"Embrace your second language.
You shouldn't be embarrassed
to speak another language
because you think your friends
and classmates will perceive you
as less-than. Speak your second
language often: fostering that
knowledge will serve you—and
others—well, now and for years
to come."

challenges and be OK with
whatever results you get. Learn
from mistakes and continue to
grow through experiences, both
successful and unsuccessful."

you love them as frequently
as possible."

love every part of your beautiful,
unique self."
