Throughout our youthful days, we fought for being in love and getting loved; handling multiple relationships and connections; keeping close friends and haters away; constant battle with stress levels; and dealing with procrastinations.

One thing that reminded us of our youthful soul - we cried a hell lot! For things that we want to forget, mistakes we want to set it right again, or memories that makes us smile.

As always, we got shoot down by those 'oh, so wise adults' words, saying we are incompetent to achieve anything if we cried over the most trivial matter. But...

Hello dearest adults,
Weren't you once like me, like us, like a youthful nineteen years old?

We may cry for the most meaningless thing, but that is us, being us - Young and Naive.

Experiencing "first" may be a painful process, or it may turn out to be a wonderful lesson. Adults will always tell us what is right and what is wrong. What we should do and shouldn't do. Just because they have walked through the paths we are stepping on. Yet, our curious nature still wants to experience, sometimes going against the normal way.

At the end of the day, who is living my life? You or Me?

So, forget about the standard right track our parents plant for us. Forget about getting 4.0 GPA under high pressure. Forget about maintaining the perfect image. Because screw that, I don't want a miserable life.

It is perfectly fine to pause, look around, and just, trying to figure it out.

10 years later, when you look back at the selfies you kept inside dropbox(if it still exists), you may have certain regrets. But one thing is for sure, you definitely did enjoy yourself during your youth.
