What would you tell your younger self?

Letter to Me by Brad Paisley :)

Seriously, don't care so much about what other people think.  Trust me, there will always be another jerk to love.  Live your life with self confidence and do the things you want to do. 

This would not play for me... what song is it?

Basically everything in this song:

:)

I think that i would tell myself to enjoy my friends while they are there... In HS your BFFs are not always there forever. Mostly I am happy with the way things turned out. I got a useless degree, but if I hadn't I wouldn't have gained a wonderful mentor!

I'd tell myself to go to college and learn what I'd always wanted to learn, and to take every opportunity that comes instead of staying in this crappy small town and listening to my friends. Instead of going to a university to major in English and German, and maybe minor in Spanish to become a translator or ambassador or ESL teacher or anything that involved seeing the world and travelling, I let my friend talk me into going to community college with her to study massotherapy, and we both dropped out in the beginning of the second semester, and I never went back. Though that's about to change in the fall I hope, as I'm planning on finally going and studying what I want.

I'd also tell myself that that stupid boy I thought I was so in love with  back then was a huge worthless, cheating loser, and that I shouldn't have been so worried that I'd never find another boyfriend.

I'd also tell myself to cheer up and quit worrying so much about what the other kids in school thought of me, because I'm never going to see them again unless I run into them at the grocery store or something, so quit worrying about them, lol.

you shouldn't have moved too fast. you should've stayed where you were and you wouldn't be alone and lost right now lmao. 

Hmm ... overall I'm actually pretty happy with the choices I've made. There are 2 friendships I can think of that I wish I would've avoided; that's the only thing I would do differently.

I'd like to say that I would tell myself to work harder at university and establishing a career. In all honesty though, if I wasn't so undecided about what I wanted to do I would never have taken the job I did where I met my husband so its hard to have regrets when everything turned out so well.  I think I might tell myself to not bother with university since it cost me a lot of money and got me nowhere.  I would have been better off working and saving money.  

I wish that I couldve been kinder to my parents.  I know that they meant well, even when I was punished, but I was harsh, and I was rough around the edges, all for my independence.  I would tell myself to stand up to those bullies and knock one down if I had to.  I would also change the high school that I went to and go to Laguardia School of Arts instead of the business HS that I went to, and continue college, even if they were kinda crappy. 

I would advise myself to come up with a more clear career path. Halfway through grad school and I still don't know what I want to do.

I also would advise myself to have children later in life. I love them to death, but college and trying to start a career would have been a lot easier, I think.

ohhh god. thre are lots of things is should PROBABLY tell my younger self, but i had waaay too much fun being stupid.
