letter to 16 y/o kristi
stolen from fairiehawke
10 things i'd tell my 16 year old self
1. you think life is crappy now, just wait until you get to your twenties, especially mid-twenties - it gets worse, but don't worry it'll get better if you MAKE it better
2. matt is not worth all the heartache.. haha.. you just talked to him last night and that is NOT where you would want your life to be in 10 years!
3. you stay in touch with the important people in your life, so be comforted in that fact. heather, jade, and matt will always be your friends
4. don't worry my dear little kristi, you will have sex when you're ready!! and it's fun! >:)
5. stay the strong minded person you are. you're kind of a pushover now, but it gets worse and people really walk all over you. please stay strong
6. don't do college off and on, just do it. you'll regret it because it's really hard to go back
7. be more active with adam, you and your lil bro have a great relationship and he ends up one of your best friends. you even start crying giving a speech about him at the church on graduation day. he cries too. so does half your family AND the congregation!!!
8. watch out for bad habits that sneak up on you. it's ok to do what you want, but sometimes trouble comes your way because of things you pick up
9. start running. it won't kill you. and you actually love it!
10. you will have loved and you will have lost. your heart will be stomped on and crushed 4 times (if you count james) it sucks, i'm sorry! but it'll be ok, you're only 16 now - so just be prepared
p.s. kristi.. you end up a manager at mcdonalds and get paid great! but don't worry you won't be there forever!!!
