You know you shouldn't have broken up with him when you were 13. You know he's been in love with you for the last three years. He still is. Ask. Him. Out. Now. Before he goes to LA. It will save both of you 10 years of stupid nonsense.

 Love isn't easy, take it a day at a time. God will be with you every step of the way.

 Quit wasting your time wanting that older guy because in a few years he will be engaged and you'll realize his friend is the better man.

 It was a bad idea. He didn't change. He lied again. Don't trust him twice...

 I wish you knew how beautiful you were and that you shouldn't have changed yourself for anyone. Don't every do anything to 'fit in'. Don't be scared of going away from home for college. Make as many friends as possible. You will forget him, but he will never forget you.

 There's beauty in the break down. In your darkest hour, you will find hope, and he's amazing.

 Don't spend money you don't have. Seriously.

 Create forever. Trust few, but those that you do, keep them close and don't let them go. Appreciate every moment. Above all else--just breathe.
