This is a fun little writing exercise. Here's mine–I want to see yours!
It’s 2012 and I’m 4 years wiser than you are so you better listen to me and you better listen good.Enjoy every single second you have with Matt, Dane, Kellan, Jordyn, and Chase. I know it’s hard to believe right now but one day you’re not going to have them around so much any more. Quit taking the friendship you have with these guys for granted and start cherishing what they mean to you now. You’ll never have that again, ever.And I know that you’re probably still in the puppy love stage with Sarah. Cherish that, and don’t treat her like shit. Don’t act like a sorry asshole when you know that she’s doing everything she can to cheer you up. I know it’s hard to control your emotions right now and your hormones are in turmoil, but it’s no excuse to act like a dick to someone who cares about you.Make an effort to talk to your dad more. Although you don’t realize it yet, you and him are similar in more ways than you can imagine. He isn’t home all the time, so make sure that when he is, you make time to have talks with him. Ask him about what things were like when he was your age. Talk to him about baseball. Ask him about papa.Quit stressing your mother out with school. Just do your homework, seriously. I know you can. And you better enjoy the shit out of her constant home cooked meals, because those won’t be around forever. Take some time to thank her for all the hard work she does around the house.I know, the Yankees didn’t make the playoffs this year. Don’t lose faith in Girardi so soon, though. 2009 is going to be a good year. The Eagles aren’t going to get better, at least not yet. You’re allowed to hate the Patriots for a few more years but it will soon be time to let that go as well.Get to know your little sisters more. Talk to them about anything. One day you’re going to leave the house and really regret not getting to know them better. They’re going through almost the same things you are right now, and trust me, you’ll be able to relate to them better than almost anyone, even if they are girls.I know things are crazy right now. But you’re gonna make it. You’re gonna make it.

CALM THE FUCK DOWNWith sincere regret,Your future self.Dear 15 year old me, attached below are the lottery numbers for the next 5 years. Use them wisely. Hmm, while I'm at it, why don't I give you these games that won't come out in a couple a years as well.
Have fun being set for life!^ This is probably the smartest one that I've read so far.
Aw, shoot. Turns out the first post is was essentially my idea. Haha, that's what I get for posting before reading.
Hello self (version no. unknown - alpha backup),
Stop procrastinating already, it's starting to get on my nerves. Your mind is split into 3 parts: colseed, Rakaasac, and I haven't figured out the third one yet. But maybe you'll get a head start on it this way. Oh and talk to that girl you only just learned the last name of. She's pretty cool, doesn't afraid of anything, thinks almost like you do. And you'll be at the same college by the way. Betcha didn't see that comin' huh. Sucka. Enjoy the advice. Sleep well knowing you're going to kill this future self by following it. You monster. - Future self, version 5.3bDear Past Me:
Watch the new My Little Pony show that's gonna come out in a year or so. Like, as soon as it comes out, don't wait a few months like I did. Also, don't bring it up with anyone except those 3. You know who I mean. Everyone else will mock you, even your immediate family.Oh, and make sure you choose to write the exam for law next year, don't do the project. The exam is easy as shit. Also, it's Quebec, not Ontario.15 year old self-
Write a letter to your 21 year old self.Put it in your backpack.Pen pals for life.
