Five years isn't enough!

Um, five years leads me to... Third year of secondary school/ninth grade? There's not much I would change about these years. I was already accepting my sexuality, my social life was good, and there was not much that really went wrong. There are two things that specifically come into my mind, however.

First, I would never go on our school trip to Spain. Instead, I would've gone to Italy, as it would've saved me a major fight with my friend, arsehole teachers and an overall bad trip. I only have bitter memories from that trip - wanting to redo my Spain experience is exactly why I'm going next year.

Second, I would not follow the rest of the crowd and bully that girl. At that moment it truly felt like I was doing the right thing by not interacting with her just because others were telling me she didn't like me or whatever. I should've not gone along with their bullying and instead interacted more with the girl herself on non-hostile terms. When I realized what we were doing was essentially bullying, it was already too late for her...

After she was gone for a year and returned, I made sure to get on good terms with her - which I did, but I never got to apologize for the way I treated her all those years before. At first the others were friendly with her as well, but once it came out that no one essentially cared for her or still disliked her, I felt even worse about what we did. I decide to let whatever we had build die down once I left secondary and she still had one year left. To me it felt better that I, as someone who was part of the shit she went through, did not interact with her anymore. Ironically I've been bullied as well, and I have no desire to ever interact with that ass.

I hope she's in a much better place now. I won't ever have her forgiveness (she said so), but I am in no way desiring that. All of this is the only big regret of these last five years.

One additional thing would be to push furhter to interact with the partying crowd, because I really wish I would be invited to parties now orz. Then there's also that I wish I could do something against me having to follow economics in the last three years of secondary school, but there was not much I could really do because my parents were forcing this choice on me. To put in perspective how much I suffered because of economics: it gave me trichotillomania.

unmeet my ex

Spend more time with my friends.
I'd have to go back 10 years to want to change anything else

Amen :')

I mean

I'd just try to have fun with my knowledge of the future

like can you imagine how much money I'd make betting people that Donald Trump will be POTUS in 2017 when it's 2012? I'd have to wait 5 years for that money but hey

So rather than maybe somehow try and stop this from happening...you're willing to watch the world burn. Twice.

[just kidding I would totally do the same thing]

It's not like I could really do anything to change history

besides watching the world burn is just so much more fun

Tell myself of things to come to prevent them from happening? I guess.

I would be more social because I have practically screwed myself out of a social life any I'm very defensive now. I wouldn't be so touchy thinking that everyone hates me and just because I made a mistake, that It ain't the end of the world. To never get in a massive argument on an old forum that I was on back in 2013. To not stress over said forums drama involving me.

The forum doesn't exist anymore lol

start tennis earlier in my life / study a lot harder in high school. think about both of these almost every day.

I'd definitely choose to enroll at an arts college instead of a science one. I'd study Literature with a focus on Creative Writing, and not Computer Engineering.

I'd break up with my then-boyfriend, start studying harder, know how to party and have fun without getting shitface drunk, not bother with the people who later turned out to be draining and toxic presences in my life. I'd also make seeker move to Sweden asap.

I honestly don't think I'd make too many major changes in the last 5 years- anything I'd want to change would be well before that.

Other than moving out a bit earlier, I'd probably just pull a Biff Tannen and start betting on all the major sports events that I could think of, and start making some money off of that.

I would not join pokecommunity
