Letter to my 13 year old self

It seems I was blissfully ignorant of what was going on with the letter to my 13 year old self thing going around. Well, I've been tagged by Kawaria, so here goes:-


Dear Bobby,

Wassup, its tough being the youngest guy in class isn't it? Dont worry. You never will grow much facial hair so quit worrying about it. Being younger than everyone else will pay off later, you'll have an impressive amount of experience for someone your age one day.

Avoid beautiful girls named Njeri, they have a tendancy to break hearts.
It will be difficult but you need to MAKE SURE you go for "beats of the season" you will NEVER regret it.

Some of the guys you are friends with are arseholes and some of them will be your friends till your late twenties, I wont name names, just choose who you spend your time with wisely.

You like to play around with gadgets, torches, radios, Mums jewelry box (you will get the beating of your life, but the box will be fine for years to come) tear them down and build the up again. Dont ever stop, that trait, the burning desire to know how things work will be an asset one day.

Play around with the comps in the computer lab, one day they'll do even cooler things than multiplayer "Doom".

Work hard in school but always remember to have fun.
Bonitas, Scientia, Disciplina
You and sports that don't involve a ball don't mix, just don't. Really, do not.
Learn how to play chess, the earlier, the better.

Be good to your Aunts and Uncles, they will help you alot in the years to come. Be nice to mum, she has your back like you can't believe.

Raphael, your neighbour, will not make it to his 21st Birthday, I know its sad but be there for the dude, make sure you do your part to ensure he lives a good life.

Ahenda will grow up to be a breathtakingly beautiful woman. Pay a little more attention to her now.

All in all, enjoy being a kid, life gets tougher when you grow up but its still lots of fun.

Yes kid, listen to your older self. Not much facial hair will develop. But it's true, being underestimated is what will get you ahead. *sigh* Really wish we could actually pass these letters on to our younger selves! The trouble we would be saved! But then again, it means that the letters would not exist in the first place.... O my head.....

Things always get complicated when you factor in Time-travel!! Our experiences in life the good AND the bad shape who we are today. Eliminate the bad stuff and you'll never build character

Thank you :-)
