Because yes, because twenty years from now you will be more sorry for the things you didn't do than for the things you did do. Be yourself, people don't have to like you and you don't have to care. Do it because it makes you happier not because others want you to. Trust the next chapter, you are the author. You can create the life of your dreams. Have fun. Have no regrets.
Honestly, as long as you are happy, WHO THE FUCK CARES?
