Ourt High School Selves


Josie Leavitt - April 23, 2010

In case you missed it, there’s a great article by Sarah Mlynowski in Children’s Bookshelf called: The Future Is on the Line: YA Novelists Send Tweets Back to Their High School selves. I love this idea. Haven’t we all wanted to go back and talk to ourselves in high school? Make ourselves feel better, or worse, about something we did or didn’t do. Please check out this article and and send a tweet to yourself. Here’s what I would say to my high school self:
@josieleavitt pay more attention to algebra, it turns out you’ll need it every stinking day at work.
@josieleavitt Be nicer to everyone in 9th grade because 10th grade karma is a bitch.
What would you say?

    Ok, I’m a twenty-something and I don’t know how to tweet, but I would write:
    Don’t take Driver’s Ed no matter what your dad says. A small decrease in car insurance is not worth a lifelong driving phobia.
