4 of 31 Questions: 16 year old self

Day Four
List 10 things you would tell your 16 year old self, if you could
To follow from the beginning start here

1. Focus more on academics then your social life.
2. Your 'big problem' really isn't that big. You will forget it/move past it/learn from it before you realize it, and you'll look back wishing that those 'big problems' were the problems you were dealing with as an adult
3. Be kind. At your 20 year reunion no one will remember or care if you were the best dressed, the smartest or had the hottest boyfriends. They will remember if you were nice to them.
3. You're not fat! Honestly you will look back at your 16 year old self and be like "damn! I honestly thought I was fat!?"
4. Believe in yourself. Even though you think there is no way you are going to pass this test, get a good grade or learn anything....keep going!
5. You're allowed to change your mind, just because you made the choice to play a certain sport, date a certain guy, take a certain class...you are allowed to change your mind. Do what makes you happy
6. Respect your parents. Turns out, they do know what they are talking about and are doing what is best for you
7. Don't let what someone say or thinks about you define what you think about yourself
8. A boy will not complete you or make your life perfect. Even though you think they are the 'one', chances are they aren't. So you will go through break-ups and heart-breaks,  and even though you think there is no way you'll ever get over them....somehow you do and you'll look back and realize you were so young and naive.
9. Don't let anyone else determine your self-worth
10. Simply enjoy being 16. You only have 52 Saturday's to have fun, create memories and simply be a care-free 16 year old girl!
