Hello SG hoomans, it's been a while since I've properly posted! Boy I've missed you lot ♡ time to do some homework, ive been naughty!
Here are my five things I would have told myself at the ripe old age of 20 years old- 5 years ago now! Gosh I'm gettin old haha.
1. Your body, or what you do with it, does NOT define your worth. Say it again, say it louder, little Jess! In my teenage years i swung from one pendulum to another- a pendulum where my sexuality was the only thing that mattered in the eyes of someone I liked, and then would swing the other way of feeling yuck about expressing sexual desire. Now i know that neither of these polar opposites are healthy, and my worth is not just based around what i am sexuality. I am also smart, i have my art, i write and read, I'm into politics and science, and my sexuality and body are beautiful! All of these things only define my worth through MY eyes.
2. Get out of that relationship. Out of that degree. Explore what you want because it matters to you, not because you care what other people think (there's a theme here! Haha)
3. You will change your opinion on life by listening to others. Stop being so damn stubborn, open your eyes to everyone else's experiences!
4. On another body related note: you are not less beautiful because someone else is beautiful. I've cried so many times because of this. It's one of the main reasons I joined Suicide Girls- to appreciate beauty in Every. Single. Body Shape.
5. Invest more in laughter, and play. Not everything is so serious. Your 20s are for figuring it out. Relax.
@rambo @missy @lyxzen thankyou for the beautiful homework topic. I loved writing this and i hope something resonates with any of you SG friends reading this!
Ps. I changed my name from Peonypixie to Peoni- I felt the time was right for a shorter, cuter, snappier name. Plus it kind of rhymes with Pee on me, which is damn hilarious! Talk soon my loves, thank you for reading my rambles!
