1. Study hard. Grades will get you farther in life than boys. School is your job and it's relatively easy work. The answers are always right in front of you.
2. Go easy on the eyeliner girlfriend!
3. Your hair will never scrunch, so quit trying to make it happen! Your hair just looks wet.
4. The Goth/Emo phase should never happen. Ever.
5. Those junior high boys are NOT worth crying about! And just because you lose one doesn't mean you've lost them all.Your prince is still out there waiting for you, I promise.
6. Go to more cross country meets.
7. Try to be better at orchestra. This is your last year in it, make it count.
8. LEARN how to overhand serve. But your underhand serve will always be useful!
9. Don't stop writing. Your life is important, every detail. Just try not to vent so much on xanga ;)
10. Your childhood friends are special people. Let them know that by hanging out with them more and making an effort to stay friends. All relationships take work.
11. DON'T let your mom dye your hair. People will make fun of you because you look like a skunk.
12. DON'T let your mom wax your eyebrows at home. They will never grow the same.
13. Boys are going to break your heart this year, but none of them are the one you're supposed to be with. You are thirteen years old with this beautiful, amazing, good life ahead of you, and some day, you will meet a great guy. These boys, they're just kids. They're not worth all of the tears and heartache. I'm telling you again because I know it will feel like the end of the world, especially since you invested such time and care into these "relationships". But this is just the beginning.
I protest number 4!
