       ATTENTION
       By: Raven` Date: August 31, 2015, 8:13 pm
       ---------------------------------------------------------
       This letter, however long it may be, will be for anyone and
       everyone who attends school. Even homeschool. I have no idea how
       homeschooling works, whether it feels like its always school or
       always vacation. But, never the less, this letter is for you,
       too.
       Now, whether school is all round from you, already started, or
       is getting there, I wish you the best of luck. You all deserve
       the best in life, and sadly with a society like ours, the
       "bests" of life are judged by the education you have. But,
       that's besides the point! I want you to enjoy this school year
       and make it one of the bests you can remember. I want you to go
       out there, and ask questions if you're confused! Make new
       friends and make amends with old ones!
       And, specifically if you're homeschooled, I want you to work
       your butt off. I want you to walk into an office building, a day
       care, a hospital, anything with the knowledge that you obtained
       from your parents, or whoever is teaching you at home. I want
       you to stick your nose high in the air and be proud that you got
       where you are with the words and guidance you were provided,
       even if it was different then everyone else. Don't be shy in the
       future if someone asks where you went to school. Be proud of it!
       Now, all that said, I want you to know that toxic people aren't
       worth it. Your friend for years might be the closest thing you
       have, but if they start making fun of you and wrecking your self
       esteem in any way, drop them. If they start having terrible
       break downs and blaming you for everything ever, and meaning it
       with all their heart, kick them to the curb! Toxic people only
       hurt you. It may hurt at first, trust me. But it gets better.
       Remember, you are your own top priority. Nobody else should take
       number one on that list but you.
       Health should tie into that. People say that sports and school
       work are top priorities. No, they aren't. You can't do either
       without a healthy mind and body, or at least enjoy it. So,
       remember, don't over work yourself. Working with a headache will
       probably make it worse. So just sit aside and do something
       relaxing. Put a memo on your phone to remind you to finish it
       when your ready. Try your best not to procrastinate, either.
       Oh, another thing is to not worry too much! Sure, grades can be
       a big thing, and I don't know if its different for you, but
       don't become a worrywort and take it easy! Missing one piece of
       homework because you were in pain, sleeping, out with the family
       is fine. The only time to start worrying is when you do it on
       purpose. And big projects are given massive time spaces for a
       reason! Don't wait for the last minute! Time yourself, say
       thirty minutes a day, and get it done that way! If you think you
       need more time, stop by your project over the day and touch it
       up.
       Anywho, bottom line is that school, although academic, can be
       fun! Don't over work yourself, pace things out, keep toxic
       people out if you can and I can promise you that this year,
       2015/2016, will be a great year! If you ever come across
       something throughout the year that breaks this promise, come to
       me! I will help you solve it!
       Well, I don't think I got all the points. If you have anything
       else to add, go ahead and post it below. This should be a big
       booster for school!

       feel so happy and proud to be me even though most of the time i
       don't feel smart or good enough. especially with school, or the
       thought of graduating and going to college or getting a career.
