Things to tell my younger self

Keep reading. Don't use school as an excuse to stop. It may take time away but you are organised. You can fit it in. The best part of reading is learning something new. Don't lose that.

Keep writing. Yes, most of what you write is terrible. But why is that so bad? Keep trying. Keep doing. Keep on.

It's okay to have an opinion. Some things swim in a grey area. Some things are black or white. If it's the latter, it's okay to choose. Being compassionate and open is good, but don't let that stop you from being definitive and exact in your expectations and principles.

Some people will not like you. This is life. Deal with it.

It's okay to be vulnerable. Try it now please, it'll make it easier for future you.... Future you is struggling a bit with this. 

Be kind. Be honest. Be open. This is important to you. 

Things get better..... They get worse too. But you get better at it. 

It's good to be witty. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise. 

Be creative. No project is stupid. Follow through and completing it will be enough. Don't worry so much about whether it's good or not. Fear of failure is a poor excuse. You can do it. I believe in you.
