always go with black.
always shop in the need of costumes.
never be afraid of heels.
never care more than you're willing to hurt.
its ok to not wash your hair sometimes.
and wear sweats here and there.
you don't have to like everyone,
because not everyone is going to like you
and that's ok too.
things work out,
and sometimes they don't.
and you can't be anyone except yourself.
