A Letter For My Fellow Teenagers
Alicia Sansone

To my fellow teenagers,

My teenage years are almost over. By next year I will be in my twenties, but that doesn't mean I can't give everyone else advice. I know how hard it is to feel left out, different, weird, exc. I actually left school because of that. After leaving school I have found vital information I never knew. Here are three steps I think every teenager should follow.

Step 1: Listen To Your Parents

It's hard to let your mom or dad tell you when to be home, where you can go and can't, when you feel like you are an adult. Actual the truth is no matter how much you feel like it your not. Your mom and dad always know what is right for you!

Step 2: Do The Right Things

When peer pressure hits do not give in! It will get you in so much more danger than you were already in. Saying no may make others hate. If that is true, they never needed to be in your life. A true friend doesn't push you into things you don not want to do.

Step 3: Just Say No!

No matter what everyone needs to keep the word "NO" in the middle of teenage life. If it's peer pressure, or guys always remember everything you do is your choice. Bad Choices can be made easily. The right choice may be a tough path but worth the trouble!

Just try to remember these three steps. The way you decide to make the choice will make up who you are. I know it is easy to say yes but you mean so much more than what others may see. Every little and big thing you do in high school may just lead to the way you act the rest of your life. From as little as what you wear to saying no will make you the better or worse person.

As you meet more and more people over the course of your college career, it seems to be a pattern that you will at some point have that one friend that doesn't live with you, but acts like they do. We call those people, "Honorary Roommates" and here are 11 signs you have one in your life.

Toilet Troubles

"So, usually I would never go on a Tinder date but when you are out with girlfriends and a hot Bosnian guy says he wants to hang with you and his friends, you oblige. We head to their apartment and when I realized I may pee my pants if I don't find a bathroom soon. I ask for the bathroom and a friend of my tinder date shows me to it and said in all seriousness that I was not allowed to flush the toilet under ANY circumstances. Having a few drinks--or five--I relieved myself to, nevertheless, flush the toilet. Within seconds, his bathroom was flooded and towels were laid out everywhere to catch the toilet water. To say the least, we were not invited back"
