He isn't worth it. Don't waste anymore time on that jerk, there are much better guys out there for you.

 It's good to love your individuality, but don't rebel just for rebellion's sake. If you deliberately do the opposite of what everyone else is doing, you are as controlled by convention as they are. Be true to yourself.

 Serve your country in either the military or peace corps. Join something bigger than yourself, you will be better for it.

 Don't lose yourself trying to be just like that girl he's dating. Someday he's going fall for who you are. Because you're amazing.

 thank you for getting on the plane, P.S. mom was right, bring extra socks and underwear.

 Tell the truth. Your parents are smarter than you give them credit for, and they will always be more angry at you for lying than for whatever it is you did.

 Don't break up with him over facebook chat. You will still love him years later.

 For the world was once filled with brave young men and women now has turned into a paranoia shit show. People who don't know you, will end up judging you about things that were never true in the first place. But in your mind, you know the truth, you know the real you.
