1. You made it to twenty four, that in itself is dope. 
2. You’ll probably never stop loving him…(well caring) and he probably will never talk to you again but that’s okay. It’s been 3 years now and…even though you still wear his jumper fuck it its comfy that’s why I still wear it.
3. Some people will leave without saying goodbye. It’s just how it is, they have there own ish to deal with. 
4. Your not the smartest person but you’ll understand it all eventually.

7.  Podcasts are truly your therapy and may introduce you to new friends haha. 
8. Black girls are magic, you are magic too. 
9.  Be a better friend to her (and others) Appreciate those that have been there for you aka stop making ‘seasonal people lifetime people’ I know you love to hang on to people but its okay to let go. As NERD says ‘When something’s yours And you let it go If it comes back to you It was yours all along’ – Maybe
10. The world is full of amazing places and beautiful people, go visit them again; China, Korea and Japan all this year, damn girl.

12.  The weights area isn’t so scary do you squats girl (thanks gym buddy)
13. Don’t project insecurities onto people its not attractive. (see image below) 


(FYI: If the person who sent me this ever come across this I am truly thankful for what you said this to me because It really was a reality check and I needed someone to tell me this. In the short time I hang out and chilled with this person I gave off a ‘negative vibe’ and I dislike that I did that.)

14.  Don’t be negative about yourself, your so f#cking worthy. (again in reference to the image above) 
15. Let them do them, its genuinely not your problem so you shouldn’t care. 
16. DO NOT send tipsy Snapchats to someone you think is fine…like really fine..like beautiful fine; its not a good look.
17. Jeremiah 29:11
18. Don’t take things so personally. 
19. DO NOT front on your feelings, if you feel a type of way; say it and move on. 
20. Take your iron tablets, so you don’t feel tired. 
21. You told the universe you hated your undergraduate pictures and the universe gave you a masters to do. It was probably one of the hardest year but you made it and I still cant believe I did (YAAS to my MSc graduate pictures too haha) 
22. Be a better older cousin, they look up to you and family is everything.
23. Seeing a panda was literally a life goal completed
