“I went to a strict elementary school with nuns, and uniforms that I'm pretty sure were made out of sandpaper. It was an academic, sports-oriented place.

The other girls would dip my hair in ink and stuff.” TryingMadeWantedSchoolGirlStuffSportsHairAcademicUniformsStrictInkVolleyballNunDipOther GirlElementary SchoolSandpaper Author:Zosia Mamet

“I wasn't a jock in school, and by the 10th grade, when I was in boarding school I was carrying water buckets for the girls' hockey team. I was the kid with long hair and glasses and acne trying to learn how to play guitar and piano in the music center.

“Give yourself a compliment every day. I know this sounds silly, but it really is important. As girls, we spend countless hours focusing on our flaws and trying to correct them or cover them up. It's essential to focus on something you like about yourself. Maybe you're having a good hair day or your skin is looking especially healthy. Take a moment each day to focus on the good, and then try to carry that with you throughout the day, because while bangs don't look good on everyone, confidence does.” KnowsGivingTryingLooksDoeImportantMomentsGirlSoundHoursFocusHairHealthyEssentialsSkinsSillyEach DayFlawsComplimentAbout YourselfBangsGood Hair Author:Lauren Conrad
