I would say learn something you can do for yourself that will make you money, don't rely on studying alone because it probably wont help you much. I say this because I used to love doing graphic design when I was in high school and now I have my own web design company, while others are still trying to figure out wtf to do with their careers.

And fuck yes, playing SC makes you awesome in the office when compared to other people, you are like the only one that has 300 apms and move like a flash with hotkeying stuff on excel. You leave everyone else like "omg he's fast", AND you finish your job early and can do whatever you want with your time (as long as they dont see you lol)

Go to parties, ask girls out, do the things that scare you the most, never ever be afraid to fail, keep on trying and love the people in your life, they're only there for so long.
Once you play starcraft, everything else in life seems alot easier.

Actually the best advice i could have given to me (and today too) would be:

Life is too precious and beautiful to be taken seriously, just enjoy every second of it.

Well, I'm a senior in igh school now, but....

1) Run more man. You coulda been much better at cross country and especially track right now. Don't get lazy in the winter. You could have been legitly quite good.
2) HOLY CRAP wtf wtf wtf wtf wtf wtf wtf are you doing with girls man? Like, wtf? What were you doing? Way to get dumped by your girlfriend man. And then talking to like, 2 girls ever. I mean, TALK to people. Holy crap man.
3) Start iccup ninth grade....goggogogogogogogo.....but being on the computer all the time without being with friends and loving starcraft more than social circles is also probably what made you so retarded with 2 so....

Basic advice: Either to go get good at SC or to actually get good at socialising. Either choice woulda been fine, but do one of them. Don't be mediocre at both.

Regrets are pointless. Live your life without worrying about what you could have done, and just do it. Until someone invents a time machine this thread is also, pointless.

Maybe thinking about the advice you would give your high school self might prompt people to consider what advice their future selves would give to them in the present?
Maybe that might actually be quite useful?
Maybe a lot of things like SCBW are pointless? What, but you enjoy SCBW?
MAYBE SOME PEOPLE ENJOY THIS THREAD.

1) Get out more. Whatever you're going to be doing tonight may seem fun in the short run, but eventually it's going to be more fun to be doing it with a larger group of people. You can always come back to "alone time" but it's much harder to progress the other way.

2) Get your shit done on time. You're going to do it anyway, so it's a matter of learning things and doing them for full credit, or cramming things and turning them in late. Especially important in math, where concepts build on each other. (lol still don't know my unit circle and in calc 2. FML)

3) Get your ass in the weight room. Helped so much in so many areas of life after a remarkably short amount of time. Plus it's fun.

4) Money is made to be spent, but spend it on things that are going to last you. Nice clothes; furniture; car > Pokemon cards, Sunglasses you will probably lose, Vacation with people you now barely talk to.

Having followed these, I think I would be in a much different situation than I am right now; and I'm only a college Freshman! The worst part is, I really did know the first two; I just never had the determination or the balls to stick with them.


Pretty much this. Except that I think expensive sunglasses are totally worth my money. I wish I hadn't spent so much on clothing and other bullshit recently, tbh. I also think it's easier to develop a social circle once you're out of HS, because HS is so cliquey, and if you aren't immediately accepted you're pretty much fucked.

I would also tell myself to not fuck around for a year and a half working a dead end job, and putting myself two years behind on schooling. At the same time, missing all that stuff is what made me who I am today, and I'm starting to become happier with that person every day, so I really don't know if I would want to change anything that I've done... except for saving more money (Man, I would LOVE to have a nicer car right now, and not worry about acquiring 25k for school).

I would also say this: You got a dream... You gotta protect it. People can't do somethin' themselves, they wanna tell you you can't do it. If you want somethin', go get it. Period. -- which is how I'm trying to live life right now. I have a couple of dreams, and I'm moving toward them every day. My dream back then was to be a fighter, and I would have told myself to do whatever it took to become one, because looking back, I wish I wouldn't have wasted so much time not doing this... luckily, I'm still young and I've realized this all before it was too late.

Dude, you missed out. Your first relationship in or out of high school will be much the same. PLUS, girls are looking for more mature guys out of high school, and you're going to be caught up in that "me" mentality, and she'll dump you because you only think of yourself. I've seen that happen SO many times. The thing is, you can't get overly serious about HS relationships.. not having them is as bad as getting too serious, though.. you lack growth either way.
