Things I Say To Myself On a Nearly Daily Basis

1) Getting up at 7am isn't really that bad. You could always have it worse.
2) Getting up at 6am isn't really that bad. You could always have it worse.
3) Eat the last of the food in the pantry even if it means eating stale, moldy food.
4) Saving money is important. We want a dog and an apartment next summer.
5) If you don't do your homework now, you'll only regret it later when you're rushing to finish it.
6) Don't get anymore tattoos/piercings.
7) Staying up late is for partiers, druggies, crazies, and college kids. I like being asleep by 11pm.
8) Don't forget to eat at least 2.5 meals today.
9) Pee at least 5 times each day but spend no more than 2 minutes in the bathroom. You don't have the time.
10) Heat is for the weak. Cold makes you strong, especially 39 degree nights.
11) Having a wrecked car isn't all that bad. It only shows how seasoned and apt to survival you are. Just like scars and Bear Grylls.
12) Just smile, breathe, and remind yourself what you do have in life.
13) Someone always has it worse. You only have it this way for a couple more months.
