Sometimes, I feel like KZbinrs like myself feel as if they can't really learn a whole lot from other KZbinrs (because somehow we already know it ALL). I'm proud to say that I learned a lot from this video and I'm so incredibly glad that I took the time to watch it. Alexa, it's so insanely obvious that this wisdom you have has truly come from 21 years of trial and error, and that's so amazing. I found myself identifying with pretty much every single one of these points (even the female-oriented ones), and I just wanted to say thanks for posting this. Here's to many more years :)))

15 things I have learned in my fifteen years: 1: don't let anyone's words define who you are. 2: have ONE wallet. 3: listen to your best friend...if she is a good example. 4: BE YOUtiful 5: popcorn is the best snack on the go. 6: talk to yourself, it's healthy for you. 7: music Is a way to get away from life, use it. 8: be the kindest person you can be, don't be a bitch. 9: don't be fake, your friends won't like it, and I take that from personal experience. 10: change, it's good and healthy, do something that you hang on to, for me it's my hair, so I'm planning that next time I get my hair cut I'm chopping it all off to shoulder length. 11: you don't need a lot of friends, you just need a few really close ones. 12: learn or try a musical instrument, I didn't want to do piano but I loved it that I've been playing for 6 years. 13: get a fish. 14: wait to date. 15: last but not least be confident, or...just try.
