Advice

Two begin; I would like to say that I am not very pleased that this is the second blog in a row that involves not just a topic that involves my own life but a topic which entitles me to share specific instances in which I must share my life to the world.  This is not because I am embarrassed or ashamed I just feel a tad bit uncomfortable doing so.  On that note I guess ill begin.  If I could somehow meet up with the past me and give myself advice with the knowledge I know hold (which is not a whole lot) I would definitely have a few stories to tell as well as a few hints or pointers to take in so things that did not go so smoothly go a little easier or may never happen at all.  I guess the first thing I would give advice about is school, and by school I mainly mean the grades and school work aspect.  If I could tell my past me about how important studying and grades and applying myself is and will be things would be much different.  I would tell myself that spending the small portion of time now will mean a huge difference in the upcoming years and that my junior year is the most important year of my life and that focusing on my schoolwork for the few months I am in school is much more beneficial than going out with friends and slacking off, and that those few months will dictate my entire life.  That those months will determine how much money I will get as far as scholarships go, and that with larger scholarships doors open up to which college I can attend instead of dealing with the juggling act of educational and financial weight.  On the other hand I would tell myself that during my freshman year and up I should work hard in track because I will develop into a fantastic athlete and if I had trained since hard since freshman year instead of the end of my junior year and senior year I would be a nationally ranked individual runner and not just a state ranked runner.  As far as advice goes I feel like that sums it up for the most part.  Besides a few little tips on how certain things will end with certain people and maybe that I should not invest so much time in certain people due to knowing the outcome that is all the advice I could give the past me of two or three years.
