1. Candles are fun and they smell nice! They totally set so many different moods of your choice too! Just be caareful with them, they do involve fires (see Google images to see how disastrous that stuff can be!)
2. Confrontation is often healthy, fun, exciting, needed and nasty. But, do it. Get it over with, just don't play the 'blame game' if it's with someone you care about.
3. Sometimes you've got to give a bit of yourself to a new friend/person in your life even if you're not exactly sure if they're trustworthy or not. It's hard and frightening and I know you've been betrayed in the past (I mean, who hasn't!), but it's gotta be done in order to get somewhere. I'm sorry if this backfires and said person hurts you and is just another monster to hurt your feelings and dent your trust in humanity... but, try it. One of these days you'll meet someone who makes you feel worthy and whom you feel you can tell absolutely anything to. And, without being hurt a little first and taking these risks, you will never find them.
4. Relationships are about taking risks and oftentimes you'll be scared to death but more excited and alive and happy than you've ever felt. Ever. It's just part of the ride or whatever they say, and you should let go and put your guards down and enjoy every moment of it. Who says it won't last? Maybe it will, maybe it won't. But, while it IS happening, let it happen and let it happen completely and 100%. Enjoy it! (I say this as I stare at myself in the mirror right now!
5. Okay, I know we all say at some point in our lives 'I'm never drinking again', because during the events of some crazy wild night, you went out and embarrassed yourself in front of everyone. Plus, you felt like crap. I also know, that this only lasts a short while for most people, but seriously, maybe you should write down your feelings toward that night and read them before you go out next. You don't want to forget them, because often we really truly DO forget exactly how bad we felt/were. I'm not saying never to drink again, but watch yourself! You're on your own when you're a repeat offender.
6. Don't flirt/touch/lean in too far/giggle too loudly with/to someone else's boyfriend/girlfriend. ESPECIALLY in front of them you unclassy whorebag.
7. If you're the youngest person at a party/gathering, you're not allowed to be the loudest or most opinionated person there. They will not like you.
8. It's fucking winter so fucking drink hot chocolate and eat hot soup!
9. We all know someone who's going through an extremely hard time, and it could very well be something you feel you cannot relate to or give advice on. But, instead of not asking how they are/bringing the topic up, to avoid awkwardness or running out of comforting words, you probably should. You'll find they'll more than likely appreciate you acknowledging their hardships and showing you care, than pretending nothing's changed!
10. People are stubborn and throughout life you'll have falling outs with people you care about, and sometimes you will know you're not the one in the wrong or the one who should be apologising first... but, the other person is too stubborn, and probably a little embarrassed, to be the first one to approach the other. That's when, you have to choose between losing them over whatever the falling out was about, or sucking it up and approaching them because you're the less stubborn/more mature one and gradually forgiving their stupidity.
