Wouldn't change much, honestly. Even the endless hours i spent in front of a computer because i developed some really good relationships while doing so which i won't ever regret.

The only advice you people should be giving your younger selves is:

- Try to put yourself in other peoples' perspectives a bit more
- Continue being awesome

Don't take useless subjects like calculus, chemistry and physics if you're not going to do them at university. Waste of fucking time learning all that bullshit only to realise that it wasn't necessary for a law degree.

Don't be afraid of things like detention - wag more classes. I can't believe how seriously I used to take high school and how much I feared the authorities of teachers, only to find out later in life that they are one of the lowest paid professions in society and really don't know very much at all.

all this time, I've lived in hope of telling you how sorry I am, I've fought armies, just to have this chance, but now, there's nothing I can say that's good enough

Try to understand how other people see things. Different priorities have different costs. Don't listen to over-competitive parents; you'll unfairly transfer the animosity to your peers.
Go to college in another country.

Advice is hard, it's often meaningless without context and experience. Like I might want to tell myself to learn more reflectively, but without challenging enough material there would be no impetus. I'd also tell myself to go live in a 3rd world country, but I would have had no interest in high school.

Oh yeah, another thing - work out as much as possible and get all the chicks, so that when you're 50 your only regret would be some vague thing that nobody actually gives a damme about.

they are far from the lowest paid, i suppose some of them can make pretty shit but my aunt teaches elementary and she makes 5 figures

And alot alot of them are very intelligent people
Never attribute to malice that which can be adequately explained by stupidity.

1. Teach myself that everything takes time and hardwork. Nothing grows on trees and success doesn't come overnight.

2. Save. I've squandered so much money. And it wasn't on useful stuff either, mostly BS that I never used or didn't need.

3. Sleep. I think that during my teens I must have averaged 3-4 hours a night. Mostly just watching television.

If i could give advice to myself in High School, i would say keep doing what you're doing.
Do you know why we make mistakes and we why screw up?
So you can tell other people about it and share what you experienced
Do you know why they don't listen to your advice and screw up?
Because life is a journey where you slow down and speed up and you can never enjoy it to the fullest, if you don't screw up and hitch hike or beg on the streets or waste hundreds of dollars in high school on things as useless as a dead dingo's donga
................ its because there is no shortcut in life........
everyones journey is different so don't feel bad screwing up, its just a different book on a different shelf.

5 figures? Maybe you ment to say 6 figures which is prerry impressive for a teacher.

Agree on the intellignce, a few of my teachers had masters degrees and most of them were very smart people.

Depending when you read this, start playing music. If you have started (nice one), then get singing lessons and fucking stick to them. You'll regret it if you don't. Music will make you deeply happy.

When you get to sixth form (16-18), conform like crazy. Don't stand up for your indefensible, badly worked out childish views. Just wear the clothes others wear, get a haircut and don't fight it. It's not worth the pain.

If you were too fucking arrogant to take the last piece of advice, then just hang on and work hard..your gap year will change everything.

At university go to the Indian restaurant by the station as it's amazing. Don't find this out in your last week.

Above all, don't try and reach a point of security. You can't, everything ends no matter what you do. Just enjoy the beautiful relationships when they happen and while they last. Don't be bitter.

It is what you read when you don't have to that determines what you will be when you can't help it.
