Hmmm...here's a few: :whateveryousayfreak:



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.

The only thing a hishschool diploma does is prove you can get into college.

Who the fuck really checks to see if you graduated high school?

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...:shrug:

thanks for the vote of confidence. :yesnod:

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.

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.

Best wishes to you OP! :peace::heart:

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.
