First trip back would be to 7th grade and I would tell me not to fall for the teasing, the cruel remarks and the labels.(don't worry, kid-those same guys, when 'adults', will be wishing they could get near those long legs! And the skin WILL clear up!) Second trip would be to last year of highschool, where I could tell me, my father and everyone else who tried to discourage my dreams (and almost succeeded) to ignore them, be strong and go for it, no matter what.No money in Graphic Art??) Last trip before heading home would be to 1977-when I second-guessed myself and turned down the chance to go to Paris on the start of what would have been a modelling career.
