Letters to Me

Hello again! 
It's been a while.

I've been busy doing real life things which was nice. I actually exercised today! What! I can't believe it either! Quite proud of myself actually. It wasn't much, but it's a start. Also got me off the internet which makes me happy a bit.
I recently thought of doing this post as a letter to young 12/13 year old me, things I wish I could've heard or would've known then that I know now. 

Dear little me,

How's today? I hope it was good, but I remember most days seemed so terrible at this time. Being called ugly, fat, weird...or worse, some people not acknowledging your existence. 

It sucks.
 No, it more than sucks. 

That's okay, it doesn't suck forever. I know that means nothing to you because you are concerned with what's happening now not later. I can say this,you won't be alone forever. At this age no one realizes how wanting a relationship more than anything is bad, it is. It can lead to bad choices. I would know. 

Sorry, *spoilers*. 

I wouldn't change you for the world. When you are me, the future you, you are happy. You have friends. All the terrible things that happen and your life choices lead you where I am now. At 21 you will have almost everything you've ever wanted at 12. (not Cole Sprouse, sorry, but better) 

Remember it gets better. 

You get better. 

Never stop being weird either, it makes you special. Even if special isn't always accepted, it will be when it matters.  

As for advice, cut your hair, it looks bad. Just the bottom 2 inches. It'll flat iron better I promise. 

Have a great life, for us.
sincerely,

Older you xx
