Have you ever wanted to peek in someone's diary? What advice would you give your sixteen-year-old self?
I'll be doing a deep dive on old diary entries from high school+, reflecting on random experiences. Then you and I will hopefully figure out if there were any lessons learned along the way ♡ It might be fun, it might suck...we'll never know until we try. (I bet that's Lesson #1. Looks like we are already on the right track. Look at us go ☆)

A lot of my adventures as a teenager included a bunch of mistakes made with Jessica. Sometimes I think back and I don't even know how we are alive today to tell the stories. I bet she thought she would take most of these to her grave, but alas, podcast first. Sorry, BFF. You signed the release LOLLLLL. I wonder if her mom or family knew about this one. I can't remember if we ever told them about it.
Is 20 years too late to apologize? I think not. Karen, it was us. I found remnants of the incident long after. French fries in the backseat. Coke stained books. A thousand apologies. I'm so sorry. Hope you still love me. lol

Episode Four- Quick Sip of Tea on Dear Sixteen-Year-Old Me
Quick and painless episode.
Not a dishy one, but necessary. I give you the Five W's (maybe I only give you like, four plus one H, but who is counting?) on Dear Sixteen-Year-Old Me. Who just up and starts a podcast? For what?
Bonus content to come cuz even though this one was short, the extras were entirely too long. There's always so much more where that came from.
QOTD: "Part of being young is not exactly knowing why you do some of the things you do. It's by exploring your life and experimenting or making mistakes and learning from them hopefully that you start to forge an identity." - Stephen Chbosky
SOTD: "In the City" by Hanson because I used to adore them. Never thought that would end, but here we are. Life is full of surprises, ain't it?

Episode Three- Bobby with the Big Ears
I introduce to you, my Dad: Bobby Lee Molina, Jr. I talk about some of the things he taught me as a child and how my parents choosing to divorce affected my whole life without me realizing it. I'm sure realizing it now! Sheeeeesh!
I also talk about what they did right (in my humble opinion) and how I try my best to live life without any regrets. Keyword: T-r-y. "I'm not perfect, but who are we kidding? Neither are you." Name that movie.
QOTD: "They shared the weight of memory." A quote from a book called The Things They Carried by Tim O'Brien. Find it here (https://amzn.to/3s8LRDg).
SOTD: "All Day Music" by War. Will never be able to hear that song without instantly thinking of my dad.
Hope you enjoy!

Episode One- My Golden Birthday and The Poop Keychain
Hi! My name is Chanelle. When I was a kid, I used to write everything down. A lot of it was utterly ridiculous. That's the stuff I'll be sharing with you. In Episode One, I discussed my 16th birthday party, my tumultuous relationship with my mother, and how my life was ruined because of a stinkin' Poop Keychain. The Quote of the Day (#QOTD) is, "Be the person you needed when you were younger." Hope you enjoy!
Also, if you have not heard of the bands I mentioned in this episode, please look them up. Specifically, AAF's cover of "Smooth Criminal" (Song of the Day, #SOTD). TYSM

Episode Two- Boys, Engines and Underwear
In this episode, I take you through a day in the life of a girl taking Beginner's Auto Shop. Which is essentially the Groundhog's Day of the Worst Day Ever.
Content warning(s): a little bit of cussing; a lot a bit of sexist, gender stuff. To make it worth your time, I included lots of feel good stories about how to advocate for yourself and when you'll know friendships are going to last. Hope you enjoy!
The song of the episode is "Fly" by Sugar Ray. If you haven't heard of Sugar Ray, please, at the very least, listen to that tune for reference. It defined a whole generation. I wish I was kidding. TYSM!
