Shirly...
I'm glad that it sounds like you had a nice thanksgiving break. This may be the last time that I can write to you in a while, since my class is ending next week. To be completely honest, I have really enjoyed getting to know you through our blog entries back and forth. I think you are a very sweet, ambitious and intelligent girl from the time I have known you. Never let anyone tell you differently. You are very mature for your age, and I think you may realize a lot of things that it will take your peers a very long time to understand. I am going to try to give you a few words of advice, so take them as you will. First and foremost: enjoy your youth and don't be in a hurry to grow up. Being your age was one of the hardest times in my life, but trust me, things will get easier. Always be yourself and never conform to what someone else wants you to be. Being different, in the end, will make life more interesting. Don't compare yourself to other people. You can never be someone else, so whats the point in thinking about it?!?! I wasted too much time doing that. You are no better or worse than anyone else! "Patterning your life around someone else's opinions is nothing more than slavery." Cherish the friends you have right now because they will last you a lifetime. The friends I have made here are really amazing, but they are nothing compared to the people that have known me my whole life. Your relationships with other people help you understand more about who you are. Don't fall into peer pressure. I wish someone could've talked some sense into me a long time ago. Remember, you can only depend on yourself. People are naturally selfish beings. Believe in karma: what you do will always find its way back to you, even if its in another form or in another lifetime. And finally, value what's most important in life. The things you really need you probably already have. Material possessions are meaningless objects. They are the producers of greed and envy.
Shirly, you probably already know most of these things, but I hope you will take them to heart. I will be checking these blogs we have been writing every once in a while, but not as frequently as I have been. It would be really sweet if you could write me back at least one more time, if that's possible. I would like to hear your thoughts, and if you have any advice for me. Always stay true to yourself.
-Kaisa
