thou shalt not conform when thou could blaze thy own path..
A Letter To My Younger Self
If there is such thing as paralel dimension, I'd like to hav a chat with my younger selves, the younger selves who has yet to reach the stage I am now, and my older self.
To my younger self (18),
Try to keep ur eyes on the books than behind that boy's head, and u wouldnt hav wasted so much time over a punk.
Focus more and u'd hav reached the universities a lot more faster than to waste 2 more yrs at form six. Keyword is focus.
Dun waste money and apply for the Tar College application, cos u r gonna end up at the national university. Aint the best choice, but it's the foundation to being what u r later. Btw, u r gonna be iT literate, not language, smtg factual and square, not abstract. I'm so sorry. And that dream of urs? It will just hav to keep and keep. I'm really sorry.
U r gonna blame urself and ur mum over the decisions u made, but it is for the best and u always hav a way of working out a solution. So, take it ez on urself, k?
Let the other gals enjoy their short moments w the guys of their affections, they r all gonna settle for a different guy than the ones they keep on talking about as well as the lifestyle they keep on bragging on and on.
That strangers who wanna talk to u over the phones? Yes, keep doin what u've been doing, "Call again and my dad will call the police station". A sure fire way to curb stalkers.
All that talkative friends that u hav who seems to talk so highly of themselves and seems to hav mouth diarrhea? They'll learn to eat their words.
Finish Master Key To Riches instead of borrowing it over and over again. U'd hav started a spark for a journey a few yrs ahead, revel in it.
Try to steal more books from the library cos after a few yrs down the line, the books also aint worth stealing. Plus, they've upgraded the security to catalogue instead of the old fashion librarian-sitting-at-the-doorway.
Take ur time reading Mollie Pride cos after 9 yrs, u'd still hav it in ur possession. But I cant say the same for ur bible, it will still collect dust after 9 yrs.
Maintain that head, keep that curiousity spark and watever u do, dun change urself, cos u r great just the way u are. I know u r making mistakes left and right and that u r always mentally hitting urself on the head over small matters, but u'd turn out just fine.
World Peace and Be A Good Girl.
