Go to more parties and stop second guessing that all the friends I had were not really friends at all. Oh that and more girls too.

I went to a very white high school and was one of very few minorities. I thought my life would be easier, and I would fit in better, if I were white. So I resolved to hating on my own race as a means of fitting in better. Probably one of the dumbest things I've ever done.

sort of reminds me when i was young and a lot of teachers considered me smart and i enjoyed reading books and learning but being smart for other kids my age just seemed to have such a negative meaning to it that i started to hate being called smart or looking smart that i stopped learning and now all these years of not studying its coming back to bite me in the ass.

@ Jathin
Funny you say that. I'm white and I went to a mostly white school and I can't say I cared much for hanging out with most of the white kids. I found it much more rewarding to hang out with Asians. Today all my best friends are Asian and I can honestly say that it was the best social investment I've ever made. Anyways though I was referring to when you said "you'll be glad you're not in a few years" which I felt was insinuating there was something wrong with being white and I'm curious to know exactly what that is.
Never pass up a good thing.

Dear Highschool Self,

I was writing this to tell you that you're about to do a lot of things that will lead to the utter destruction of any sort of sex life you ever could have had. That's right, you're about to go without sex for an unknown number of years. You're also going to spend 95% of your time awake at the computer. Keep reading if this doesn't sound appealing.

Everyone is about to lie to you about college. Don't listen to them, they're wrong. I've attached a number of interesting colleges that you should apply to. You like Math and Physics, it's just a fact, so keep going with that. Trust me. When the advisers ask "What major do you want to sign up for?" just tell them "Physics major" and if you want to double major, just make sure it's in something math related, okay?

As for where to go: AWAY. Get as far away from home as you can, people will just bug the crap out of you there, trust me. Go to the opposite ends of either I-95 or US-1, seriously. Florida is not the promised land, and you could do very well in a colder climate. You could even go to Denver and ski during the winter, wouldn't that be nice? Trust me, it would be nice.

As for women, you should have more fun. As a matter of fact, enjoy life more, you don't do that enough. Go through Urban Dictionary and see if you can complete a number of the new and exciting sexual definitions in there... It'll be hilarious.

Oh, and Pokemon is STILL cool in the future, but only the first 151 of them. The Final Fantasy games aren't bad, in fact, they have decent plot. Dune is a great series, perhaps you should actually continue reading the rest of them and not wait 6 years, douche bag.

And lastly, the winning lottery numbers for the first Tuesday in January for the next decade are: ...

Love,
Me.

PS: Get production/science skills in EVE and as many R&D agents as you can, trust me.

You frequent a SCBW forum, chances are you're the kind that likes hanging out with Asians more .

Its really easy to tell your past self what to do, because you don't have to do it :p Who here has thought how wonderful it would be to go back and start fresh and do everything right? Who here realizes you would do the exact same thing again, because life isn't as easy as "go to the gym and then do your homework"?

Edit: 1) masturbate less.
Excuse me hun, but what is your name? Vivian? I woke up next to you naked and, uh, did we, um?

You idiot! The marks on her wrist are because shes crazy, PERIOD. not because shes crazy about you! Stay away from her she WILL ruin your life in a few years and it is not better to have loved and lost to have never loved at all, because if you never loved and lost that crazy bitch you would of loved someone much more worth your time and affection.
Why?

Dear Highschool BuGzlToOnl,

      I can't really offer any advice to you, continue as you are. Everything will work out and you'll be happy in the way your future self turned out no matter what. All the stupid mistakes you will make and all the things you will or will not do will define you into the person that is writing this. This is why I have chosen not to include anything of value which may serve as a warning to future events that will happen. Instead I say a simple, "hello". There will be certain situations that will make you wish you were dead, but don't worry everything works out in the end. I should probably tell you to study a little bit more, but I knowing me won't listen to you.

Sincerly,
      Future BuGzlToOnl
If you want to make God laugh, tell Him your plans.

I was kind of hoping you'd say, "Think twice before you pick your TL.net alias"


Its actually LToonL which was a clan and Bugz from Bugz Bunny.

In my head it was always bugz-toon, didn't come to realize the alternating capitalization all the way through and seen as bugzitooni until YEARS later.

EDIT: Don't regret though. :p
