What would you tell your 18 year old self now?

What would you tell them to do with what you know now?
I'd tell him to join some military branch to try for helicopter hours, or at least to benifit from the discount former military get for the private training.

Go to college first (through ROTC) and get commissioned.

Also, not to give a damn what people think, and to break it off with that whore the day before joining the military.

When you're coming back from a soccer event in college and you want to speed in nebraska... don't.

Don't date the coworker when you're 22.

Start skydiving sooner, fuck computers.

- Don't do your best friend's girlfriend. Unless she's really hot. Or unless you're really horny.
- Don't skate on thin egg shells
- Don't eat yellow snow. Melt it first, then drink it.

"Forget everything you want to buy, apart from PC's and a car to get around. Forget everything you 'think' you want to do, it will be a waste of your life. Use your money and your time to go and learn to skydive while your young and fit. The experience will enrich your life more than a beautiful woman, give you more confidence than any life coach and provide you with more opportunities for friendship than a lifetime in the workplace......oh, and by the way, the lottery numbers for the first ever UK draw will be 2, 6, 25, 37, 40 & 48."

1. Don't eat ravioli and vodka mixed together.
2. Run like a madman when you meet a certain Catholic girl.
3. Don't put those sex toys in your English teacher's desk drawer.
4. Don't answer the door after you let the girls put make-up on you.
5. Don't sightsee on curvy mountain roads.
6. Don't try hang gliding.
7. Don't quit baseball because of that babe you're going to meet.
8. Don't get drunk and crawl down the side of the road in your underwear.
9. When you meet Corrie, don't assume that she is 18. Check her ID.
10. Buy gold when it gets deregulated.

My reality and yours are quite different.

Seems to be a theme in this thread.

When someone tells you that the girl you just met is messed up, RUN! later when someone questions your choice in women and you are still with the same girl, RUN! When the same girl tells you she isn't takeing her meds prescribed by a head doctor and is thinking about taking them again, RUN!

Next-
Wear a condom, kids are STD's- They are incurable, and with you for life. (kidding people) although don't have them on accident.

Start skydiving sooner.

Finish college sooner.

- Relationships are about compromise, but not to the point where you're compromising who you are.
- Read the first point again then tell Natalie to take a hike.
- When you get the urge to speed up the road in that car after a few drinks, don't, you'll regret it always.
- Start skydiving NOW

I told a friend years ago that I could've avoided all the major trouble in my life if I'd just had my ring finger and dick amputated early in life.

Finding the right partner is a hundred times more important than anything else. Be very careful.

Good Luck

Being a professional skydiver probably won't work out, but you should jump your ass off for a couple years anyways.

Oh, and Billy is a prick, but he is going to blow his ass up launching a buttle rocket - make sure to offer to hold his beer.

Yeah, not much I could tell my 18 year old self, but I'd tell my 17 year old self to always use birth control in the month of March.
