学进去

Before I leave for college, there are 5 things that I want you to know:

I’m going to make mistakes. Making mistakes is just a part of shaping who we are, and just because I didn’t make some mistakes doesn’t mean I didn’t make others. It’s important to remember that my mistakes made me into the person I am today. 1．

I’m going to change, based on who I’m friends with. I copied a lot of my friends in high school. It just means that a part of who I am is a part of who my friends are. 2． While I’ll still be me, I’ll be carrying my friends everywhere I go.

3． When I’m crying alone on a Sunday night because I miss home, you won’t get a Skype call from me in tears. I won’t call you not because I don’t want to talk to you, but because I need to learn how to handle life’s heartaches without my mom and dad.

I will mess up, but I will do my best to make it right. I’m probably not going to be all honor roll student. I might lose my room key and I’ll probably spend too much money on useless things. 4． But I will always try my hardest to measure up to the daughter you raised me to be.

I’ll be okay. 5． As a result, the idea of entering what seems like a whole new world terrifies me. Despite all of this, I’m determined to become the one who’s “most likely to succeed”. You’ve raised me to do great things, and now is when I’ll show you that I can.
