What's the best piece of advice you've ever been given? 



Don't try to be someone else, that won't make you happy. Don't do something just because it's expected, do it because it'll make you happy or because it's on your path to become happy. (which means don't keep your head in the clouds and also be realistic, you can't live off of a pie in the sky, don't give up your dreams, but stay focused.)
Best argument I've ever heard: "I'm not weird, I'm gifted!" Don't let them bully you, don't hate yourself for being different, just because they don't understand you now doesn't mean you have to give up everything you enjoy or believe in. You'll find friends, but it's not necessarily the kid living next door. Things I did back then are popular now and now I'm the one with experience, who'd have known!
