"Screw acne, man."
I'd tell myself to focus on schoolwork cause it'll bite you in the ass in the future for being lazy with schoolwork. Also don't get engaged at 18 the guy is a jerk. Just save yourself the trouble and sadness of a tool fiance and just avoid cody at all costs.
Also, dress better and stop hanging out with the stoners/punks.
Me - "Hey"
Young me - "Ummm... Hey"
Me - "Oh, did I mention I'm awesome?"
Young me - "No, you did not"
Me - "Don't worry about it kid ... You'll get there." *Dramatically walk away yet pause thoughtfully and turn slowly, with the sun silhouetting me in a most dramatic fashion* "Hey... Good luck"
Yah... pretty cool, I know. Touching, yet simple, in an elegant kind of way. And the real kicker is... Does young me even know old me is me? Yah, its pretty deep, think about it.
I'd kick the :bou::bou::bou::bou: out of my younger self. I don't think we would get along, he'd give me attitude and I'd have to smack him for it.
Younger: Get a haircut
Older: Stop being such an idiot
HAH! :D!Quote:

I'd give my younger self a lot of advice on how to avoid that stupid little depressive stage I went through. I'd probably also tell my younger self that he's gay, so that he's confused about his sexuality for a while and doesn't get involved with girls until he's mentally able to function.
My younger self would approve, because I've turned out pretty good. However, he won't know about all the bad things ;D
I could tell myself that these are some of your worse years, but some of the best is yet to come. I could say that some things that may seem hard to solve now, will be easier to figure out later on. I could say that you (i.e. little me) will meet new people along the way that may try to dissuade you from accomplishing your goals, but to not allow this to keep you from trekking forward. I could say all of this, but at age 10-12, I didn't need this advice for it's something I've always known.
I was surprised it took over a dozen posts to get to the obvious answer. :pQuote:

Oh, and before you go, take your dad's belt and his gun (the drawer in his bedside table, the key is under his pillow) and dump them somewhere along the way.
Oh, and don't take guitar lessons. Just learn to use the internet properly and teach yourself.
I'd kick his/my ass because I made some really stupid choices in my younger days.
Stop falling in love so easily! Advice - if you have never spoken to someone you probably do not love them! XD And if they ignore you unless they are drunk they do not like you, they are silly.
I kinda miss my younger self in a lot of ways though.
I'd tell myself to do what I really want to do. Enjoy life, don't worry so much about the future, and don't listen to other people. ~*~Follow UR HEART~!~*~ n_n
Also 12-year-old me, you have got to start paying attention to what you're wearing and stop letting your mom pick out your clothes. And ew, zits. And ew, do something with that hair. And get contacts.
That's a good question.
I think I'd tell my 12 year old self to be more out-going and less shy.
EDIT: OMG XANDER!!!
