What's some advice you would tell your 16 year old self ?

To never stop running......I did and gained a ton of weight. Now back at running and losing weight.

What would I tell my 25 year old self. Travel the world and experience life before you settle into your career.

What would I tell my 35 year old self: Your 40s are going to ROCK!!!

What would i tell my 40 year old self today and right now---When friends Defriend you..........MOVE ON, because you don't need to be depressed over it......... Because they don't give an "F" about you.

Don't date *kitten*. They're so not worth your tears.
Don't get drunk. It's so not worth the hangover.
Don't write that in your yearbook. It won't be funny a year from now.

Explore your college options instead of just deciding on one school, don't marry at 21, don't keep doing stuff you hate to make people happy, make yourself happy and healthy by not waiting until you're 29 or 30 and then realize that you need to fix yourself to live longer, don't dwell on the past, never forget who your true friends are and remember your family loves you regardless of what you think right now.

dear 16 year old self: stop trying to grow up so damn fast because once you get there it is going to be alot more responsibility than you imagined and your going to wish you could be young again. live you life and have fun before you decide you need to settle down and have a family. sometimes your mother does know more than you and you are not always right. pay attention at school because while you may think its all about being "cool" when you grow up most of those "cool" friends wont be around. what really matters is learning because thats what gets you farther in life. knowledge and of course knowing the right people. TRAVEL.... its amazing and love yourself

dear 16 year old self,

hes gay. and you're his best friend and nothing more. and he needs you to be his best friend now more than ever.

you will get over it.

((ugh that ws dumb of me but im so glad its over.))

Hey you!

First and foremost, stop being so obsessed with yourself and what others think of you. Befriend Sarah now. You may think she's a dork but she eventually become your best friend and be the one of the greatest people you've ever had in your life. Don't try to act like "the man" by unnecessarily stealing a base in softball during the 3rd game of the season. You wreck you ankle and never play again. This will lead to an episode of depression and weight gain which you'll spend many unsuccessful years trying to correct.
Oh and walk into the classroom right next door to your English class. Inside you'll find a guy named Drew. Introduce yourself to him and ask him on a date. If not you'll spend many nights between now and senior year crying over silly, useless boys when all along this boy was the one for you and the one you'll eventually marry.

me

p.s. Oh and stop tanning now...it's really gross.

Love yourself more.
Know that you are beautiful inside and out. Stop the negative self talk. Build your confidence.
Spend more time with your mother--she's still grieving the loss of your dad a year ago, she's not uncaring, she's just having a really hard time being a single parent.
Be nicer to your brother. You will always be the bratty little sister--get over it and enjoy your friendship before he moves 1000 miles away.
Save your money.
Spend more time focusing on school and less on the boys you're crushing on.
Don't drink so much. Don't bother trying weed, it's a waste of time.
Spend more time with Grandpa G. He only has a few years left.
Stay active!
Try something new. Don't be so afraid all the time.

1. Stay away from Rob - he IS going to try to choke you and stalk you for years to come. You will never be free of him unless you nip it in the bud now.
2. Enjoy your time with Mick, it's was worth it even though it wasn't meant to be. Don't change yourself for him.
3. Please take it easy with the booze - it's going to lead you to do so many things that you will NOT be proud of. It's also going to aggrevate an anxiety disorder that you don't kow you have yet.

"Buy Apple"

LMAO, great.. just absolutely great response. HAHA

Dear 16 year old me,

You don't know *kitten*!! Do well in school and go straight to college after high school! No, a job is not what you need! You need an education first! Pull your head out of your *kitten* and pay attention! Oh and stop smoking pot it is going to make you fat!!! If you dont quit eating like you are a star football player you will get even fatter! Go find Dawn Bxxxx she is the woman that will make you a better man and marry her as soon as you can!!

RUN!!!!!

Dear me,

Start using that treadmill everyday and eat less! You will regret not exercising sooner! And you will also regret eating crap! You will later in life punish yourself for the mistakes of not starting sooner... Just thank within a year before getting outta high school you could be 40lbs or more lighter... Why wait?

"just let me put the head in" is a LIE!!!:noway: :grumble:

OMG! True story!!!

Dear 16 yr old self,
Don't feel bad about yourself, because you are a great person
True love will come and u will be married with a kid
Also, just cuz u won't go to either junior or senior prom doesn't make a loser, but rather someone who knows how to hold onto their dignity
You will lose your mom when u r 20, ur grandmother at 21, and almost lose ur dad because of heart issues, so just be careful
u won't get into au for music ed, and will have to leave, but the best thing is ur soulmate....and tech crew
continue working out, u don't wanna be 214
stay away from the ex before ur hubby, the guy is obessed and will never leave u alone whatsoever until u move (thats right another move in the future)
u will head to two other colleges before deciding that enough is enough
keep studying more then usual, u will need it
One final thing: be true to urself and not hang around with fake people. the people u know will not be the friends there by ur side, but rather ur family that abandoned u when u were 11 yrs old because of ur fathers butt dumbery will be there and u will see them again, especially cuz ur godfather will walk u down the aisle.

sincerely,
me

also, u will be at a newspaper and at a college where people recognize ur potential, just saying, and high school never ends.

Don't marry the first guy you sleep with, he will end up cheating on you and you will have to raise her baby. Besides that, he will be an alcoholic and make your life miserable. You are gorgeous and smart and will have a great job one day, don't settle early.



Oh how fun is life!!
