saba: it could definitely be way worse you know, dear hannah life is hard. to make it any harder on yourself, that's just unfair. you have done a good job staying alive and being relatively independent (or well on your way towards independence) thus far
hannah: well thank you mr. saba
saba: so you should congratulate yourself.
hannah: with champagne?!
saba: yes!
hannah: huzzah!
saba: you should just love on yourself for a while.
That I will change this year. That I will try to be happy without needing others. That I will do all of my homework, most days. That I will at least 3.0 every class I take. That I will pick a minor and stick to it. That I will at least apply to study abroad. That I will not drink more than twice a week. That I will never drink alone. That I will join at least one club. That I will be more open minded.
That I will excercise at least three times a week. That I will not bring a child into this world unless I could support it and still have enough income left to buy it christmas presents and maybe go to yellowstone. That I will never stop showing the people that I love that I love them. That I will talk to my parents at least once a week. That I will never be addicted to drugs. That I will try to control my temper. That I will see more live music. That I will not date anyone until i know they're good for me.
That I will know the name of everyone I sleep with. That I will not neglect my friends for a boy.
That I will never settle for less than I'm capable of. That I will change this year.
