come more often than good ones. Also, you will look back at the popular trends like getting two tones in your hair at 16 and at 40 you will laugh at yourself. Hopefully.

Note 28

You don’t have to care about what others think of you. People always judge other people, it’s the way of the world. Realize the people that love you are the ones that matter, all the people who want to stir up trouble are not worth the effort of worrying. You will be beautiful, and determined just like all the other women in the family. 

Note 27

I hope your life is filled with books. Piles of them. Because you can find so much in the pages of a book.

Note 25

Dream big about your future. Dreaming means that you have inspired yourself for a better situation. Then, after dreaming, start doing.

Note 24

Don’t drive like me. 

Note 23

Waste time. It’s really the only way you will realize how precious it is and how much you can accomplish.

Note 22

It’s okay to be terrified. It’s okay to be nervous. Just know that most people, unless they have taken the time to understand you, won’t notice how scared or nervous you are, unless you let them know. 

Note 21

Just because you preface doing something rude with an apology or warning, it doesn’t make it any less rude. Remember that.
