    DO NOT TRY ALCOHOL. You will get a taste for beer that will lead to an unsightly gut!

    Love yourself. Don't just sit there while people bully you, stick up for yourself.

    If you like a girl just go talk to her. Have a normal conversation. Ask her out if it goes well. Be your goofy, slightly awkward, funny, intelligent self. It's really not that big of a deal. Rejection is not the end of the world. The worst thing that can happen is you will learn something for the next one. Also, trying really hard to be part of the "cool crowd" is a waste of time and ends up not meaning much after high school. Appreciate the great friends you already have. Just wait and see how some of those "cool" people end up anyway.

    Damn, I wish I wasn't so shy back then!!!

    ^^ you sound like such a nice person :)


    Love yourself. Don't just sit there while people bully you, stick up for yourself.

    You will end up more successful and happy than all of them. And don't stifle your feelings.

    Being chesty and having curves is alright! Stop comparing yourself to others and do your homework!

    I probably wouldn't say anything, because I was a stubborn 14 year old, and most of the things I know now are what was being told to me then.

    Stop worrying about boys, it's not the worst thing ever if they reject you. You have your entire life to live and being single is really not a big deal.
  • I would tell myself: "your body can and will do amazing things, take good care of it and love yourself enough to respect it in all it's forms".
  • If you're at the school dance and you like that girl, go ask her to dance instead of bs'ing with all your loser friends.

    You are not fat! You are active, athletic, and healthy. Continue to stay active so you don't have over 100 pounds to lose in anther 30 years.

    I can relate to that one!

    Don't let the mean girl who is bullying you right now get into your head. Continue to be kind, funny, and open to friendship because there are so many wonderful people out there who want to be around you. Her cruel pettiness is not a measure of your worth. But if she does get into your head (because she did), take comfort in knowing that you are totally going to intimidate the hell out of her at your 25th Highschool Reunion. And it will feel sooooooo good (because it did).

    1) Don't let Christine and Courtney give you all that wine at the Christmas Party. 2) It really does get better. 3) Just like the song says - wear sunscreen!

    I wouldn't say anything - because my choices led me here, and it's exactly where I want to be.

    If I could change something and still end up right here - my advice to myself would be: he will break you, in every way - walk away before it starts. You deserve better.

    Don't worry about if "people are going to make fun of you" for voicing your opinions. Take risks. Ask out that pretty girl. And for god's sake stop spending all your money at the video arcade! That crap will be free in a couple years anyway.

    Then why does the Viagra commercial tell you to see a Dr. if you experience vision problems?
