    Go ahead and do ITT Tech. You'll end up doing computer stuff in 20 years anyways. This way you'll have expierence.

    Stay away from married ladies.. unless you're their husband.

    When your grandmother offers to pay for a trip to Europe, you should go, even if you don't really want to right now.

    Love more.
    Love yourself, love others, friends, neighbors, strangers.

    It doesn't do any good to keep your heart so locked up.

    Really, really, really think about your choices. The consequences most often have repercussions throughout your lifetime....some good, some not so good.

    I'd tell myself to be patient and to take more chances. I'd tell myself to stand up for myself every once in a while, whether it be to my parents, bullies, or so-called friends. I'd tell myself to have a little more fun and don't get stressed out about nonsense that you won't remember the next month. I'd tell myself to be less judgemental of others' choices. I'd tell myself to get out of my hometown sooner because the way it is in the Bible Belt isn't the way it is everywhere.
  • be yourself. weird, quirky, childish whatever. just own it.
    take the risks of speaking up.
    quit trying to please everyone else. please yourself!

    1. Go to college - yes someday you'll need a degree
    2. He isn't going to change
    3. Move South earlier
    4. Be true to yourself - it's going to pay off
    5. Adopt a brother at the same time - you'll never go back.

    Don't be friends with that girl...she will make you feel bad about yourself and second guess everything.
    Be there for your best friends.
    Don't be so hard to get along with.
    GO TO COLLEGE!
    You aren't stupid. You aren't fat. You're worth more than you know.
    Be happier.
    Stay active and learn to eat in moderation.
    Don't worry so much and enjoy.

    I'm happy how I ended up regardless...

    Stand up for yourself when your gut tells you too and don't let others get you down!

    Stay away from the junkfood even though it tastes so good!

    Don't stop going to the gym because you are in a relationship. You come first!

    - Spend even more time with your parents. You're going to lose them as a really young man.
    - Dude, you're only 10-15 lbs away from your ideal size. You're not fat. Finish this and maintain it.
    - Lots of people think you're pretty freaking hot. Trust them. Stop being your own worst enemy.
    - Work 10x harder.
    - Play 20x harder.

    Stop trying to make everyone else happy. All you're going to do is wear yourself out and be miserable.

    Don't be afraid to travel and try new things.

    Just because you can eat/not eat whatever/ whenever now doesn't mean you'll always be able to. Form a healthy relationship with food and exercise so you don't wake up one day wondering why you feel like crap and can't find anything to wear because nothing fits.

    You do not always need to be in a relationship or seek constant affection. Love yourself.

    DON'T DO ECT!!!

    Don't let doctors convince you the side effects will be worth it in the end, there are no magic pills.

    No more third-tenth chances for people. Give them the benefit of the doubt once, but don't be a fool.

    One more time, LOVE YOURSELF.
