To the jojapeach of 1999:
CREDIT CARDS ARE NOT YOUR FRIENDS!!! If you don't have the cash to pay for it now, you don't need it.
Take more silly pictures with your friends, even when y'all are just kicking it, during Senior Year.
Times are gonna change after Clinton is out of office. Brace youself for the drama.
Hip Hop is gonna be a hot mess, but hold on for some real appreciation for your beloved old skool.
DON'T PERM YOUR HAIR AGAIN!

Ask some napptural sistas in Atlanta what to do with that five months of new growth. (That was still a painful moment when I permed again.)
If you cut someone out of your life, there's a definite reason for it. Don't try to check on their welfare when they don't give a rat's tail about your welfare.
Lastly, you're not done growing and developing yet. You'll learn about yourself everyday...and the other people in the world, too. Have faith in yourself and humanity, but don't be a fool about it.
