    Follow your dreams no matter what 'they'say and saving it for marriage isn't always best.

    your red hair really is beautiful. believe all those elderly passersby when they tell you what a gift it is. they aren't just yanking your chain, you'll see!

    stand up for yourself!

    don't trust jeanine, michelle or any other of those girls, because they will stab you in the back for the sake of looking cool for everyone.

    go to community college. it's not "the 13th grade", it can save you a lot of money and WOW credits actually mean something and can be transferred.

    Learn to swim.
    Play a sport, no matter how stupid you think you look doing it.
    Don't date that older guy when you're 19.
    Appreciate your body and your looks.
    Don't get married at age 22.
    Just say "No" when your friend offers you a cigarette.

    Dear 17 year old me. The love of your life and father of your child will die on Easter Sunday 2009, make him stay home. Also, you have about a year left with your mom. Tell her how much you love her. Every day.

    There are so many things to tell ourselves when we are younger. We have all been down but picked ourselves up and that's what makes us stronger. We are our own heros. And we can accomplish anything if we set our minds to it cause we are stronger and wiser from the things we have all gone through when we were younger. So whether you are trying to lose, gain, or stay at a stable weight, know that it all starts with YOU<3

    High school girls are mean. You are beautiful so don't care what other people think of you. You're gonna be expelled from Christian school for your big mouth, but always stand up for what you believe... even if it means standing alone.

    I'd tell my 5th grade self that "No, you are not going to get seconds at lunch or eat other kid's food they don't want." I probably wouldn't work since my mother told me the same things but I'd try to give it a shot. Maybe go all Charles D*ckens and do a Christmas Carol type scenario.

    I slipped on a rock and face planted into the concrete when I was 8yrs old. I'd tell myself one simple thing......"ROOOOOOOCKK!!!"
    Mine is very similar. I was trying to fly a kite once and running top speed to keep it in the air, looking behind me the whole time. Forgot where I was and ran full speed into a trailer home's tow hitch right in the center of my quads.

    Hey, young Asshat, turn around 3 seconds earlier. Please.

    Whoa. I did the same thing when I was 11 and almost lost my left big toe from it. Ran across a garden hoe that was left turned up in the yard. :sick:

    Don't date that American soldier, your mother was right about him.
    You only have a couple years with your dad, stop fighting with him.
    GO AND TRAVEL!

    Just kill her. You're 8. You won't go to jail. You wont get in trouble. Just do it and you wont have to spend the rest of your life living in fear.
