Bee-ing Succinct

Letter to Me

Brad Paisley wrote this song and I thought it had a good concept behind it.  If I could write a letter to me when I was younger, these are the points I would make.

• High school is not the most important time in your life and those friends that you make there you probably won’t talk to  that many of them when you actually leave.
• Ninth grade is probably the most important year in high school because it builds your foundation to your GPA.  You have to build a strong foundation.
• That I don’t care attitude you had with your dad, don’t really have that.  Because ignoring it then, makes it even hardier to deal with it in the future.
• Pick your major wisely.  Do something that you love and not something you think you have to do…and always keep your eye on the future.
• Go to Ole Miss, it’s the best place for you even though you’ll be accepted into many Ivy League and top colleges.
• Britney Spears music may be catchy but it isn’t really worth your time.  Backstreet Boys on the other hand; may have cheesy music now but will get better with time.
• Practice your clarinet more so that when you go off to college you will be just as good as you were in high school.
• You may disagree with your mom but she only has your best interest in heart…even though she’s not around that much.  She’s busy trying to make money to send you to college.
• That American Express card…use it sparingly.
• Enjoy your time with Howard because he will eventually change and turn into an asshole.
• Never second guess yourself; you have a good head on your shoulders.
• Befriend Lauren and Shelby earlier in college because they will be good friends to you.
• Stick with your blog because it made you happy. Just don’t write about work.
• Be happy and be yourself; people will love you for who you are.
