5 things to write on your mirror, right now

 

Check these out, too...

  • Journal it out! 10 reasons to write down your thoughts
  • We wanna know...your most embarrassing school moment
  • How can I turn my attitude around?
  • Get your draw on with the prettiest coloring book of the season
  • YOLO or "Oh, no"? When taking a risk is the right thing to do
Those days when you just feel down are no match for you anymore, chica.  We’ve come up with the perfect sayings to get you cheered up and ready to take on anything. Watch out, Valentine’s Day!


The only opinion that matters is your own.

Nobody should have the power to negatively affect how you think of yourself.  Once you know that you’re beautiful and know just how fantastically worthy of all that you want you are, everything becomes available. Who cares what that jealous girl thinks when you’ve got your own back?

Fake it ‘til ya make it.
Your confidence doesn’t come from your physical appearance of validation of those features. It may seem like it when you see pretty girls who just stand out as being sure of themselves. But, it isn’t based off of them being “pretty.”  Oddly enough, it radiates from within.  As soon as you’ve got it set in your head that you’re gonna’ go out and rock it, you’ll get that fantastic aura.  Next thing you know, you’ll be that oh-so confident girl that everyone else admires.

Try and succeed or try and fail. Either way, you win.

If things don’t go your way, then you leave with a life lesson.  Sometimes not getting what you want leaves you better off in the end, and the feeling of never knowing what could have happened can sting you more than avoiding the 5-percent chance of it all ending poorly.

Anything is possible
Often it becomes too easy to take yourself out of the game when you’re worried about how it may end up.  You can be so close to getting what you want and then poof! You get a mixed signal from a boy you like or a predicted storm on a day of your best friend’s birthday party.  Wait it out, things work out right when given time.
 
To do: Be happy!

It’s easy to get caught up in specifics.  Specifics can fall in and out of place too easily.  Make your goal to be happy. When your goal is simple, and all you want is to be happy, it’s more difficult to let little things get you down.

My parents are super strict, I have good grades, but when it comes to hanging out with people who I havent seen in forever, they get all weird and wont let me go. What do I do? :/

I really like this boy, and he really likes me, but he lives seven hours away from me! He and I both have facebooks, but he doesn't get on a lot, and I don't have texting on my cell. How can we communicate?




Hey Girl,

Long-distance relationships can be so hard, I feel ya! I think the most important thing is that you guys schedule times to be online (Facebook) so that you can plan ahead! You should also try out Skype or Viber, which lets you make free phone calls online!

I always write "Northern Downpour" on my mirror, whenever I see it I think of the song "Norhern Downpour" by Panic! At the Disco...it always lifts my spirits. Smile
