You know what ladies?? it’s not a crime to know you’re a CATCH!! hell yeah you’re cute! Own that shit. Call yourself a goddess, take selfies in good light. Knowing you’re that bitch is sexy and it is not conceit as long as you also bring others up, and know that other women are also a frickin catch!! Knowing your own worth isn’t conceit because it doesn’t equal thinking of others as less. 

You deserve to spend time with people who make life better, a little more vibrant and less dark. You deserve to be with people who challenge your views and aid in mutual growth. You deserve to be around people who make things like going shopping a small adventure and a fun task. You deserve a friendship where there is trust that the things spoken between you will stay there, that only positive things are said about each other behind closed doors, where they look out for you and your best interests because they care. Friendships like this shouldn’t have to be rare, be picky until you find people worth giving your time to. These are the friendships that stick around. The ones where you feel unconditionally wanted and deserved, don’t settle for less.

as a current student who has two siblings in their thirties who both did degrees they felt they were ‘supposed’ to do, DO NOT go to university if you do not want to. Don’t go to college if you want to take your life in a different path. Don’t get a degree you don’t want to have. Do what YOU want to do. Not what anyone’s expecting of you. Do what makes you happy, otherwise you’ll end up like my brother, with an actuarial degree, law degree and currently completing medicine, 31 and still unhappy because he’s doing what he feels obligated to do instead of what he wants to do. Uni isn’t for everyone, make sure if you’re going, you’re going for you.

on the days I have little to no motivation I remind myself that who I am tomorrow depends on what I do today and that if I want to I can make myself a weapon. I can do anything I want because today holds unlimited potential, I’ve just got to work for it. I can be unbreakable, undefeatable, unlimited and to be these things I have to do. Because I can and I will. Your brain holds unlimited capacity to hold information so why not be able to do all the things you want? I have the capability to be multilingual, so what’s stopping me? I have the capability to run marathons, so what’s stopping me? I have the capability to ace my exams, so what’s stopping me? What’s stopping me? That question is my motivator.

life’s too short to be BITTER! spend your days LOVING and CARING and spreading this! Compliment ppl on their outfits! Message your loved ones to wish them a good night or morning when you wake up! Shout your friends lunch if they don’t have theirs or split yours with them! Love! that’s what life’s about!

most interesting goodbye I’ve heard is someone going to sleep and telling me that they look forward to seeing me tomorrow. And like,, that’s a beautiful way of looking at it, leaving today behind isn’t a loss, it’s anticipation for tomorrow. A goodbye isn’t so much sad for leaving you, it’s excitement at being able to see you the next time.
