萨姆即将迈入高中的校园生活，他的妈妈会给他提出哪些建议呢？
Dear Sam，
1 In two short days， you will embark on a lifechanging chapter that will mark your path into adulthood. I have some last minute but timeless advice for you. I hope you take these points to heart.
2 Be kind to yourself. Surely， you will be faced with guys who are way more developed than you. Don’t compare yourself to others now or ever. Be patient and kind to yourself.
3 Seek quality over quantity in friendships. There’s nothing better than a couple of friends who know you well and back you. Friendships aren’t just about what you get out of them， it’s about you giving and backing them too.
4 Seize the amazing academic opportunity. I hope you’ll take full advantage of this opportunity. That does not mean that I only want you to get good grades. It means that I want you to learn， to think independently and to challenge yourself. I want you to do your best and try your hardest.
5 Girls are great， but shouldn’t be your focus. High school is a time to discover who you are， have a ton of fun， work out your awkwardness， laugh， and so on. Please don‘t let a girl stress you out. It is not the time to get so focused on a girl now. High school is a great time to learn how to treat young women with respect， honor， and purity.
6 Don‘t be afraid to fail. Please try new things. Look at high school as a chance to explore and expand your horizons. Don’t just focus on what you already like and are good at. There is no better time in life than high school to try out an activity that seems fun or interesting to you.
7 Dear Sam， there will be more that dad and I will do for you. So with my heart bursting with joy and sadness altogether， I am sending you off. Dad and I love you deeply. There are really no issues we can’t handle together. Never forget that.
Your loving mother
