If you met yourself as a teenager.

ROTFLOL i would sit in Latin 2 class and make faces at the teacher.
as the only non-Catholic kid in there i had a rough time, but it would be nice to let her know that i survived in spite of her.
and to let her know that I had the last laugh, because she didn't succeed in running me out of the class.

Tell myself three things.

1. Put more effort into school regardless of how much I hate it.
2. Don't join the military.
3. Be patient, the right one will come along soon enough.

Hard question. I would tell myself this...
1. Snap out of it. That guy isn't worth missing your finals for.
2. Parents aren't perfect. They need you more than ever. Hug them and appreciate them.
3. Life will always be tough, but also rewarding.

LOL...I have A LOT!

1. That doctor who thinks you have Asperger's syndrome? He was right all along! You really need to research what all that entails and adjust your outlook accordingly. Your life or what you think is your life and who are is one big lie. You're different and people will never see you as normal. Accept it and learn how to cope with that or you will end up making a huge mess of your life trying to fit in or do what everyone else thinks you should be doing.

2. Your Mom is Bi-Polar and doesn't know it. She will never be diagnosed or accept it, so don't try to reason with her. Just help her around the house more and be supportive of the insanity she has to go through with your Dad and brothers. Try and get her to quit that job at the hospital, because that's what will kill her.

3. Don't go to art school. It will be a huge waste of time and money. Just go right into the Air Force out of high school. You'll be glad you did and you'll retire 3 years earlier.

4. Save your money. Don't buy stupid things.

5. Keep your mouth shut. See #1 and what that does to you. That's why people have been rolling their eyes at you or saying things to you that you don't understand or get.

6. Don't date and don't get married. That kind of life is not for people with Aspergers...unless you can find someone who will genuinely support you and accept that. Good luck with that one.

7. Finish piano lessons. You'll be glad you did. Oh, and you can't sing as well as you think you can. Sorry, but it's true.

1. Life isnt as bad as all that
2. Read your bible instead of all those other books! Try KJV
3. Dont feel pressured to go to university, stick with something that YOU want to do.
4. Think its time to give up your childhood toys..lol

I'd tell her not to hide her true colors because she is beautiful no matter how they hurt her or what they call her and that she is loved.

1. 1988- Dont buy that new Ford car you will buy but instead buy $20k shares in Apple when they hit $6 a share and then retire at 25 years old.
2. Mullets and flannelette shirts are not REALLY trendy.
3. surfing rules continue..
4. Your going to meet a girl.
5. School is terrible dont worry about it, you'll have shares in Apple.
6. There a terrible thing coming that will devastate your life forever but if you see a doc now it can be fixed.
7. Get rid of that Mullet.

Stab myself!
NO, not really. I would spread some wise words about the world and basically enjoy being a teenager, it goes downhill from there.
I'm sure many member here will agree with me when I say, adulthood is one large stress consuming period.

If you met yourself as a teenager.

i was a lost and forlorn li'l soul....

i'd give myself a hug....

and some much-needed healing therapy.

This encapsulates the state of my li'l lost and wounded soul:

"Love makes your soul crawl out from its hiding place." ~Zora Neale Hurston

You know Sophie scholl brinny? I cried watching it! Her head chop off she was so brave, we all would run! And she was not a christian either! Just like Bonhoffer who got hanged too! She did not flinch at all! She died wanting others to rise and revolt against hitler but no one did. You don't join hitler and you oppose him he chops your head off.

Here is the boring short scientific answer however we could still wonder what if!

It isn't possible to do that. In physics, the Entropy of a system is a measure of the number of possible arrangements of particles (or even the more general "things") within the system. Entropy is generally thought of as a measure of disorder and, just like in a teenager's bedroom, that disorder can only be overcome by doing work (expending energy) on the system.

Even so, statistically entropy only ever increases. According to the second law of thermodynamics all natural processes cause disorder to increase as they evolve towards thermodynamic equilibrium. This implies that time is asymmetrical with respect to the amount of order in an isolated system. This asymmetry lets us tell the past from the future. Basically, the Arrow of time only ever points in the direction of the future no matter what.

There are also a variety of logical arguments that rule out your ever meeting yourself, or any of your ancestors in the past. But that's overkill.

But here if you can then read below:
Before meeting your past self, make sure you study the documentation you have from your youth on that particular meeting, and do everything exactly like it happened the first time you did it (as a younger traveller).

Since you know what has already happened in that meeting, you can guide the conversation and when it gets out of track you can say something like “You are not asking the right questions…” or “Are you sure this is what you want to know?…”

Since you are the experienced traveller, you know that in order for your younger self to arrange this meeting, he probably needs something from you and might be in distress. So… make your younger self feel comfortable about it… Cook yourself something to eat (you know what you like ). Talk about your favourite places, pictures, songs, movies… you’re are the only one that have the exact same tastes as.. you (you are bound to find a common ground to stand on).

Try not to laugh at your younger self… Funny hairstyle, the ugly old fashion, the cowboy boots, weird makeup that used to cool back in those dayy. And if you don’t like what you see, at least you KNOW you grew out of it…

Most important thing you need to keep in mind: DON’T LECTURE your younger self. It’s true you’re older and wiser but, if you haven’t made the mistakes you had, you wouldn’t be the you you are now (or then). Some piece of advice is encouraged, and some information is definitely off limits and shouldn’t be available for your own sake…

Concluding, I would like to remind you that you need to be very careful, especially when you meet your past self to keep the meeting strictly as you remember it to be. If things happen in a different way than you remember, somebody (meaning you – both past and future) will definitely be in trouble. So avoid changing stuff…

Try to avoid meeting yourself during the time you didn’t time travel. This can cause serious SERIOUS SERIOUOUOUOUS problems. For the both of you… and the person you least want to hurt, both mentally and physically is you…

As a general note, though, I have to say that meeting yourself, both past and future, is a very cool experience, and you should definitely try it. I know I had fun with it every time and on the both sides I was. So, don’t delay it… go meet yourself. Isn’t that what all the teachers, parents, feel-good books always told you?… So, take their advice literally and… GO MEET YOURSELF!!!

Before we head of time travelling how about the rules? Are we just going to go with out thinking about the rules?

Tell myself:
DO NOT DATE Will or Jason at any costs.
Be a better friend to Caren and Chris.
Know that you are beautiful.
STUDY STUDY STUDY.
And you are going to be an amazing teacher when you grow up.

I would advise myself to:

1. Stop smoking because it would lead to asthma.

2. Stop belonging to juvenile gangs because it wasted time and placed me in danger of death or prison.

3. Stop associating with the kid I considered my best friend because he was really my worst enemy.

4. Marry the girl named Donna because she truly loved me.

5. To not alienate Woodrow because he was the only real friend I had.

I would tell younger me to:
Get an X-box and then an X-box 360 not the Wii.
Go for a better laptop
Don't date that guy you could have done better and found one who had a job though David was a good enough choice.

OK sit down young man, I want to give you some good advice And believe me "good advice" is hard to come by so appreciate this little chat.
Don't put anyone on a pedestal. Now for you at the moment, its gals and older brothers. One day they gonna disappoint you. You are gonna find out they aint perfect and neither are you. The only one you put on a pedestal is God. And get to know him asap. Stay in touch. Don't let a day go by without paying him attention. Respectful attention. He is gonna be your absolute standby best friend ever. You can count on him. But the better you know him, the closer you are that is, the more protected you are gonna feel. Consult him all the time, because you are sure gonna need him in times of strife and life just don't make sense. Don't toss him away in the good times. That's a big mistake a lot of people make. Now he is gonna ask you to do some stuff for him that might seem hard, real hard. Like not hate your enemies, the people that treat you rough. H e wants to use you to pass on a message to the world to others. That life is worth living, that there is love in the world. And you are gonna pass that feeling of self-acceptance and peace onto others. You mightn't feel like it at first, but once you get in the habit, it gets easier.
And one other thing. You are good enough. You are a sinner like the rest of us but you have some talent. Just use what little you have and let God chip in.You'll find that together, you can achieve a lot more than you think! Good luck!

I'd slap her in the face! And hug her.

I am a teenager right now. If I could go back to when I was 13 I would give up on this obsession I had then w the piano then & focused on the instruments I liked better. I just kept w it bc I always played it.

I would have concentrated more in school and accepted Christ earlier than I did and listened to what my mother told me. She was right.
