What would you say to your 15 year old self?

Mumsnet's 15th birthday is fast approaching (what'll we WEAR?). And that put those of us at MNHQ to thinking - if, by the magic of some time travelling device, we could speak to our 15-year-old selves - what words of wisdom would we impart?

I would tell my 25 year old self to stop dicking around, put some effort into school, and stop worrying about everything.

I'd also tell myself to grow my hair as the short look isn't a winner on you.

I would tell myself that I was beautiful and had a lovely figure, and not to spend all night worrying about bitchy girls at school because in the long run it doesn't matter

Stop acting as if you know everything because you know very little
Don't lose your virginity on a park bench
Your friends aren't the centre of the universe, stop dickin around in school because you need qualifications to get a JOB
Hair mascara is not a good look
Have some self respect

I'd say work a lot harder at school.
