30 Day Blog Challenge - Day 4

List 5 things you would tell your 16 year old self, if you could.

#1.  First of all, telling you anything would be impossible.  We haven't quite learned time travel yet, so being 33 years old, and without the capabilities to tell you anything at 16, that is what I'd tell you.

#2.  Stay skinny.  Figure out a way to keep your metabolism the same as it is at 16.  Maybe time travel will help with this?  You'll thank me later for this one.

#3.  Don't have four kids.  Wait...no, scratch that.  Don't have those four kids so quickly.  Those first three back to back are gonna wear your body down quicker than you'll realize.  You wind up 29 years old with arthritis taking over your entire spine.  Have them slower.  Maybe one every 5 years.  But if you don't listen, don't worry.  You'll make it through the early years of three screaming babies, depression, anxiety, horrible life choices before and after your fourth, and you'll come out on the other side of it.

#4.  Travel while you can.  Because once you start popping all those kids out, you're going to wish you'd gone on at least one cruise or taken at least one all inclusive trip to some exotic beach resort somewhere.  Though, if you've learned time travelling, I suppose you can do whatever you want, whenever you want.

#5.  Win the lottery.  That would make life right now a whole lot easier (financially anyway)!  Rig it somehow if you have to.  Figure out how to time travel and go into the future to find out what the winning numbers are, come back, and buy the ticket.

Bottom line, learn how to travel through space and time.
