Now i'd just like to state i am not in anyway saying that

and i'm not telling anyone to drop out of school.
I just wanted to post this to show you that if you are worried
about getting good grades, if you get bullied for not
being as smart as your friends, just know it doesn't really
matter if what grades you get AS LONG as you have a dream!
School is a very small part of your life, your future and your
happiness means a lot more. So follow you heart, Follow your
dreams. And hopefully one day you will be in the magazine
and living the life of your dreams!
