21

Hello there my lovely

Well its been 2 weeks since in turned the grand age of 

21

Let me tell you I had the best birthday.

A blog post on what i did is to follow and for all you Disney lovers out there it will be worth the read.

But for today's post I wanted to write something a little different

So with out further adieu

Here are 21 lessons i have learnt and some advise for my past self.

1:

You are going to change, it maybe be a little or a lot.
You may change one a year or once a day.
Change is progress

And  its okay

2:

Do it now !
 That little thing your putting off... the sooner you do it,

the happier you'll be

3:

Learn to enjoy spending time with yourself.
Your the only person you'r going to spend forever with,
so you might as well enjoy your company.

4:

Dont give your heart away too freely...

5:

However
no matter how cautious you are with your heart you will probably get burned. 

It happens to most of us,
your not alone

6:

You will loose friends.
Its the sad truth, you wont remain friends with everyone.
Even the ones that you thought you were super close to may leave your life
All i can say is be thankful for the time they were with you,
They came into your life for a reason.
And the ones that really matter stick around

7:

Treat others as you wish to be treated but..
 don't be surprised if they don't do the same for you

8:

Start taking care of your skin asap ( its never too early)

9:

People make mistakes, including you !
No body is perfect !
learn to forgive them and yourself.
 ( and if you really want to aim for perfect, aim to be the best version of yourself)

10:

If you lack confidence - fake it

11:

Find the fun in everything, makes life a lot more interesting

12:

Its okay to not have it all worked out, as scary as it is.

I'm still learning this but i know its truth.

13:
You cant please everyone not matter how much you try.
This goes hand in hand with, not everyone will like you and it sucks !!

14:
Travel !

15:
Dont be afraid to say no. Its your life and you deserve to live it how you choose.
Not how others want you to live

16:
Experiment with your look

17:
Not everything is always black and white... there are shades of gray
Maybe not 50 of them :P

18:
Don't wash your hair every day,
please stop this habit !
A girls best friend = dry shampoo

19:
Sleep on it.
 I've heard this said so many times but i have learnt its true.
Things always seem a little clearer after a good sleep

20:
Take the time every now and then to pamper yourself.
Your body will thank you for it

and last but not least
21:
A wise women once told me
'Don't sweat the small stuff, and everything is small stuff'
I try to remember this every time im worried.
Nothing ever turns out how you imagine it so
chill out :)

This took me so long to write as there's so much i have learnt in 21 years ( like walking for example :P )
I didn't know what to put and what not to put, so who know's we may see an extended edition of this.

Much love
