I graduated from high school five years ago. In Peru, you spend five years in high school - five years to learn basically about life and yourself. I mean, of course you learn about literature, math, art, history and so on, but according to my experience, you basically learn to trust in yourself, to build relationships and, of course, you learn about drama and how to deal with it.
Now that I think back to my time in high school, I can truly say I miss it and I love the time I spent there, but I still wish someone would have given me some advice.
1. Time Flies
I remember being a freshman and wondering what it would feel like to be a senior. I remember always thinking to myself I still had five more years, which is why I probably didn't realize time was passing and none of the days gone come back, ever. I just wish someone would have reminded me that.
2. Don't Worry, Drama ISN'T the End of the World
If I said there was no drama during my high school years, I'd be a total liar. Of course there was some friend drama, boy drama and certainly family drama. Now that I think back and see things in perspective, I would tell to my 14/15-year-old-self not to worry so much about issues going on in life because no matter how hard you try to avoid drama or to patch things up, you can only control yourself and no one else. With time, things will turn out fine and you do not have to spend your days worrying so much.
3. Don't be afraid to ask for help!
I think I was always kinda friendly, and I'm the type of friend who will be there no matter what. I can honestly say I am blessed to have found marvelous people who I can call friends, who are there for me when I need it. I was facing some tough times during high school because of family issues, and all I would do was deny it. I felt that I couldn't tell anybody, including my friends.
However, once I graduated, my BFF and I were somewhat roommates, and there was this one night when we talked about everything that was going on during high school. Just like I was having some trouble trying not to be depressed, she was having trouble, too. Then I realized both of us had been so busy pretending to be OK and not actually showing our emotions, so much so that we kind of lost ourselves in our inner battles.
That was when I realized she could have been there to help me if I would have let her know, and I could have been there to help her, too.

We see a lot of random stuff on Facebook all day long. Now that people's food pictures have mostly moved over to Instagram, we mostly get news, viral videos, baby photos, selfies - those sorts of things.

Having a vagina is a full-time job. Firstly, and most superficially, there's the aesthetics of it. (If you're waxing or shaving, you're looking at some serious commitment, from actually doing those things regularly to exfoliating and sometimes indulging in the guilty pleasure of squeezing an ingrown hair.) But even more important than what your pubic hair looks like is maintaining your vaginal health, which can be stressful and confusing when you're bombarded with information and misinformation about what looking after your vagina actually entails. We're tasked with yearly pap tests as soon as we become sexually active or turn 21, but aside from that, it can be unclear what to do with your bikini area between doctor visits.
If you want to protect your vagina from communicable illnesses, you must use contraception. There is no other way to prevent the transmission of STDs than by using condoms, and even then, you're not completely protected, as illnesses like herpes can be passed on through skin-on-skin contact, if the virus is active. Having unprotected sex is something that should only be done with a serious partner, after you have both had STD checks, which you should both continue to have routinely as part of your annual exams.

How many hours a day do you spend watching makeup tutorials and OOTD videos on YouTube? Admit it, more than you can actually count.
Beauty gurus have changed the beauty industry - they basically taught me how to do a smokey eye and the PERFECT red lip. They are lifesavers!
There are many well known beauty gurus out there, but today, we decided to shine the spotlight on some gorgeous girls that have just caught our eye - trust me, you'll be hooked on their videos in no time.
Everyone in the world has embarrassing moments in life, even the cool kids (no matter what Echosmith says). Hey, the celebs do, too - plus it's always broadcasted! And then there's me, a simple outcast with one-10th of a social life, but no biggie. There is absolutely NO WAY around them whatsoever.
My most embarrassing moment was on my first day at my new middle school. It was time for lunch, and I had just gotten my tray of food - spaghetti - and began to find a seat amongst tons of people I had absolutely no clue about.
I ended up having to go to the nurse's office - and on top of that, I was being escorted by the principal and a teacher since I had no idea where the office was. I had to walk all the way across campus with food all over me. At the nurse's office, I ended up getting a clean shirt and clean pants. Everyone knows that the clothes from the nurse's office are horrible. I left the nurse's office only to be laughed at by passing students because of the clothes and for the cafeteria incident.
This is just one embarrassing incident out of many in my life. Everyone has them, so relax and let the moments flow.
Ah, long hair. I'm personally a fan.

Is there a connection between Selena and Niall? Don't worry; you don't have to hide in the corner and cry your eyes out. My friend enlightened me (seriously, I haven't noticed it!) that it's nothing more than a publicity stunt. It's fantastic advertising for every single one of them.

A couple of months ago at work, a co-worker said something to me that made me very uncomfortable. She was joking around, saying that another one of our co-workers has had a recent "black girl fetish," so she asked him what he thought about me. Um, OK.
