Mistofthesea86 has got to be my best guy friend (we see each other every day anyhow)....and on our birthday (yes, we have the same b-day, July 27th...I'm an hour older than him, teehee!) he gave me some of the best advice I've had in forever....
"Remember, when it comes to dreams, it is never 'if', but always 'when'." –Mistofthesea86
Whether it be my long life dream to be a professional screen actor (it WILL happen :p ) or Mist's dream to be a writer, or maybe even your dream to meet Mr/Ms Right or your dream of losing that 5 lbs :P , don't ever fret....because it is NEVER if...It is ALWAYS when...
Thanks, Mist....

Another excellent truth, at the rate I'm learning on this board I may never get all these books read.

Thanks, guys. Mist and I really are told a lot that we are more mature than most our age. Last school year (freshman year) a couple people thought I was a junior....even though I look like an 8th grader!! Teehee, I guess I was given the gift of maturity, but I look younger than I am, which I will most likely find a gift in the future. But right now, I don't like it much, cuz in my world, and at my school and crap people seem to lose respect for you the younger they THINK you are....it's so frustrating!

That is a good advice and something that we should all remember when we feel down. :)
I however believe another bit of good advice is, "Everything in moderation." So I would add to that advice one of my favorite quotes (even if I can't remember where it's from, and hopefully I'm not misquoting it).
"Put reality in one hand and your dreams in the other. Squeeze both tightly and then see which comes true." - ???
Dreams are a great target to aim for, but we should never forget to remain in reality while we're aiming. :)

"A dream is an unrealized truth. Reality, on the other hand simply sucks, but must be dealt with". Kalysius 1987. Pulled from my BOS.

Don't feel bad about looking young... I still get asked if I am 13... People sometimes look at my fiancee' Traz like he is a child molester because he is 23 and looks it...
When I began my senior year of High School many of the Freshman girls snubbed me, and passed by me in the hallway and muttered somethings about being a "new girl". (and freak... But I'm used to that) About the third day of school I got sick of it, and turned on a group of those preppy chicks who decided to start with me... I looked at them (evil gleam in my eye) and said "I am a F*&@ing Senior you morons!!!!!!! Leave me the Hell alone!!!! See, I don't give a crap about whether I am cool to you "little girls" because you haven't even hit puberty yet!"
(I was really irritated, and PMSing... And I was sick of being mistaken for being a 13 year old. I said more things, but they are in no way appropriate for this board.)

Teehee! That's great. Most of the time I don't get bothered by the younger people or people my age, it's the older people. I mean, a lot of my friends are older kids, but the adults at my school surely have their heads stuck up their asses to the point that it's funny, really. Simply because if they can be outwitted by a couple of 15 year olds, they really need to find a new job!
