What life advice would you give to your younger self?

I'll start.


- Friends come and go
- Keep persisting and never give up.
- There will always be naysayers, people who will try pulling you down to their level - surround yourself with people who are 'better' than you so they can 'lift' you up to their level, whatever that aspiration may be.
- Never stop being curious
- Express your intentions to people, you never know what doors it may open for you

    -Get out while you still can
    -What she's doing is not a diet
  • - Running away is the bravest safest thing you can do.
    - Check your food hordes, before they go moldy and start to stink
    - Don't deny who you are just to please others. You won't please them and you'll begin to hate yourself.
    - Keep reading
    - Believe in yourself.

    - that pretty girl over there is not out of your league.
    - you don't need to drink to be fun.
    - buy apple, microsoft, and google stock.
    - life goes by pretty fast: don't postpone the important parts thinking that there will be time for them later.
  • - Don't be a moody douche
    - Don't think too much

    Actually these still apply now :/

    Stop being so f'en scared and self conscience no one cares it's all in your head! Study just a little more. Pretty much if I could have told myself these things would have gone differently. Oh well c'est la vie

    1. Don't **** things up! You don't need that **** in your life.
    2. Hold on because your time will definitely come.
    3. In a few years being a sociopath it's going to be cool so don't feel ashamed of being socially inibithed.
    4. Just because someone come from your family it doesn't mean they're not goint to hurt you. And it doesn't mean you have to stick around them if they make you feel bad.
    5. Accept failures and relax.
    6. Go on a diet as soon as you can (or try not to get that fat).

    I think that's all
  • - work at school
    - don't smoke
    - don't do soo many drugs
    - don't trust anyone
    - try and eat healty
    - don't be such a slag
    - don't get in debt
    - don't get into fights

    Believe it or not though i did actually turn out ok in the end. :tongue:

    Do what makes you happy not what others want / expect.
    Be with the ones you love.
    Enjoy every day, we only get one go.

    don't try and make that jump on my bike
    don't try and make that jump on my skis
    don't try jumping off the garage roof
    don't try and squeeze through that hole
    don't try and climb that tree
    don't try and cut that rock with my knife...

    still probably wouldn't have listened though with a can do attitude, lol

    - well done for walking away from the girls who were mean to you and bullied you every day at school. Half of them have no education and have babies and don't know who the father is

    - you will travel the world

    -keep reading, enjoying music and doing your own thing

    -don't tell that guy you love him

    -Don't ever stop being yourself. The right people will find you and love the person that you are, not the person you want the world to see.
    -Don't be so serious all the time. Make sure to take time out for fun.
    -Live in the present, but don't forget the lessons that the past taught you. Don't get caught up in what might be in the future. You can plan your life out to a T, but it won't always go according to your plan. The universe has other things in store for you.
    -You need to be able to let others help you when you need help. You are not Wonder Woman in thinking you can do EVERYTHING for EVERYONE.
    -Make yourself a priority. That's the only person you're left with at the end of the day.
