The Steps to Success:
1. Stand up for what you believe in; unless it goes against what society does, in which case you can kindly shut the hell up.
2. Don't let anyone stifle your creativity. But don't be too creative, you won't get anywhere in life because art doesn't matter after high school.
3. Express yourself. Unless of course your self expression makes others uncomfortable, then you must hide who you are in favor of what's normal.
4. Focus on the good in the world, even though the media is constantly full of mass shootings and suicide bombings.
5. Get a good night’s sleep every night. But only after you've done 6 hours of homework, eaten a full meal (not too much, we wouldn't want you to get fat), attended an extracurricular, and spent time with your family.
6. Mental health is important. But it isn't as important as homework, essays, and standardized tests. School always comes first.
7. Don't disrespect your elders. Even if they have beaten you down mentally and physically your entire life, they're older than you and therefore smarter. Respect them.
8. Be confident in who you are. But don't be too fat, not too thin either. Don't wear a lot of pink, but watch how much black you put on too. It's okay to feel good without makeup, but a bit of eyeliner wouldn't hurt. No, not like that, here's a makeup wipe; you wearing way too much.
