Thirteen Things I WISH I COULD HAVE SAID TO MY 17 YEAR-OLD SELF- Trust your instincts. In the next 10 years they will prove to be very beneficial to you, so learn to use them now
- You are beautiful and funny.
- Don't stress over 'finding love'. Love will find you - when you least expect it, and it will be worth waiting for.
- Never let boys treat you like less than you're worth. And you are priceless.
- Don't be afraid to stand up for yourself
- Stop worrying about what people think of you - because high school fucking sucks, and odds are you won't speak to any of them ever again anyway - and the ones you DO keep in contact with will be worth it.
- Stay out late, and have fun. Getting a B on an assignment won't kill you.
- Party more, enjoy your teens.
- It's okay to masturbate. You won't go blind, you're not evil, and it will be worth it... trust me. Besides, if you don't know what an orgasm feels like, how will you ever be able get there during sex? oh, and every guy you've ever met in your entire life time has...and DOES...some of them many times a day.
- Sing! Every chance you get, even if you're scared.
- Treat your mother with respect. She's a really great person, and she understands more than you think she does. also, she'll love you forever, no matter what, so you might as well talk to her. Don't keep things locked up.
- Get your damn drivers license! don't wait until you're 19 and B-rad forces you to go get it.
- Be kinder to the people you know you should have been kinder too. it will bite you in the ass later.

15 people love me:
Hi, that's a really good idea for a list!! I should do one sometime!! I did a TT too, it's here: http://lifes-adventures.net
Cheers!!

Happy TT. Great list. I think all of those 17 and 18 year olds could do with a letter from the future them.
If only our younger selves would listen to such good advice!
I would tell myself to lighten up and enjoy this moment...don't worry about getting to the next moment...Great list!
I love your TT. I would have said many of the same things to myself. Thanks for the smile. Happy Thursday!
COOL IDEA
This is a great idea. Not just for a TT, but for a post period. I might have to wait a few years... cause my future self has some crap to tell the current me... I am sure of it.
If I could only just hear her!!!
Great TT! Thanks for sharing!
I hated my senior year of high school!
I do wonder what my future self in about 10 years would say to me now about raising my children. I could use the help!
oh my gosh! if only we could travel back in time!! :-)
Very inspirational list. Being a mother of four I can ceartainly appreciate #11!
Enjoy the rest of your Thursday!
Great list...especially #1...
Blunt, truthful and entertaining!! Some of these would be very helpful in the high school years! Where were you then??
This is a most wonderful list..Thanks for posting!

Really great list! Wouldn't it have been wonderful to have been able to tell our younger selves all that? :o)
