I turned 17 back in September and I wanted to write this post in celebration of me being a step closer to (young) adulthood. Unfortunately, school got in the way so I dragged my blogging schedule.... until now. I planned to call this post '16 Things I've Learned at 16' but I think it's way too lte for that so being the adaptable person that I am, I decided to change the tittle and voila, it suits the momentum and current euphoria. So yeah, here it is;

16 Things 2016 Has Taught Me

1. Expect nothing. Learn to accept everything that is being thrown at you and try to make it work.
2. Always open yourself to new things. You never know what's gonna come through that door.
3. Being alone is okay.
4. YouTube is a hell hole.
5. Don't go to YouTube unless you've finished all of your work.
6. DO NOT PROCRASTINATE!
7. Get your shit done before the weekend.
8. Eat more carbs and moisturise. Your brain runs on glucose and you have a dehydrated skin.
9. Drink more water and stay hydrated.
10. Don't. hold. your. pee.
11. Sometimes you just have to raise your voice.
12. Double-cleanse every night. Always.
13. If you can't say it, write it out.
14. Get a monthly concession bus pass so you can take a long bus ride during those lonely nights.
15. Never feel hesitate to ask for your rights.
16. You are your best-est best friend.
