Dear Kelsey,

• Remember that some people are more sensitive than you, and watch the sarcastic comments that come out of your mouth when you are around them.
• Don't text as often, especially when you are around other people. It's annoying and antisocial and just plain rude.
• Don't make religiously insensitive comments, you are offending people.
• Be more honest.
• Sometimes you have to deal with people that annoy the shit out of you. Just take a deep breath and take a patience pill.
• You have a lot of stuff going for you, try and appreciate it sometimes.
• Do what YOU want, not what other people want you to want.
• Take days for yourself, that's not always bad.
• Stand up for what you believe in. Always.
• Allow yourself to love. You might get hurt, but you might also be pleasantly surprised.
• Try and figure out what is in your best interests, and TAKE ADVANTAGE OF IT.
• Think about your future, but not too much.
