ONE
- Boys. They’re fun to hang out with. But girls are are the only ones that really understand the gospel of gossip.

TWO - It is OK to not like everyone. I can be sure that not everyone likes me.

THREE - There’s a big difference between different people’s definition of power tricks and wake tricks.

FOUR - My life as a kiteboarder would be much harder without a big French boyfriend called Bertrand to help me set up my board and bars. I’m just not made for that stuff. I say ‘No!’ to super feminism!

FIVE -I cannot live without waffles and pancakes with Nutella.

SIX - Pictures can lie, videos can’t.

SEVEN - Learning French is much harder than I thought.

EIGHT - Not everything is possible, even if your Mum tells you it is.

NINE - As a kiteboarder learning to be patient will stop you going crazy.

TEN - Shopping will always make me happy.

ELEVEN - Melted cheese is so much better than normal cold cheese.

TWELVE - Playing poker sucks.

THIRTEEN - Money would make my life so much easier, perhaps not happier, but I'd have a lot less worries. Well, maybe just a little bit happier too...
