What would I tell my teenage self, or my daughter?

This week a question posted to a blog was what would I tell my teenage self? This is such an interesting thing to think about....what I would have told myself and will one day tell my princesses is:
1. Do not rush growing up.....you have your whole life out there, enjoy these moments!
2. You do not have to have a boyfriend to feel value or self worth
3. Listen to your parents, they really do want whats best for you!
4. Go to college as soon as you finish high school....so much easier!
5. Do not walk away from your faith
6. Keep a strong moral character, be honest, people will respect this about you!
7. Believe in yourself and know you can do anything!!!
8. Hold on to friendships, some of them may be around for a lifetime!
