9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Dear Emilia, you just turned 18.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
So, as your future self, [br]here is some advice

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
that I'd like to give you.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
[Music]

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
This particular journey that you're on

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
is unlike any one of your friends'

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
that you are with right now.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
What they're doing

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
is gonna bring them[br]joy and happiness;

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
and what you're doing [br]is also gonna bring you --

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
maybe a little more struggle,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
and some joy and happiness as well.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
There are gonna be times

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
when someone says [br]that dream that you've had

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
your entire life?

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
The moment when someone says[br]that's not possible,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
it is.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
I know you didn't get into drama school

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
this time around?

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
But

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
you will.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
You have the strength to overcome it.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
And, you can go to the parties.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
And you can have fun at the parties.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
But you don't need to do[br]everything that everyone is doing.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
You know, ain't nothing wrong[br]with a Diet Coke.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
[Laughs] Ain't nothin' wrong.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
18 year old Emilia,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
I'm gonna quote "The Sunscreen Song"[br]at you.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
I know you know it.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
"You are not as fat[br]as you think you are."

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
"There are some women who look one way,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
and there are other women[br]who look another way."

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
"Like, a whole other way.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
And the way that the other women look?

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
People love, because [br]they look like women."

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
So, when it comes to relationship advice,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
there's other things that come along[br]with relationships.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
You think that they're, like,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
inspecting everything...

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
you know, and, kind of looking at you

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
in a way of, sort of,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
that makes you feel uncomfortable,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
or judged, or whatever it is.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Chances are, they are not.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Chances are, they are just

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
super happy to be there.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
You are gonna feel[br]some serious heartbreak.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
You're gonna feel, like, some proper...

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
some proper things.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
And the reason why it's gonna hurt[br]so much,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
it's because that heartbreak[br]is gonna make you doubt yourself.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
You put yourself out on a plate.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
And, you bare everything.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
And, someone says that they --

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
they don't really like that.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
So, that makes you feel...

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
like you're not worth it.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
But, you are.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
And there are lots of people

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
who are going to tell you[br]that you are worth it.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
The people in your life

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
when all the lights are off,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
the real people, who[br]you really love?

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Just hug them, like, every day.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Okay, so. Parting words.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Little Emilia. Littler Emilia.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
I'm just gonna say that, um,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
you know, it's...

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
it's autumn right now.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Because it's October.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
But, uh...

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
"winter is coming."

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
[Music]

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
And "wear sunscreen."

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Love, Emilia.
