22 Things I Learned At 22

2:00 PM


Happy Birthday self! Wooot! (Cue in Taylor Swift’s22”) Why does time really passed by so fast? I don’t want get old anymore! Lol. If only, right? As they say, life goes on. We just need to make the most out of it and take it as a roller coaster ride journey. And as a tradition here on my blog, I always make sure to publish a birthday post. So here, I made a list of all my life (and random) learnings over the years.


1. It’s okay to get hurt – in all aspects. We all have feelings, anyway.
2. You will gain friends, but you will lose some. You know what I mean J
3. Just because it works for you doesn’t mean it will work for everyone. Deal with our differences.
4. Not everything planned will work out. Life’s not a game plan! Changes is everywhere.
5. Insecurities are normal. You just have to see that we’re all unique in our own ways.
6. But don’t compare yourself to others. You have your own trademark. Take it as your strength.
7. You can’t please everyone. Whatever we do, people always have their say.
8. Be with positive and supportive people. There’s no room for negative vibes!
9. Do what you love. It’s fulfilling!
10. Don’t be too impulsive! – specially on shopping!! You don’t have to buy something trendy or just cute in stores, invest on pieces that you really need and can be used for a long time.
11. SAVE.SAVE.SAVE. You need that savings!
12. Indulge on your favorite food. Carbs and sweets? Who doesn’t love that! But make sure to keep track on a healthy lifestyle.
13. Smile more. It can change your mood.
14. Take that ootd and post on Instagram. Show them your inner fashionista!
15. Don’t let social media take your life. Go offline for a while and you’ll see the real life.
16. Listen to your favorite music. Feel the vibe/ moment – it can brighten up your day.
17. Less is more. Being minimalist makes your life easier.
18. Learn the art of letting go. Fix your closet and sell those things that you will not use anymore – you’ll make money out of it as well.
19. Miracles do happen. You just have to believe.
20. Don’t take life too seriously. You’ll experience both happiness and sadness.
21. You deserve the best!
22. Growing up is part of your life. As you get older, you’ll realize what matters the most and you’ll be more determined to pursue what you really want.
