- Don’t get that haircut.
- Rebel by asking a friend to hem your skirt, rather than by hiding from Mrs. Potts in the nurse’s office. The one will make your social life a lot better, the other will just make you have to work that much harder to pass Algebra.
- Be nicer to the boys who like you. Regardless of what you’ve been told, they really are more afraid of you, than you are of them.
- You are not fat. You are not even chubby. However, you are short, and you will never get much taller. Ditch the plans to be a supermodel now, and concentrate on something that doesn’t require so much length of leg.
- You feel like an outsider because every teenager feels like an outsider. I don’t know why I would bother telling you this because it is impossible for you to hear me around the tidal waves of hormone washing through your brain, but it is true.
- Those girls you think you’d like to be friends with: Go for it. When you grow up, you’ll find out they wanted to be friends with you, too.
- Those girls your mother keeps telling you aren’t really your friends: Listen to her. It will save you a lot of heartache.
- Read more Voltaire.
- Paint more.
- Try to get some sleep, kid.
