Take the Pill - take care - don't willingly hurt anyone - have a good life, and don't regret.
Sorry that's more than one - but says it all.

To ignore the complete w***** who you'll meet in a nightclub when you're 18 - ended up marrying him and stuck with him for 16 years of hell!

Don't be afraid to ask for advice or help.
Don't start smoking.  Every other mistake I have made I have learnt from. 
That the person who you think of as an old aunt will be you very very soon> time really flies between the ages of 24 and 44.

to live life to the fullest, not worrying about what boy is cute, and if he'll be my boyfriend. we tend to grow up tooooo fast. i hope my lil girl will still be playing with barbie dolls at 15! not trying to dress sexy for boys!
Floss!!!!!

Hmmm.  I moved out at 16 and really messed up, and although I don't regret moving out I would tell myself that to think about what I was doing, who I was hurting and who I should be listening to.  But then if I was 15 then I probably wouldn't listen to me, as i would know better, and mess up for the 2nd time round anyway!

This has got me very thoughtful now.

BUT.... if I had given myself advice I wouldn't be who I am now, so I guess I wouldn't really want me to do things differently?

Ho hum.  I'd say be safe, don't start smoking, knuckle down at school/ college and take advantage of every given opportunity.  Oh, and start saving for a mortgage.

And whatever you do..... DO NOT GET A CREDIT CARD!

Can I give the advice to me when I was sixteen please? I'd go back and tell me for the two years of my A -Levels, having successfully obtained sponsorship from the Royal Navy through University, to stop playing rugby and football at every given opportunity, ignore girls, stop working at Safeways after school each day, and to get my bloody head down and concentrate on my studies.

 

Had I had the wisdom of foresight, I might now (you never know) be commanding my own frigate around various places in the world instead of being stuck behind a desk. 

When Phil Hall comes up to you after that school disco, DUCK! Darned near broke my nose he did. Or would I tell myself not to miss THAT opportunity with Louise wotserface...?

When Denise White comes up to you at the 6th form Xmas disco in 1988, she is coming on to you you effing idiot - don't blow it.

Work hard at school, and take your career advise calsses seriously.
Never to disbelieve all those comics I read when I was younger about computers taking over the world and people talking through these strange hand-held take anywhere phone thingys.And get ready to open up a mobile phone shop in years to come and take no notice of my gran who said they wouldnt catch on!!
Remember to put your usual lottery numbers on on June 6th 1998 coz all 6 are gonna come up.  Shame no-one came back to remind me, the other half would still be talking to me now if they did!
Don't get a credit card is a good one.  However, the thing that came to my mind instantly was: dump him - he'll end up hurting you and he's not worth it!  Not that I would have listened to myself of course.
Don't go out for a ride on my motorcycle on June 19th 1964 - then I won't have both arms, legs and my jaw when a crazy fool came round a corner on the wrong side of the road and hit me head on. Life saved by an Everoak full crash helmet.

Appreciate how beautiful, unflawed and firm your body is, wear outrageous clothes, go on lots of scary rollercoasters, sleep lots & moisturise your skin.
