Dear sweet, innocent Elise


a girl, a boy and me tagged me yesterday...


The rules:

1. Link back to the person who tagged you.

2. Imagine you could send a letter back in time to yourself, when you were 13 years old, what would you write to yourself?

3. Tag 5 people to do this blog

I like this meme, its original and interesting to think about.... Okay here goes:


Dear sweet, innocent Elise,


This is a letter from your 20 something self. You've just moved house and you've spotted the cute boy next door. He's 16 years old and he doesn't want to go out with you so don't follow him or bug him in anyway. You're only going to cause yourself embarrassment. You don't "really, really love him more than anything in the world" you don't even know him yet!


Consequently do not pluck your own eyebrows to appear more grown up. You'll never get them even and you will look awful for weeks. If you're desperate, go to a beauty salon and ask them to do it for you.


Do not wear mini skirts and cropped tops to appear more grown up. It makes you look slutty not 16. Wearing a long coat does not disguise your slutty clothes so don't try to get away with it by quickly sneaking past the living room. You make it way too obvious and you get caught. Needless to say your father will not be happy with you. (I know he's always angry at you but this time its really bad!)


Gemma is the one that spread that rumour about you kissing Bradley. Everyone knows that you didn't so don't worry about it. Gemma is just jealous because Joshua likes you. Yes you heard me, Joshua with the deep blue eyes really likes you. He tells you when you bump into him at a pub years later. By this time he has a girlfriend and you have a boyfriend and you don't really want to be with each other.


Your 20 something self is a very happy person at the moment. I have a good job, great friends, an amazingly sexy boyfriend and lots of hot sex!!Oops sorry didn't mean to scare you!


Stay true to yourself

That is a very cool meme - it allows us to find out a lot more about our fellow bloggers. Well done. :-) x

Thanks Elise! This will be fun. I'll have to do it later today as I have some family commitments to take care of first.

Check out my "Santa Claws" poem at Poetikat's.

Luv ya,
Kat

I enjoy this meme. I tend to stay far away from them, but even I did it.

Pixie said...

Tequila Mockingbird said...

i did this one too, even though i'm not that big of a fan of memes. loved your letter!

Juliana said...

Hi Elise, this morning i read this tag :o) and just now at the evening i got this tag from Michelle Hix hehehe...

Ha ha, oh God, I didn't realize how young 13 really was until I started checking out this meme (both yours and my own). Were we ever really those silly little girls? It doesn't feel all that long ago, but we're all worlds away from those physical experiments and heartaches.

Unknown said...

Aaaah. More homework. I'll try my best.

A Girl, A Boy, and Me said...

Lol, I'm glad I wasn't the only boy stalker at 13.

Thanks for playing!

linda said...

That is a good meme - my letter would be pages long. Soooo many pages. Sigh..............

Punk Picasso said...

what a clever idea for a meme! i may have to do that some time... problem is, i'm only 17!

but then again, if your 16 year old self had gotten that advice, would she have followed it? and would that have changed who you are today?

one can only imagine :)

I am glad you enjoyed the meme I made up, I am collecting these and will publish them to my website.

SheBee said...

Awww this is so awesome, man! Someone tag me! I want to do it!

nice letter. I'd go back and lie to myself about stuff. tell myself I'm a famous actor doing supermodels. then i'd take acting classes when i'm 13 and maybe actallly start to date super models and actresses. It's a retro active way to get higher quality chicks.

~~Wow!
What a letter!

~~You're so hot...and, 16...

('nough said. I'm no paid-ro-file!)..

..It's been way-too-long since I've dropped in. You're in with the Swiss, and I workin' my butt off!

Merry Christmas, Elise! (spank*)
