    Don't get married till you are over 30 and enjoy the peace and quiet. Also don't worry about the future and go for the guy who holds doors not grudges

    Going back 10 years I would be 16.... I would tell myself several things:

    1--Leave this a-hole alone..... in a few short months you will meet the man of your dreams.
    2--Leave these group of so called friends alone. Once you graduate you will never here from them again. They will wind up causing you more harm than good.
    3--REMAIN ACTIVE....Don't think bc you have a cute little shape now that you will keep it forever....don't eat out all the time.

    You're going to go through the hardest part of your life and not see it coming BUT you will make it through and when you do you will find yourself again and be a stronger person than you would have ever imagined. Don't lose faith! <3

    I would be 12...
    Get help for you anxiety problems, go out for cheerleading, get out of the house more. And even if you're still miserable and exhausted at the beginning of 10th grade, don't quit. Not for educations sake, but for your social life. Oh, and stop friend-zoning your best guy friend, we know he likes you, and he actually turns out to be pretty handsome. And for the love of god, speak up when your brother asks for your and your families opinion on marrying that worthless waste of air.

    Exercise NOW, keep active when you're pregnant and start losing the baby weight sooner. It's really hard the older you get.

    You're a good person, and I love you just the way you are! Don't change for anybody.

    I would punch myself in the face and yell...."You have no idea what your rocking! Be proud of that AMAZING body you have. In a few years, you'll regret all the negative things you've said about yourself, and would KILL to have the body you have now!"

    God i was such a dumb *kitten*

    You're cute. You'll find a way to accept your body.
    But when mom said you didn't need braces.. get a second opinion.
    Your teeth look awesome in theory, but the upper-bite is annoying and you know it.

    Hmm.. To my 11 year old self,
    Be more social. And active. You like your friends and everything, but get out and do stuff. You might have avoided years of reasons that brought you to this website. Also, be louder to people other than family and friends. Everyone thinks you're quiet, but we both know the truth.
    On the other hand, you know what, stay the same. Everything turns out just fine regardless of the bumps in the road. :)

    Lets see I would have been 12 so...

    1. Dont let that *****y hag of a volleyball coach scare you out of playing volleyball again... you may not be able tos erve overhand yet, but soon you will have a killer serve!
    2. Your first day of school, in 7th grade, someone will ask you if you are pregnant... dont freak you turn out to be really good friends and the person who started the rumor actually ends up pregnant in 8th grade.
    3. There is nothing wrong with your best friend being a guy, and even is people start to rag about you about you guys dating, dont give him up... you will regret it!
    4. Make up with Michelle already...
    5. Dont give up on your dreams... and never settle for less than you are worth just because you are one of the "pretty, thin, popular ones" You are amazing, have amazing talents, and end up with the most amazing man and children! Life for you will be good!!!

    10 years ago I did just this - I grabbed myself by the shoulders and screamed at myself (in my head so the neighbors didn't call the cops) to get out of the marriage I was in and build a better life for myself and my son. I've done just that. A lot of other "things" happened, but I found my way out of them.

    Good question!

    Now, if I could go back 15 or 20 years???????

    1) There is more to life then getting your PhD. Get out there and enjoy life.
    2) Get out of my comfort zone and move away. It will be scary at the beginning but the discovery of what is out there in the world is just amazing.
    3) Stop spending late nights at the hospital, get out their and start moving.

    enjoy your time with the kids more, they grow up too fast. Stop just surviving and start living. Go back to school and move closer to the ocean!
