You're doing fine and things will get a lot better when you move out of the parent's place. When you finally do move out, don't overload your schedule trying to do too many things at once and sleeping almost never... I know you feel invincible, but your body does have its limits-- and it will punish you if you stretch things too far.

Also, Ayn Rand and Dave Sim are both batshit crazy. The sooner you recognize this the faster you'll lower your asshole-quotient.

I didn't mean to make it seem like there's anything wrong with being white, my apologies if it came off as racist/derogatory (I was writing to myself from myself; being PC and using careful wording slipped my mind). It's more of a personal thing, that I feel my not being white has benefited me in many ways (socially).

On one hand, I'm a part of the "ideal minority" group (namely Indians + Asians). We're perceived as productive members of society. (Streotypically) We're smart and hard working. That's a sterotype I've enjoyed a lot of benefits from, whether or not I deserved it.

On the other, I find that other immigrants warm up to me very quickly just by nature of my having colored skin. Some of the random conversations I've had and stories I've heard -- I definitely feel like I would've missed out on them if these people weren't so easily willing to volunteer it.


Aw ok I see. Yeah that makes sense, I actually grew up in Mexico and when people find out that I have that background they tend to be more open to me than they would be otherwise. I personally don't think it's right but it's just the way things are I guess.
Never pass up a good thing.

Lol OP, a few of your pieces of advice are written like Yoda said em... Less star-wars as well?

... except don't think about thinking about everything twice or you'll end up in an infinite loop of thought and never actually get anything done.

I'm still in high school. Luckily I have a decent amount of money saved up (I never spend my money...) The only thing I wish I would start doing is taking my time to learn something, instead of playing SC and Chess all day. I want to get into programming, and I have all the materials to start learning and creating, but for some reason I just won't do it. Damnit -_-

-Question the history and economic textbooks.
-You don't need a 4.0 to get a good job, start listening to people online who will teach you how to start businesses.
-Learn mnemonic devices that involve creating experience to memorize information -- this will save you hours.
-You don't need to be smart to succeed in studies or the real world, you just need to develop the skills to be very efficient. Unfortunately, these skills are not taught in most schools, so again, use the internet.
-Relationships and eating junk food with friends all day is basically a waste of time. Maybe once in awhile, but work on your own life...not procrastination.

skip more math classes. I shouldn't have to take calculus at 3rd year. I could've easily took it my 2nd or if I'm ballsy, 1st year and gone to do more useful math then...
sigh
Life is run, it is dance, it is fast, passionate and BAM!, you dance and sing and booze while you can for now is the time and time is mine. Smile and laugh when still can for now is the time and soon you die!

1) The best players play on Kali, get your ass there.
2) Relax, dont take life so serious, it's not such a big deal.
3) Buy condoms.
4) Lift weights, it really pays off when it comes to double poling.

EDIT:I assume advice in sportsbetting and stocks is not included.
I have the best fucking lawyers in the country including the man they call the Malmis.

Dear self, forget what your parent's tell you, you can always do better. Walking the fine line between social and academic success is mutually destructive. 9th and 10th grade are for padding your gpa, not settling with A-'s. Stick with track, join math team now not as a senior and this time study for your SAT's. That is unless you get into the college you want April 1st; if that's the case, good job!
