20 Things I would like to tell my 10 year old self
Enjoy being 10, colouring books are a lot more fun than council tax!
Clean your room, it teaches you good practice for the future
Stop playing kiss chase in the playground and eat your lunch instead, the boys just want kisses and sandwiches are more important, boys DO have cooties.
Donât let the bullies get ya, youâre just a caterpillar now, one day youâre going to transform into a beautiful butterfly and the boys that are bullying you now because youâve got freckles will be crawling into your direct messages on Instagram begging you to Netflix and chill (you donât know what Instagram is yet, or Netflix n chill, but you will, everybody does)
Keep the fuck away from social media, itâs mind numbing, boring and addictive â it will take up so much of your time and you wonât even realise it, donât scroll through pictures of other peopleâs lives when youâve got so much of your own life to live. (Seriously)
Eat what you want, in this day, everyoneâs worried about their weight and donât know whether its cooler to be skinny or fat â it literally doesnât matter, youâll be alright regardless, so if you want another biscuit, have one.
Donât put lip gloss on in the morning to impress the boys at school â put it on to impress your reflection
A school is just a building. Education is what you make it and your mind is a wonderful thing.
Surround yourself with people that add value to your life, if they donât, kick âem out of it
The girl in the magazine does not look like that.
Enjoy your own company and explore your hobbies
Youâre an emotional creature, itâs okay to cry
Get off the game-cube, the sunâs out, Saffron!
Be honest
You canât help everybody, some people have drama and negative energy following them around like a black cloud above the head, donât focus all your positivity into one person, they wonât listen to you, itâs all they know.
Lose your virginity to somebody you love
You probably arenât going to be a vet when you grow up
Make Nanny Linda a cup of tea with 1 sugar every time she asks you to, I know itâs a ball ache, just do it.
Avoid anyone called Josh
The chick who seems cool down the road from your moms, is not cool, proper weirdo, donât be her friend
