Dear 16 year old me,
please for the love of god don't start thinking about dating Derrick! In the end it will end badly and you will be left alone and lose two of your best friends. Also work on your grades and start looking at colleges and make sure you figure out what you would like to do! Also find a job and keep it! Don't care if it is at McDonalds or other fast food restaurant. Take your time writing the Christmas story that has been bothering you for a year and start working on the Addams family story or it will haunt you for all your adult years! Also stop drinking the Mountain dew! Don't procrastinate either and for the love of god, don't give up on John because he will end up offing himself when you are in your 20's and you will never get the chance to apologize...
Sincerely,
27 year old me
