#4: 10 things you'd tell your 16 year old self.

1. Wear shorter shorts. Those legs were amazing
2. Finding a boyfriend isn't the solution to all of your problems
3. Stop being an under acheiver.  You will start takting AP classes in a year or so and then regret not taking them sooner.
4. Swim!  This is the sport you were meant to do.  Embrace it and stop trying to pretend you're ever going to be amazing at soccer.
5. Stand up for yourself.  Good Lord, letting your "friends" treat you like shit isn't a great life decision.
6. Tell your brother how much he's screwing up your life and then get over it, and live your life, be happy and don't worry about him.
7. Braces aren't the end of the world, though crying hysterically at the orthodontist is not a great idea either
8. Though it might seem like it now, hanging out in the Alberston's parking lots isn't really that cool.
9. Enjoy eating cookie dough straight from the tube, because that won't fly as an adult.

10. Be happy with who you are, accept the things you can't change and have fun.
