You are a skinny white girl. No matter how sweet you think it might look, cornrows were not meant for you.

 Singing "That Darn Cat" is only amusing the first 47 times. After that no one can or will protect you from the duct tape your brother finds.

 Its okay to cry, its okay to be hurt. But dont cry for the same reason twice, dont let the same people hurt you again. Be strong, and dont let anyone bring you down. Its going to be okay. and if its not okay, its not the end.

 You should have waited.

 Stop being shy, and don't be afraid of your passion, because mom and dad say no. Just do it, but keep the back up plan, and don't go to AU. Go anywhere else. p.s on 11/15/05 don't go to practice.

 In high school, you may feel not confident, unpopular, not pretty or skinny. Girls will hate you and make fun of you. You will cry yourself to sleep. You will feel like you have no friends. But, once you get to college, you will find yourself and be better than ever...

 just tell her you admire her, tell her you can't sleep, nor eat, nor stop thinking about her any more look her in the eyes tell her... If you don't you WILL break your own heart.

 You'll join the military when you're 20 and eventually see war. By age 23 you'll have seen and done things that very few have. Sure things won't feel right after you get back and for years to follow, but you'll eventually end up where you'll find the man that brings the sunshine back into your life.
