    To my 15yo self:

    Don't go to south africa
    Work hard for your GCSE's
    Write like hell
    Be grateful to how your life is. It can change irrevocably at any moment.
    Life's a b*tch, enjoy it when you can

    1) You're going to have seizures, don't get scared when doctors get confused, you'll be ok.
    2) When you feel down, get help, you'll regret it later if you don't. Don't suffer alone.
    3) Do better at maths
    4) It gets really bad, but then it gets better, just hold on.
    5) Find new friends, C is a bitch.

    Stop caring what your peers think.
    Be nicer to your family; they're the ones that will stick around.

    Don't let your orthodontist go through with the treatment which was deemed terrible by most dentists on the Internet..

    Appreciate everyone around you, they are'nt around forever and then you WILL miss them!!!.Pay attention at school,yes I know you dont like it but tough.Dont worry about having a boyfriend ( everyone else is lying) the boys will come and you'll be inundated.You are worth more than you realise, dont listen to others, they are just very insecure and take it out on you.

    Make more of an effort to talk to others if possible, but try and impress the right people.

    Don't let the bullies bring you down. Trust me, it'll really change your future if you don't let it get to you.

    Get into more hobbies! I can't believe my 13 year old self barely listened to music.

    1) Start going to school and doing well! You don't need to waste your life!
    2) Don't go out with J :/
    3) Don't go out with B either, thats a mistake!
    4) Never, ever let C introduce you to people and if you ever meet a SPC, run a mile, then run another.
    5) Get into sport!

    6) Most importantly, do not spend the next five years constantly comparing yourself to other girls and hating yourself for it. You aren't an underdog, you're just not the girl for THOSE guys. You're also a late bloomer, but when you hit 15, everything gets ALOT better.


    7) Oh and if i've just turned 13, do not go to ****e night in a couple of weeks because being taken home drunk by the police ruins that summer for you!

    1. J and you will end up fighting. Don't get too emotionally invested in the friendship, because the fallout will hurt...
    2. Make friends your own age, because while it's fun now they're all going to go to uni in a year or two and you're going to be on your own
    3. Stay the **** away from S
    4. Don't start drinking until you're older...your body is still developing and you'll kinda regret it all later on

    Recent breakthroughs in academic literature. The mark schemes for the various papers I'll be taking. Lottery numbers. Invest lottery winnings into Facebook, Apple and Google.

    Don't game until 4am every night for the next few years when you have to get up at 6.30 for school/sixth form! Gaming isn't important, getting good grades and keeping yourself healthy is more important! :mad:
