1. You can always handle what's put in front of you. It may seem impossible at some point, but it's really not.
2. If you can't do as above, there will always be someone there to support you. Even if they can't really pull you through the difficult time, they'll at least be a listening ear.
3. Speaking of difficult situations – moving far away from all your friends and family is hard. Period. Don't feel weird or inadequate because it's hard. You can be super social and outgoing and it still be hard as hell to make new friends and lay new roots.
4. It's ok to keep making new friends, and it is possible to maintain the same closeness with all your old ones.
5. It's also ok to let some people drift away. It happens. Everyone is busy. Likely, if they're truly your friend you could rekindle the connection if you really wanted to.
6. Trying new things is scary but worthwhile.
7. It's ok if you're scared of trying something new (to you) that seems lame and ordinary to others. Don't let that make you feel inadequate.
8. I've said it before, I'll say it again. Sometimes socializing is much more energizing than sleep. Of course you should adjust this knowing your own intro/extroversion.
9. Spending lots of money on traveling is worth it. Don't let yourself go in debt or become unable to pay your bills because of it...but if you splurge a little you won't regret it.
10. Don't be ashamed of what you do in your free time if it's making you happy. Just because it isn't what's cool or all over Instagram doesn't mean it won't make you happy. The only person who knows what exactly it is that makes you happy is you.
11. Don't stand when you can sit. Don't sit when you can lay down. Eat when you can. Sleep when you can. (And don't touch the pancreas).
This is all I can muster. I’m (hopefully) laying down for a few hours for the night. Goodnight, world.
