Today i'm gonna share 50 things I want to teach my daughters..
I started to thinking about this after my husband and I have the awkward fight last week then I realize how many things I need to teach them while I still have the chance...
But since both of my daughter are still too young to understand, I decide to write and give to both of them when they reach teenagers age and able to understand about it..
And since I do have a blog and I would like to share something about this on my blog to so that they can read it when the time is come (cheewwaaaa.. macam la blog saya ni ada followwer hahahaha)..
and yeah so here are the 50 things i want to teach my daughters....
1. NEVER use scented tampons.
2. Always look people in the eye when you’re talking to them.
3. Don’t scrimp on wine, perfume, or handbags. They say a lot about a woman.
4. Grilled cheese sandwiches and macaroni and cheese are to be eaten with ketchup. Eggs are not.
5. You are not better than anyone, and no one is better than you.
6. Just because you can fit in the extra-small, doesn’t mean you should be wearing it.
7. It’s not the quantity of friends that matter. It’s the quality.
8. You can tell a lot about someone by their shoes. Make sure yours are always polished.
9. When people talk to you, LISTEN to them.
10. Make sure you always have a little “eff you” money tucked away for those times when life isn’t treating you the way you want it to.
11. See the world. And pack Imodium.
12. Live to eat, not the other way around.
13. People remember how you make them feel. Never forget that.
14. Don’t gossip. Except with me. I love that stuff.
15. Go with your gut. It’s very rarely wrong.
16. Go to university, live in residence, and have fun. But get good grades. A degree will take you places.
17. Take responsibility for your actions and apologize when you’re in the wrong.
18. Don’t be afraid to fail.
19. If he makes you cry anything but happy tears, he’s not worth it.
20. Repeat after me: I. Can. Accomplish. Anything.
21. Don’t sleep around. Guys may have fun with sluts, but they don’t marry them.
22. Don’t be a sore loser.
23. If you decide you prefer women to men, your Dad and I will not care, nor will we love you any less. Just promise me you’ll take me to a gay bar. I know I’d make you proud.
24. A little bit of weed is okay, but don’t smoke cigarettes, and never do anything chemical.
25. Don’t take yourself too seriously.
26. A shot of vodka before shopping for swimwear makes the whole experience much more pleasurable.
27. I don’t care how young you are: if you’ve been drinking, call me. I’ll get you and your friends home safely. No questions asked.
28. Download Miles Davis’ album, Kind of Blue.
29. Never judge people you don’t know unless you’ve walked a mile in their shoes.
30. Don’t let a day go by without listening to music.
31. If you’re not married to him, don’t have unprotected sex with him.
32. The world is too small a place to be a jerk to anyone (unless he was a jerk first).
33. When wearing pantyhose, always have a back-up pair in your purse.
34. Don’t be afraid to go out without make-up on. I imagine it must be quite liberating.
35. Wear sunscreen.
36. Always bring your own dessert when you go to Gran and Grandad’s for dinner.
37. Learn how to say “NO”.
38. Read lots of books.
39. When it comes to relationships, don’t settle. Wait for the one that takes your breath. Like I did.
40. Rules are made to be broken. Except mine.
41. I’ve always got your back.
42. If you’re not comfortable talking about it, you shouldn’t be doing it.
44. Never go to bed mad. And don’t tell your partner everything.
45. Learn how to cook. I didn’t, and we both know how that turned out.
47. Always have something that’s just for you, be it writing, music, crafting, or something equally awesome. And make time for it. It’ll do wonders for you.
48. Never lose your sense of humor.
49. Even when I’m gone, I’ll always be with you.
50. Everything is going to be okay.
