Dear Boo

Dear Boo,
So I have to say I'm extremely jealous that you have the nickname Boo. However I don't think it'd suit anyone else, seeing as we've grown up with it being yours. I do have to say I think it's the wickedest nickname out there and I think I'll just call you that always from now on. I'll have to get your phone number and put it in my phone as that ;)
How's life? I feel like I hardly ever talk to you (Which is partly true). Sorry about that. Life gets insane and you can ask my friends in NL....I hardly text them back half the time. I do talk about you quite a bit though in NL. You and Devon and Nevada. My three talented cousins who are the most beautiful things in the world and quite the trio. My roommate has similar facial features as you and I love seeing her because she reminds me of you. You're both stunning and some people may call you cute, but take that word and switch it for stunning, because really you have this glow about you that kind of goes past everyone else.
I can't believe you're almost done school. That freaks me out so much....means I'm getting way older than I feel. But that's exciting for you and I'm excited for all the things you have ahead of yourself. And a little piece of advice....who cares if you don't know what you want to do with your life after you graduate. I had no clue. I went and explored for a bit, thinking I knew what I wanted to do, only to settle for something I'd never even heard of. Took my first linguistics courses and hated them. I really did....but I stuck with it and I absolutely love it. Don't judge things from the first impression is what I've learned. Sure you might not like it at first, but you might learn to love it. Give it a few shots. I never would've found my best friend if I hadn't given her a few times.
However don't give dangerous things a few tries. Stay away from those things. Especially boys ;) They can really mess with your life if you're not careful. Guard your heart they say...I don't even know what that means exactly, but I think it's best we watch over ourselves, listen to our family and friends about what they say about who we're hanging out with. An outward point of view is a lot more valuable when they're not bilnded by whatever you may be blinded by.
So in closing...travel the world if that's what you want to do. There's a million and one possibilities out there and you should take them all. You only live once right? The younger you are the easier it is to do a lot of these things. Be careful. Keep in touch with your family and keep your relationships strong. If you hate high school, remember it's only a few hundred days till it's finished and you'll never step foot into a high school again (unless of course you become a teacher). What's here and now will vanish before you can even reach out to grab it. So enjoy it. Make every day count.
Love you.
Sincerely,
Yvette
