if you met yourself from two years ago

<p>1) I would think she was way too relaxed and a complete idiot for having the worst priorities and seeing the true goal of college and higher education institutions.</p>

<p>2) He would laugh at my love of hard rock bands like A7X or Papa roach and go back to listening to R&B/Hip-hop and slacking off.</p>

<p>1.) I would probably feel bad for her. In my opinion, she would need to take more risks and stop remaining in her shell.
2.) She would probably like me. She would wish she was me, but feel too inferior to normally talk to me. </p>

<p>I’ve changed so much in so many ways. Two years ago I had finished my first year at a new school after eleven years of staying in the same one in a different state. I was abnormally shy then, which I’m not naturally. Thank God for finally breaking out of my shell!</p>

<p>1) Work your azz off, potential to be a UCB student easily if he had bothered trying</p>

<p>2)Lazy azz, although he did get more humorous over the 2 years.</p>

<p>1) To my end-of-sophomore self: You’ll be proud of who you’ll turn into. Just keep being you: independent, honest and diligent. It’s amazing how many people will respect you for having those three things.</p>

<p>2) From my sophomore self to my senior self: I can’t believe I actually became the person I wanted to be. And I even have a personality now, too! Woah snap!</p>

<p>1) what would you think of her?
2) what would he think of you? (this is the more interesting question) </p>

<p>1) she’s confused and a little bit lost. Also, no idea what she was thinking when she got dressed like that. Doesn’t really have any real friends and tries too hard to make them.
2) I actually like to think about this because, well, it’s been a tough two years leading up to the end of senior year, but looking back, I got everything I ever wanted. When I was a little sophomore, there were all those groups of senior girls with the smiles and the nice hair who decorated wifebeaters for rallies and all that stuff and now I am one. I’m going to Dartmouth, which has been my top choice for years, and I dated this waterpolo boy who I’d loved for ages. There have been some definite ups and downs, but it all worked out in the end.</p>

<p>I would probably punch my past self in the face.</p>

<p>I love this question =).</p>

<p>1) I would tell my 8th grade self to stop being a dumb s-h-i-t and go into the IB school that she got accepted into! Really you will regret taking the easy way! Also I would tell her to stop talking back to everyone, thinking you were the smartest kid ever and to not go and screw yourself up in about 3 weeks. (Got into some things and started hating myself and just was a complete dip-****. I would think she was immature and annoying.</p>

<p>2) She would wonder how I could have possibly became more cynical and have lost almost all my old friends because I decided they were immature and annoying. She would wonder why I am a complete mess worrying about my grades and carrying less about social life. She would wonder how I ended up dating the IB kid who left in 8th grade, I would be mad at her for not following him to the better school. She would laugh at my 4.0 and say I should have a 3.5 in a harder school that is actually challenging.</p>

<p>We are opposite now. Back then I wanted to have a lot of friends and I wanted to be cool. I wanted a hot boyfriend and to not care about school. I was okay with never going to college and maybe living with my mom.
Now college is all these once blind eyes can see. I have a couple friends… who I cannot stand because they let their lifes become consumed in drama. And a couple really close friends who are way too old to be my friends. But they are mature and level-minded and rational. In two years I will hate my current self. Lmao…</p>

<ol>
<li><p>Before 9th grade: I’d be annoyed at how judgmental I was of people who weren’t in honors, didn’t sign up for IB/AP, or cared about getting into a good college. I’d also feel kind of sorry that she didn’t know how to socialize.</p></li>
<li><p>Now a junior: I’d be confused at how I turned into one of those girls that I used to make fun of with my friends but secretly wanted to be. Also, I’d be shocked that I’d do something like join rifle team and JROTC. I’d be jealous that I actually have friends now that don’t gripe about their 96 in AP Econ and instead are funny and smart without being snobbish.</p></li>
</ol>

<p>^wait, like what sort of girls</p>

<h1>28: Rifle team?</h1>

<p>1) The kid is pretty sheltered but beginning to emerge out of a shell. He really didnt have much of a life and often took life too seriously. Hes a smart kid but gets stressed too easily. I would tell him to train harder for wrestling and not slack off in practice cause you may regret the results. I would also tell him to go out during the off season and enjoy life. Dont be afraid to experiment cause youll never know how much fun youll have. Dont go to nationals, its a waste of time. Finally dont be afraid to put yourself out there even if it means that you could be laughed at. It is worth laughing at yourself if it means you meet amazing people who youll have so much fun with youll wish nights will never end. Also understand that the name of a college isnt important. Its what you do when you get there and the experience you have that matters.</p>

<p>2) Sure youre a pretty cool kid who has a ton of awesome friends but you gave up on your dream of dartmouth and settled on a free ride to a state school cause it was easier. You lucked out senior year by literally not doing a single homework in any of your classes and still getting As and Bs. But hey, you enjoy life a whole lot more than I do and I envy that. You do go out and spend time with youre friends and possibly get in alittle trouble but hey its your senior summer so why not. As far as wrestling goes, im really proud that you got captain but im not sure i would have changed weight classes like you did in the middle of the season. Sure you were trying to help the team when you moved to 60 but you lost any chance you had at winning an individual state title when you were at 45. Also i cant believe you drink. As a sophmore i would never do that. Drinking only leads to bad things.</p>

<p>Obviously, my sophmore and senior selves are completely different. I understand both sides but am happy with the person I have become because im much more chill. I dont ever let myself get stressed and have an amazing group of friends who are always there for me. It wasnt until the end of junior year that I began to come out of my shell and open up to others. Once I did that, I got to know many people and started to enjoy myself.</p>

<p>Bump!!</p>

<p>I would like her but i would think that she is annoying, cocky, smart, cute but needs a wardrobe upgrade!!</p>

<p>But now, she would think that im quite interesting and mature but kinda disappointed in me since i didnt get to do the things that i REALLY wanted to accomplish by now</p>

<p>Very good bump.</p>

<p>Need bump again.</p>

<ol>
<li><p>i would want to punch him in the balls and ask him why was he so nerdy and scared of people, and also WHY he likes Lil Wayne</p></li>
<li><p>he would think im a jerk, yet id be hilarious, be less scared of people and less nerdier, unfortunately he would notice my increased temper too</p></li>
</ol>

<ol>
<li><p>Ahh, junior year. A rather mediocre year, really. I was in the middle of a pretty nice relationship, but if I saw my two-year-younger self now, I’d pity him a little, because it goes downhill pretty quickly from here. I’d probably just chuckle with dramatic irony, because I was still a pretty adamant atheist who didn’t think he was ever going to convert. Then I’d pat him on the head and tell him just to live life and not worry so much about things. Oh I’d also probably try to get him high, since I hadn’t done drugs yet ^^</p></li>
<li><p>He’d be thrilled to learn I’m going to Reed, my dream school. Might be a little freaked out by the fire spinning, but very impressed in the end. I can see him worrying about me a little, but eh. He’d be surprised to learn about finding God, and embracing my more emotional side (it was something I’d struggle with over the next couple years).</p></li>
</ol>

<p>All in all, we’d be pretty satisfied with each other, since by this point I was beginning to mature a little more, and right now the world is opening up :)</p>

<p>1) nerdy, glasses with ponytail, extremely shy, horrible outfits
2) outgoing, contacts, loose hair, still doesn’t care what she wears but instead of wearing nerdy clothes wears random t shirts and jeans, still cares about school a lot</p>

<ol>
<li>I was a somewhat reserved but among my friends very sarcastic, cynical, and overall funny. I could be perceived as an ahole when I did talk. I had sorta stopped caring about school and stuff and had a 3.5 gpa all that year. (7th grade.) I probably wouldn’t like my 7th grade self.</li>
<li>Now I have seen the effects of bullying and whatnot and am a much nicer person. I still am pretty funny and somewhat d
chy but I don’t really bully people anymore. I have started to veer away from some of my current friends because they remind myself of 7th grade me. I have started caring about my grades again and currently have an unweighted 4.0. (9th grade) I think my 7th grade self would actually like the current me.</li>
</ol>

<ol>
<li>Lazy. Needs to do more math and physics and CS. You’re not in good enough shape, so you better start ramping it up. Don’t become me.</li>
<li>Lazy. Needs to do more math and physics and CS. You’re not going to get into MIT or Stanford or anything, huh? Better go do more math etc. so I don’t end up like this depressed, sleep-deprived guy.</li>
</ol>

<p><em>Likes GoodNoodle Post</em> Thumps up for Anti-Bullying and becoming more focused on you future :slight_smile: would love to see this thread again in another 2 years from same people.</p>

<li>I would think to myself, because I think it to this day, that I was very naive. I thought that I was invincible. I thought my family was invincible. I thought my friendships were never-ending. I thought that geometry would only get easier (HA JOKES) and I didn’t know that things would soon change my life forever. Yet at the same time I would feel bad that I didn’t know things would change. I would feel bad because I was not strong enough yet to handle what was going to happen in a few short months. Ugh, that would be difficult…having to relive all of the pain.</li>
<li>My freshman year me would think that I was a lot more mature. I wouldn’t understand everything that was going to change simply because I could never dream such things up. Yet I would be happy because I would find out that math would get a lot easier after I finished geometry…hahhahhaa…and that I would find people who I can be myself around all of the time.</li>
</ol>

<p>Ahh, I’m so happy that in a year I will be done with high school.</p>
