23

Hello 23 year old Jade. I hope you're not as crappy as you were when you were me. The 19 year old confused little lady who's been going around in circles trying to figure out what to do and what not to do with her life. You were scared as hell before the new school year comes. You didn't know what was gonna happen so you ended up trying to solve everything on your own. I have an advice for you now that you've finally grown and graduated(I guess?? I hope?).. well.. Just. Just go out there. You may not be the person you want yourself to be because you think everyone else is holding you back. Just don't think about them. Okay? You may feel like a loser for not being the person those authorized person"s" wanted you to be. But at least you have the comfort knowing you have survived. Let it flow. Don't let another opportunity pass you by. If something comes your way, just grab 'em. But be careful. You know not everyone or everything is worth your whole effort. Choose what's worth the sacrifice. I know you're good at that. Open your heart. Be yourself. :)

-19 year old you.
