21 THINGS THAT I HAVE LEARNED AS I TURN 21.
by Vergel Gregorio
1. We are only teenagers for just 2555 days or for just 7 summers... so bleach that hair, cut that bangs, go join the dance troupe, confess to your crush or whatever the hell you want to do as long it doesn't hurt the people around u, including u.
2. Learning to master the art of deadma and rejecting people's opinion because you truly love what you are doing and it makes you happy... is hella important. You are way more bigger than your kapitbahay's chika!
3. People who hates you for being you or for doing what makes you happy are the people who doesn't have the courage to be themselves, they're just jelo XD
4. Good and real friends will always understand your NOs (except sa tagay XD)
5. Accept compliments politely. Say thanks instead of denying it. It is not just good for you, it will also make him or her believe in the power of kind words.
6. Stop the habit of blame throwing
7. You have no responsibility to make somebody change or better. It is your responsibility to make yourself better.
8. Always count your blessings. It will help you to realize that you have a good life. And it will help you when dealing with bad days
9. When having a rough day, allow yourself to feel sad and grief but just for a moment or for a period of time and move on, continue living.
10. Never settle for less. There are so much more in this world and you deserve all the best.
11. Bad days are important, you won't appreciate good and best ones without them.
12. Pretending that you can ace everything is so high-schooler. It's okay to admit and accept limitations.
13. The a huge difference between surviving and living.
14. You can always move on from heartbreaks, trust time who is known for having the ability to heal almost everything, and trust the process.
15. Allow yourself to be a beginner in everything thats new for you, again trust the process.
16. You can always start over.
17. Influence is so damn powerful. Surround yourself with friends who have positive impact to you.
18. WAKE UP EARLY!
19. There's a fine line between self love and self centeredness. I hope you're standing on the good and right side.
20. Time will always come that your squad/circle will live their own lives, pursue and become serious with their dreams and they will no longer be always available for you and I hope you're ready for that. Andddd always root for them.
21. And of course, my personal mantra... LIVE LIFE CREATIVELY! Living a creative life is a delightful way of enjoying life.
