What I learnt in my sixteenth year

A heart can break in more ways than just two, and you don't have I be in love with someone for them to do it

You can fall in love with more than one person at a time

Drinking water before bed won't prevent your hangover

Vodka makes people spread their secrets, bourbon makes them spread their legs

Scars don't really fade and people will still stare long after you stop noticing them

Socks with toes make you feel better

Cigarettes make your breath stink and weed just makes you hungry

Some things are better left unsaid, and some things better left not known

People won't like you how hard you try so fucking stop trying

Family isn't defined by the same blood no matter how much you may think that

Parents will say harsh things because they love you, but they do love you

Nothing is achieved by popping pills in an attempt to stop your heart beating

People will stare at you, always, get use to it
