Learn Italian... it's going to help you 7 years down the line.

Also don't buy that shitty Toshiba laptop for college, buy a Dell or something that won't overheat from playing Warcraft 3 -.-z

All the responsible and uneasy kids you look down to will have much easier time to establish their shit in the future. Stop being so fucking careless and do things you think about instead of waiting for better opportunity. Learn how to not be lazy and exercise in the morning. Don't spend all your money for worthless shit, especially not alcohol. Don't try to compare and compete with friends that have richass parents when you don't have the money, cause you will end up spending all your (hardly made) money for worthless shit again.

Be PROUD of being white, and never feel guilty for the indoctrination in the schools about your cultural heritage.. Your ancestors created many of the principles that lead to the democratic and technologically advanced societies we live in, be proud of that.

I went to a minority-white school in Sweden, and I used to bend my head alot to the muslims here. "Whitey", "white devil" etc. were common names to be called there.. Also, be yourself and use this one opportunity to harvest the benefits of life.

Start working out!
Is that a pylon or are you just happy to see me?

Get into art school when you're done with high school. It's not girly or faggy, and drawing kicks ass.

Go for it, you'll screw it up with her in ten years anyhow. Use the time you got.

1)Don't skip school! - this led to 1 extra year of community college before going to university

2)Balance gaming and study - much easier now in college, i just feel more responsible i guess

3)Exercise! - Started running summer after senior year, lost 50 pounds, helped me be less socially awkward

4)Don't worry about your future by being a music major. I stressed too much about this one, didn't think there were any jobs.

1. You know you need surgery. Get it now because it will be too late one day and you'll regret it.

2. Don't undermine your own success. Giving women power over your mind only destroys your chances. Daisy digs you; you just need to be willing to lead. Angela is really interested; don't clam up in front of her. Only you can fuck this up.

Furthermore, stop basing your actions with regards to girls on what you think your friends think. You are focusing on the wrong people; focus on yourself, the girl, and your 2 opinions. Forget the rest, otherwise you will end up using girls as an ego trip. This is no fun in any way.

3. Be discerning in your choice of friends and learn to be respectful but manly in everything that you do.

4. Fix your sleep schedule FFS! Observe discipline in waking up in the morning every day.

1) The girl you want to ask out will get sick the month and a half before, and continuing through to Prom. Change the past by finding out how she got sick and prevent it otherwise you will hate yourself during that duration.

I should talk to her, but I'm very far away and afraid she will think I'm too creepy.

2) Don't touch Starcraft, Or TeamLiquid! Wait, but that would only make me start sooner... Get a computer in your senior year, but figure out a way to... make the... thing only turn on... for three hours a day. Using parental controls and don't learn how to do a system restore... oh shit... uhh... well then... nothing else

edit ooh! I'd go back to the past twice 2) Your 11th grade science fair project on fuel cells and Chlamydomonas Reinhardtii to produce hydrogen gas... You need to add salt to your final solution to make the reaction work inside the stupid fuel cell. If it still doesn't work... give up. I mean it! I know you won't but give up! Tell your teacher you couldn't do the experiment, and give him the hydrogen and oxygen gas for him to test himself.

3) Don't worry too much about how I came to the past, actually, I think I'd rather talk to myself in my dreams so I would't worry about the physics too much.

Wow, I actually feel pretty good about myself right now

Actually I change everything I said to this. Except going back to tell myself not to do anything differently would also cause me to cease to exsist, so I'd rather not go back at all.

Gotta love luddites!
I think in our modern age technology has evolved to become more addictive. The things that don't give us pleasure aren't used as much. Work was never meant to be fun, but doing it makes us happier in the long run.

1. Don't invest too much time, money or emotions into high school relationships. As much as you think that they will work out, they don't.

2. Should have started working out while in high school. So many wasted years.

3. Be waaay more outgoing and social.

4. Make as many friends as humanly possible, not only from just my year.

Study less, don't decline invitations to parties just to study more, be more social, drink more alcohol, smoke more pot.
