how not being so sad all the time (how to be happy)
1) stop caring about being popular. just stop. you have more important things in life. also, take a GOOD look at the popular kids. don't they all hate each other anyway? do you really want that?
2) stop listening to such depressing music. dabble in other genres for once. don't be a genre snob, just listen to what makes you feel happy. it'll definitely up your mood to go home and listen to all the pretty girls by fun. instead of ignorance by paramore or any angry you me at six song (believe me)
3) be nice to other people and to yourself. it's going to feel good when people return the favour.
4) the guy you like? not that important. get into something that isn't him and stop being so damn desperate for his attention. the right dude is going to like you back, not play """hard to get""" and odds are he'll act like he likes you if that's the case. unless you got yourself some special cookie that is super unsocial or something, he's going to WANT to talk to you.
4 b) also, you're too young to care about finding your soulmate.
5) don't get hung up on little stuff anymore. learn to forget the bad things, and maybe even forgive them. this is a trait that will change your life.
6) unfollow those depressing, hipster black&white blogs you follow on tumblr. they will do nothing but encourage your sadness, and you don't deserve to be sad. every person has their own right to happiness.
7) try to love yourself. your mom can, your dad can, your cats can, your friends can, so you can too. start with small stuff "my hair looks good today" and aim for big stuff "i am a good person."
i'm not saying i do these like i totally don't but I'M TRYING and that's what matters
