These are the mantras to live by!
1. Your looks don't define you.
You're the one who's gone and colored her hair electric blue.
You're the one who's decided only to wear sports wear to college.
You're the one who's decided to wear red lipstick to college every single day.
But crazy blue hair doesn't mean that you're a punk the same way that
wearing red lipstick to college doesn't mean that you're easy. You choose to
look the way you want to because it is who you are and it makes you happy!
2. Be adventurous and keep an open mind.
Perhaps the best part of being a teenager is that you have plenty of time
to learn from your mistakes. Really, this is the time when you should explore -
be it in various hobbies or learning a new skill. Mastering a new language,
Understanding the art of baking or perfecting your
mountaineering skills - there's no stopping you now!
3. Keep a diary to write your innermost thoughts.
Heartbreaks, anger towards people and your innermost thoughts;
there's lots going on in your life. While you talk nineteen to the dozen with
your best friend, there are times when you just need to vent. Keep a diary
(and keep it locked, if you must) and write down your innermost thoughts.
It's not just us, but even science says that writing down your feelings makes you feel better.
4. You are different and that is awesome!
You're not a part of the herd; you're the one who's just decided to
walk away from it. Being different is awesome and don't let anyone tell
you otherwise. Start your day by standing in front of the mirror and telling
yourself that every single morning. Don't criticize the way your eyes are or
how you don't have a clean and clear skin! Be confident to
look at the mirror and bring on your #ReadyFace game!
5. Break-ups are a stepping stone into adulthood.
This is the time when you will experience love for the first time and this is
also the time where you are most likely to experience your first heartbreak.
Everything you would have read or heard about break-ups will turn out to
be true; you will feel like crap and want to stay aloof all the time. But just
give yourself enough time to mourn over it and then move on! Chin up girl!
6 It is okay to cry in public.
Overcome by a sudden wave of nostalgia or still nursing your broken heart
and cannot control your tears? It is okay to cry in public. No one
will think less of you if you have a like sobbing fit once in a while.
7. Keep your friends close and your moms closer.
Your mom might feel like your biggest enemy during your teenage years and
you will feel that only your friends understand what you are going through.
But remember this, your mother has gone through the same phase herself.
Bond with her and chances are that she might actually help you out with a few tips and tricks.
8. Sometimes all you need is cake, ice-cream and a rom-com.
On days when nothing makes you feel better, just slip into your favourite
pair of pajamas, take a giant tub of ice-cream and watch the most overrated
rom-com you can find. It is okay to have a bad day but is not okay to end the
day on a bad note. You deserve some pampering.
Do whatever it takes to change your mood.
9. Your body will change and it is okay.
You'll have to start dealing with things that you never thought you would
have to deal with. Body hair, acne, unwanted attention and even menstrual
cramps; are all issues that you'll have to deal with. They sound intimidating
at first but you'll learn to tackle them like the diva you are!
10. Do not give into peer pressure.
You'll see a bunch of your friends doing things that you would never want to do.
Fad diets, incessant partying or even experimenting with alcohol - if you
do not want to do it, don't! Don't let your friends coax you into
doing something that you are not comfortable doing.
