I have been thinking lately about the term of being young and having fun, enjoying your youth while it lasts, do what your body can handle before it can not. All I have been hearing lately is how i need to take it all in and have fun because one day it will all change. Here I am telling everyone how I wish I was older, I want to be in the future and skip all this being underage stuff and young because it is holding me back. I just want to grow up in a way, and not all because I just want to be 21 so I can go out and have fun, but because I have always felt more mature for my age. Being 19... almost 20 it is hard to date older guys, not because of lack of personality, attraction, or intelligence, but simply because of my age.
I have had my fair share of being young already, a little too much all a little too fast.
So here is my advice to you young ladies struggling and growing. To those girls who are hung up on the "love" of your life, who lack self confidence, and just don't know what to do with your life.. I am telling you. IT'S going to be okay! People will say what they want about you, think what they want about you, and beat what they want out of you. All you need to be is true to yourself and do what YOU want. I think we all forget that a little too much. Being selfish with your life is 100% OK.
The things I am about to write will definitely have people assuming I have done and experienced all of these situations. I am not going to sit here and try to persuade you that I have or have not, cause that would be wasting my time. (Hint: That is me knowing who I am and not caring what others think)
Go out, go out with your friends, with people you trust and love to be around. Don't stay home over someone who just broke up with you over something stupid or not so stupid, the more you are down about that dumb ex you will have in 2 years the more you will regret missing having the time of your life. Have fun, experience everything you can while your young, while you have that excuse. I'm not saying go out and get addicted to drugs, alcohol, or sex, I'm just saying that it's okay to experience it. Yes, being able to say NO would be the most valued answer, but lets get real... We aren't in the D.A.R.E program anymore. Go make out with that guy/girl that you have been keeping an eye on them, hell go sleep with him, make your own choices...
Being a slut... You will learn to accept that it's okay! In actuality you thinking your a slut is probably for the better. The fact that you are aware of your choices leads to knowing how to be safe, and experience all the things that will one day make your future husband a proud man. But please if your going to be a slut, be a classy one and pick the right ones to slut it up with. People can be vicious so if you can't handle the heat than don't put yourself in the fire. Do not let some crazy ex-boyfriend threaten you about how they love you so you should fuck him to keep him around, or to keep you from someone else. The truth is, if he's doing that, most likely he ain't getting shit and you are.
DRUGS DRUGS DRUGS, I have love for some drugs. Including Tylenol PM and Ibuprofen..... Oh hell... Smoke some pot, figure out what everyone is talking about, hopefully you won't like it and mother will be proud, but if you end up loving it, It's healthier than soaking your liver in alcohol on a weekly basis. Ecstasy, oh the drug that makes people crazy happy, in love, and just know the beauty of the world, well it will fry your brain, and CAN kill you. So be wise when popping that small luminous light year of a time. Coke, as in cocaine, you will never get a better high than the first. That's me saying, only do it once before you get addicted and have no teeth, and look like skinny crack whore. Those are the mainstream drugs that are easy to get and popular to our generation. Other drugs, don't mess with they wont do anything but kill you make you broke, and ugly.
Alcohol, oh what good friends we are. Alcohol is awesome, I am not going to lie to you. But its all about what you choose to do when your intoxicated,... oh wait your brain and body does that for you, you have no control ... watch out. Go out and let loose, you will laugh about it in the morning... Usually. So have no worries, going into it thinking its gonna be an awesome night, leads to an awesome night. Don't be the dumb one who drinks and drives or lets someone drink and drive. Because you wont be laughing in the morning.
Girls, your young, looking for someone to be in a relationship isn't that guy who is just going into college who you think loves you, or that guy you think can be a potential interest. Boys are young and stupid... SO if your looking for something more go for an older guy, a couple years older. But in most cases even that wont work because you guys are at different stages in your life and the fact that your that much younger than him will have his friends in his ear saying no, his family telling him that's a bit young, and him subconsciously just wanting to have sex and fun with you, because he thinks that exactly what he expects from you. So in the end, be sober and yourself when around someone you like and care for, trust me I have been there.
Guys, you will always be guys. But that doesn't stop us from loving you. I have no advice for you really because I don't think half of you even deserve to know what we think. You know what we think from the start, the fact that you don't care just makes you stupid. Just don't mess it up with the right one. You will know when its right.... and it will suck when your the one staying home at night because she was fun and happiness that filled your heart.
Being young is awesome, harmful, and will only come around once in your life. So go out there and LIVE people. I am telling you, its awesome to be young and naive. So take advantage of it while you can, but don't too it all at once, because you will end up like me, sitting here writing while everyone is at the bar and putting down a cold one. And if you are reading this, you can relate to some things, or can absolutely disagree and be appalled but what I have to say, because you aren't going out doing the things I preach.
STAY REAL WORLD.
