17. You will be betrayed by the one person that swore they would never hurt you. Learn to let go and walk away.
You’re better off without someone who doesn’t have every intention to stay in your life anyways. It’ll hurt, but walk away and don’t look back. It’ll only hurt worse the next time they decide to leave, so don’t give them that option.
16. It’s okay if the only thing you want in that moment is your mom. She’ll be there.
No matter how old we get, sometimes all we need is the nurture and familiarity of our mom. You will always be her baby, so when you call your mom up at 2a.m. when nothing feels right, she will hold you over the phone like she used to in her arms as a weeping child. We never become too old to need her.
15. One failed test won’t determine your future.
Failing a test doesn’t mean nothing will become of you. That grad school you’re trying to get into won’t deny you for one bad grade. Think of all the times you got grades that made you want to pull your hair out; you still got into college and life went on. I bet you don’t even remember the failed tests you took in high school. Forget about it and do better next time.
