#4/20 - 16 year old

#4 List 10 things you would tell your 16 year old self, if you could!
--------------

YIKES
now that is a question
this one is tough because from the age of 16 to age of 18 i went through....alot.

1) Being tough isn't all its cracked up to be.  It is ok to show emotion...(sometimes)  figure this out now and you won't still be struggling at it when you are 23!

2) Go to a community college and figure out what you want to do with your life before you get into $36,000 of debt for a degree you will likely never use.  (still don't totally regret this though because i made some awesome friends) 

3) Never stray from who you are.  Because that person is good enough, and people will love you.  It does not take turning into a new person to be loved.  

4)  People will always disappoint you.  That is reality.  Do not take it personally.  This will never end.  Learn to deal. 

5) Live in the moment and stop hoping for tomorrow!  You are a dreamer and always thinking about the next thing to happen instead of enjoying the moment.  Soak it up!  Time goes so fast, and you don't want to look back and wonder where life went.

6)  Love your life.  It is the only one you will ever get.  Live it to the fullest with the best attitude every day!

7) Don't let other people decide your life for you!  Make your own decisions and stand firm in what you believe.  

8) Accept the fact that you will lose touch with a lot of your "friends"  but the true ones will be there no matter what.  Also accept that sometimes they are the ones letting go, not all relationships can last forever, no matter how hard you try.  Letting go is sometimes the best thing you can do.  

9) Do no hold a grudge.  What is the point?  Just let things go!

10) Remember that all the people you originally "hated" will eventually become your best friends!!!!

here goes #2

Describe 3 legitimate fears you have and explain how they became fears.
------------------
this is actually really hard!  

1) I legit think someone is always following me or going to sneak up on me, or appear over me while i am in bed!  I do not know how this fear started to be honest.  I think from tv and scary movies!  I always think I am seeing things coming into my room at night or coming up the steps. When I go into a room I always reach around the corner to turn the lights on and always expect someone to be sitting there waiting to jump me!

2) That I will not be able to have children/ won't be a good mother.  I think I have the fear that I will not be able to have children because I want to have children so bad.  That I really have convinced myself that I will not be able to have children.  I think i fear I won't be a good mother because every part of me wants to be that perfect mother.  And i do NOT want to fail at it. no matter what!!

3) That my home will burn down and my poor pets will go down with the flames :(  Fire scares the pants off me!  I can not even imagine having to deal with that.  And thinking of my poor animals dying in the flames is even worse!!!  I have NO clue when this became a fear!  But it is for sure there!!
