Things I wish I could say to myself, age 16

• Don't be so sure of what you want out of life. Because then you might get exactly what you want and realize it isn't what you thought it would be.
• Drop everything and read a book (or three) by Margaret Atwood.
• What/who you love the most will throw you off the most.
• You're not too old to play on the swings.
• Wear glasses instead of contacts. They're classy, trust me.
