FunnySexy’s 1st Year

Sooo… after 12 months and 52 posts, the 26th finally marked the 1st anniversary of my FunnySexy blog. FTW! I’m glad to have met many people through this blog and I hope to keep my 2 readers happy for another funnysexy year. <- wth so showbiz ew.

But that’s not the highlight of my week, really. You see, I turned a year older on the 24th. Not excited about it one bit but it can’t be helped. I srsly feel old. I mean 2 years ago I took delight at seeing people’s faces when they find out how young I was to be doing what I do. But now, they ask me and kinda just… nod.

However, after reading Tuesdays with Morrie, I realized one shouldn’t be afraid of growing old. There were a lot of things I’ve learned the past couple of years that made me the person that I am. If I was stuck at being 13 for the rest of my life then it wouldn’t be so fun, would it? So I have no choice but to embrace my age and just make the most out of it.

And so, to be dramatic and shit, I decided for the sake of this post to list the things I would want to tell my 13 year old self if we get the chance to meet each other and maybe give her a pat on the back with a grin on my face. I bet she’d be soooo freaked out at how awesome she’d turn out to be. Nakanamp!

- LOL at your high school friends when they say you’d be the first one to lose your virginity and prolly get knocked up at 18. LOL very, very hard.

- You’d fall in love. Twice. Unrequitedly. In both times, you’d have your heart broken real bad but don’t go slashing your wrists just yet. Things will be fine and you’d write a lot of songs/scripts/poems because of them.

- Please cut down on your romantic-comedy chic flicks. And Dawson’s Creek. Yeah. Stop watching those, they’re bad for your sanity.

- Never ever let people tell you that you can’t be whatever you want. You’d be on TV eventually… Promise.

- Take care of your skin and and teeth. And do shampoo your hair, please.

- I know it’s passe and all but your parents only want the best for you and you’re just too much an adolescent to realize that. I’ll stab your eyes if you break their hearts and make ‘em cry.

- The Backstreet Boys will eventually be unpopular, hard it is to believe. Watch out for a group called Jonas Brothers.

- Don’t even give smoking a try. It can get addicting and you might end up consuming a pack a day (specifically Philip Morris blue).

- Worry not, you won’t look like that forever.

- Appreciate all the souls you meet in your life. People will come and go and you have to get used to that fact. What’s important is you leave your mark on them so they won’t forget you.

- Never ever let go of your faith. In the end, it’s all you that you have. He will take care of you, I assure you that.

- Funny is going to be the new sexy so keep that sense of humor and work on your diva impersonations.

Sucks to be 13, doesn’t it? So much angst, so much identity crises, so much questions left unanswered. Boy am I glad I’m much older now and done with the whole puberty thing!
