4 of 30

Bed at 5 AM last night.

Up at 9AM this morning.

"going" from nine until this very moment.

I'm glad number 4 on the list is only 10 items long.

4. List 10 things you would tell your 16 year-old self, if you could.

1) When you get to college, instead of bemoaning that you aren't a size two, appreciate how thin you really are.

2) Don't get blonde highlights, only get red ones.

3) It's ok to be weird... eventually you will find friends who are just as wonderfully quirky as you are.

4) Appreciate your time with your family- especially your cousins.

5) Get someone to invest in Apple and Starbucks stock for you.

6) You get married at 23, but you don't know him yet. Stop being so emo.

7) There will come a time when people respect you for the same things that people now make fun of you for.

8) You are actually an extrovert.

9) One day you are gonna have a tattoo... I just blew your mind, didn't I?

10) Turns out, you are a lot cooler than you think you are.
