If you could go back in time to when you were 19 years old, what would you do differently??
I am 19 and I often wish I could go back to when I was 14 and change a lot of stuff. So now I am asking you.
If you could go back in time to when you were my age, what would you do differently between 19 and however old you are now?

Work out, and smoke less pot. Or at least smoke less often. Never start smoking, (I quit since, woo!)
Work out, or stay active, get a bike, get into mountain biking or bmx - or some other similar hobby that gets you out!
Just make sure you enjoy it, physical activity brings about a great quality of life!
Eat good!

It's okay man, you're alive for a reason. For every breath somebody takes, someone else takes their last.
So try your best to be positive, we're still alive, make the most of it.

school and drugs.
i would take school seriously and stay away from drugs minus a few bowls and beers. i wouldnt smoke every day and i wouldnt drink every day. i would stay away from EVERYTHING else.
go to school. work on your education. you want to work hard during your 20s so you can enjoy the rest of your life. why burn out through your 20s then struggle the rest of your life.

I'm 26 n if I could go back I would travel to my 16 year old days. I would have further my college education sooner . I would also have not have gotten arrested for conspiracy to sell a schedule 1. Which does not particularly affect my life now. I'm pretty successful as it sits and wouldn't change it for the world but if I could.... That would be it.

Ignore the garbage your peers throw at you. YOu don't have to do, not do, like, not like, listen to, talk to, go to, or do - anything, ever. Unless you have a very tight group of very close long-term friends, odds are most of the people you see on a daily basis now will be void from your daily life by the time you're 25. new ones will come in, theyll be good too - dont worry.
Do what you love, love everyone, and leave each person you interact with better off than when you found them.

You know, I don't think I would change a thing.
If I went back and said to myself change xyz, I wouldn't be here right now.
Sure I made a lot of mistakes, missed a lot of pussy(cause I am shy), and pretty much screwed up big time, but my life is pretty good.
If I went back and changed anything....
Where would I be now.

Keep the boozing down. Smoking is a bad habit unless done with drinking . But really from 18-23 I had great times with less responsibility. Enjoy it now. Teenage years arnt worth the effort to dwell on.

Hmmm...here's a few:
Quit being such a tool. Girls don't like needy pussies.
Also, get some confidence. You're a cool guy.
Date April. She's crazy but she's also wicked hot and is nuts about you, you're fuckin 19 what the fuck do you really have to lose. Stop over-thinking things.
Quit smoking weed before you go out in public. You don't realize it, but it makes you a social retard.
Doing drugs doesn't make you look cool.
Go to class and do your homework. Seriously.
Call your parents and sister more often. They love you and they miss you.
When a girl goes out of her way to talk to you, and smiles, she FUCKING LIKES YOU. She isn't just being nice, you retard. Ask her out. ______________________
28 now. I wouldn't have listened to my future self anyway.
Ugh, I fuckin sucked at 19.

you need at least an equivalent of a HS diploma to be eligible for some forms of employment. other then working in Retail, or Factory work, and even then still... it totally depends on the employer.
why does anyone need to check anything anyway? a piece of paper proves nothing, a goddamn stint through dumbland trying to prove you can follow instructions and can be employed, doesn't MEAN anything. only it does, because this world is inhabited by animals, and idiots.

Here's what you do.
Go to an OpenCourseWare school. Take as many IT classes as you can find, then fucking fake it 'til you make it. Put on your resume that you have a fucking college degree, and don't feel bad about it. There was a chick that made it to be the CEO of fucking Yahoo who lied about her credentials. Lie about the High School too, if you have to.

well, then i guess i wouldn't change a thing, considering i don't believe in our education system being very open ended and useful for anything other then proclaiming what rules there oughta be for people... sorta like Governments and Religious institutes.
oh well, i live on this idiotic planet so...

thanks for the vote of confidence. 
but still why have all the walls, when it doesn't prevent anything but progress and stability for a sum of individuals? or at least, when it tries to appear that way? i mean, it's pointless. it's simply pointless.

When I was 19 there was only one decision that I wonder if I made correctly.
I was riding the bus back home from my local community college and it was the day before our spring break vacation. I only had one final test the next day (in the morning). One of my best friends at the time, stopped the bus, walks in, points his finger at me and says: "M, let's go. Come with me so you can pack your shit and leave. We're going to Mexico for spring break!" I grabbed my backpack and stood up and then I remembered that I had that one, final test the next day. I explained why I couldn't and he totally understood. He said: "Aww! It's not going to be the same without you! YOU ARE coming with me next time though. Even if I have to kidnap your ass!" Then we gave each other a "man-hug" and then he left. I passed the test the next day and I was 3rd in my class (which was a bittersweet feeling).
I always wondered what would have happened if I just didn't give a fuck - for one brief moment in time - and just went with the flow.
I still have no regrets, but that always left me wondering.

Ugh, I fuckin sucked at 19.
lol - I cut some stuff out to leave what I really relate to.
For me the whole 'girls' issue is a big deal. I had no confidence; I let my ego create all sorts of justifications or reasons for not initiating things with girls out of fear and a lack of self-confidence - then afterward, I would eventually see that I was just being a scared little pussy while everyone else was enjoying the thing I wanted most - to explore the opposite sex more deeply. I had girlfriends, and I lost my virginity at 17 - so I didn't have it terrible - but everything that happened with me in the relationship arena just sort of happened - it was never because it was a girl that I wanted to go after and did it all on my own out of self-determination - no, they were relationships that came to be because other people influenced them into existence, whether it be the girl, friends, or it just sort of happening seemingly out of nowhere. There were plenty of girls that I had serious crushes on/attraction to in a much more personal way, but I never actually went after them because I was scared to go after the ones I REALLY wanted.
I now see I could have had experiences (not just sex - I'm interested in exploring relationships in all aspects on all levels) with many of those girls, had I just ACTED.
It now looms over me and I feel a lot of regret.
May sound silly but girls are a big deal to me - I've always been really shy and know that I'm awesome in my own eyes - ha - I love myself, but I've always felt myself to be so different than everyone else that I couldn't see them actually liking me for who I really am - not just who I appear to be on the surface. Pretty lame...cause I think it was all really just out of fear - not because I'm truly too different to be connected with. Another reason/justification created by my ego out of fear...
Long story short - I let myself live as a pawn in other people's stories rather than conducting my own - in a lot of other areas outside of the relationship arena, too. (King of like in Breaking Bad during the 'family intervention' when Walt says he feels like he's never made any of his own choices - they were all made for him - I really related to that in my own way)
Changing all that now...
But ultimately I think everything happens for a reason, and as long as you wake up to your faults and fuck-ups and are willing to adapt and aim for your (and all other living things') highest potential, you will eventually get where you want to be and experience what you want to exactly how you need to.

Akira, people pay 40k+ for an education you can literally get for free on OpenCourseWare. Once you're in, you're in. If you can do the job, you're fine. A degree looks nice when it's hanging on your wall, but 50k a year to restart people's computers sounds a fuck of a lot better than a lot of things.
I even know a kid who got a 40k/yr job out of high school in IT because he bullshit his way through an interview, and was able to perform. He didn't even lie about a college education, just claimed he was good with computers (AKA could Google well).

This applies to any age, but in those years where you're figuring out who you are (18-25), the most important thing is - DO WHAT FEELS RIGHT.
Don't lie to yourself. Your mind and your body always know what you need. Sometimes it means finishing school, sometimes it means quitting school and doing what you love. It depends on your situation. But always do what makes you happy (you know what it is), it'll pay off, trust me.

Everyone has things they wish they did differently in the past obviously...but that's over with. It's kind of funny reading people saying all this "wish I did this differently" stuff...
How many of you think in 5-10 years from now you'll all be saying...
"I wish I didnt waste so much time on the Shroomery/Internet forums posting a bunch of pointless shit and should have been spending my time doing other things that were actually productive or meaningful."
I've only posted a little over 1,000 posts in over 4 years on here and even that much makes me feel like I've wasted too much time on here. Cant imagine what some of you with over 10,000 posts must feel like.

less caring then you about their image? you feel like you've wasted your time posting a 1000 posts, then what i think you need to do is stop posting.
it's funny, you say at first that Quote:
Everyone has things they wish they did differently in the past obviously...but that's over with.
then you say that you even yourself, feel that you've wasted too much posting on the internet? is that not a contradiction? me thinks, you're just trying to insult people to make yourself feel better about your lack of inherent talent doing anything but working on really bad rap beats and drinking Four Loko all day and night... maybe you need a break?

seriously, you can't compare your situation to other people that are giving you advice. Those people's lives are not the same as yours. Do what you need to do right now, only you can know, no one else.

I dunno about that.
I've learned a shitload about myself in my brief time posting here.
I've also met some of the coolest, most real people I've ever met in my life...from interacting with posters on this site, but especially from interacting with Shroomerites IRL at gatherings. I regularly hang out with some of them.
I can honestly say I've met some of my best friends on the Shroomery. I wouldn't know a few of my best friends if I never joined.

i believe you, man. but i don't feel like i have to justify myself and my existence and my reasons to live, to random people whom interview applicants for subtly ridiculous jobs, that don't accomplish anything for me personally.
it's just the way it is. i really hate that i have to take an interview and then have someone call me back, as if they really do anything but pick and choose at random (or over subtly ridiculous quibbles), as if i need them.
but yeah, about the OpenCourseWare of course, i'm looking into it as i type this.

this guy consistently insults people using the shroomery, for simply being here, and yet, here he is. he's a pretty retarded troll.

i obviously gave the best advice...

i would take school seriously and stay away from drugs minus a few bowls and beers. i wouldnt smoke every day and i wouldnt drink every day. i would stay away from EVERYTHING else.
go to school. work on your education. you want to work hard during your 20s so you can enjoy the rest of your life. why burn out through your 20s then struggle the rest of your life.

Not trying to insult anyone, not surprising the internet loser with no life who lives on the Shroomery with over 30,000 posts took offense to that. I figured that would happen.
Lack of inherent talent??! LOL that is hilarious coming from you...the guy who tries to make "music" (key word there 'tries') that sounds like it was produced & recorded by a 12yr old in an un-soundproofed basement with a Fisher Price My First Music Machine. Not to mention sounds like it was mixed-down using a pair of dinky Ipod ear bud headphones.
I dont make rap beats and I drink Four Loko maybe 1 or 2 times a month, if that. So nice try there, Akooma.
Have fun with your 1 Soundcloud follower who is probably your mommy and your wannabe "songs" that are lucky to get 3 or 4 plays LOL. In which the person probably skims through it for 10 seconds then realizes its a bunch of noise made by an amateur. And I'm being nice by even referring to your garbage as "music" or "songs". You're well on your way to the top...you gonna blow the fuck up man!

LOL, you heard things that were made out of boredom with no attempt at revising anything and left in an HD to rot. and years ago too, when i started making electronic music out of boredom i don't really take making electronic music seriously, since it's all busy work anyways. it's not insulting me, to insult them.
i set up that soundcloud out of boredom too. but i'll probably be using it soon in the future. but regardless of that, you're still a wanker that does nothing post your shitty rap (and still won't post any of the "music" you've made; which would make us all laugh, but whatever) and post about how cool you are, when you are a simple bro with a complex about soundproofing walls. LOL
all while you drudge up work after work of banality (which possibly don't even exist), and nothing to show for it, other then some tools of the trade. LOL, and you insult musicians?

Ok you're right, Akooma, I should post some of my amazing work...here is one of my latest songs...this shit is straight butta right here...its gonna be a hit!! What do you guys think?
P.S. Never once did I try to say "I'm cool"...you're just trying to put words into my mouth. Or should I say put keystrokes onto my keyboard?

no, every post you make, is among the same banalities, except for when you so proudly exhibit the shitty rap you like, and then insult everyone for even saying anything that isn't praise for your definite lack of appreciation for any other rap that's good. you're just another opinionated jack off who think's "he's cool". that's why you have the Night Stalker quotes and shit, because you think you're a caped crusader of wickedness, when really you're just a bro.

and thanks for posting my wittle 1:00 minute track (not even a song) that i literally remember working on for an hour. really? so you're not gonna ACTUALLY post anything you've done? man, i really find it hard to believe that you're doing ANYTHING innovative or useful. i'm a betting man, i'm willing to bet, you produce and do mastering for other bands, probably only other really bad rap groups, and don't really own anything of your self-made bro-ery.
first thing the guys says, after he says "im not trying to insult anyone" is insult everyone with more posts then him, because they "have no life".
man, i love bros.
