Friday's blog prompt....

If you could go back to about the age of 14, when you're just entering your teenage years, what 3-5 pieces of advice would you give yourself?


I guess my only real advice to myself would be to relax a bit more and have more confidence in myself.

I was very shy at 14, not very happy at school and low self-confidence. It was a horrible age to be, in an all girls school that was very bitchy at times. Life got a lot better when I moved schools to do my A levels, but at 14 I didn't yet know that would happen.

As a third piece of advice - blue and green eyeliner is *not* a good look ;)

I am sure I shared the blue/green eyeliner look hahahah! Would not re-visit teen years for a million of anything. Happy to be a 'grown up' :D

Wish I'd followed your advice! I too was very shy with low confidence. LOL at the eyeliner!

I would go back and tell myself that it's okay if you aren't popular and that I will be a successful wife, mother and nurse someday. I also would tell myself that I shouldn't be so "free" with myself and that that's not the way to acceptance.
