I would tell myself to make sure i have atleast 3 opitions of what i want to do in life. The major that you choose make sure you are comfortable with it. Dont let anyone or anything stand in your way of your dreams. And to also just remeber to stay true to yourself and you will be great in life.

The easy days are just about over and soon your going to be stepping into a new chapter in your life. Going to college is a big decision to make, but it's a decision you've made. This means you are headed down the right path to make the transition from being a young girl with little to no responsibilities into a young woman who will soon be responsible for substaining life without her parents there to hold her hand. Without a doubt your nerves will get the best of you in the begining because this is something completeltly new and your not used to being on your own. Once you become more comfertable and realize your parents have equiped you with all the neccesitites to survive on your own you will be fine. Just always remember to 1.)be aware of your surroundings, never place yourself in a situation you can't get out of. 2.)Never get caught up in the typical college student life where your always partying and not focusing on why your there in the first place.... to learn!!! 3.) Life does not have a easy button, do not fold under pressure! Just Breathe!

If I could go back in time to my high school senior days, I would tell myself to not worry so much about the work I will receive and to trust my study skills. As I went into college, I was terrified I would not be able to handle the work, but with my 3.6 in college I obviously could handle it. Another piece of advice I would give myself is to save up each summer for college textbooks because they can be very expensive. Along with the textbooks, I would tell myself to buy the books online because they are much cheaper than buying them in the bookstore. The most important advice I would give myself as I transfer into college is to be sure I am on top of my game when paying tuition. It is important to consistently check my email and stay on top of financial aid.

The advice i would give to myself when i was in high school would be follow the same motto I have been going with all my life. That I have to be successful for my little sister because I am the first one to attend college out of my six older family member.

If i could go back and talk to myself as a high school senior and talk to myself as a college student I would tell myself about how important it was to save money and how crucial it was to take advantage of every opprutunity that school had to offer me whether it was sports, dance, chrous, sga etc it wwouldve really helped set me up for how college life is now.

Although popularity and friends are a big concern right now, and they are important, focusing on your future is even more. I know that some of the classes you are taking are boring and don't seem important, pay attention and get the highest grades you can. High grades are like money in the bank, they pay off in the long run. When you apply for colleges, jobs, and career opportunites, an active extra-carricular activity life and high grade point average will open more doors for you thanyou can imagine. If you take a look around you and notice those that are supposedly cool, also look at what they are doing for their future. Are they going to be working at some fst food place, or are they going to running it? How are you planning to buy a house and support a family? Appreciate that school is free now. Appreciate that housing, food and clothing are free now. Very soon, you will be havingto pay for all of this yourself. You don't have the skills and need to aquire them now. Enjoy life as you go,but invest in your future as you go.

Having someone to talk to as a high school senior would've helped out tremendously. One of the biggest things that I would've stressed to my past self was the financial part. I had NO IDEA how much I would actually have to spend or loan to attend college. I thought I wouldn't have to worry about it and that financial aid would have covered everything. I was completely wrong. Finishing my second year of college, I was around $15000 in debt. Now that I transferred, I can add another $20000 or so to the amount. I could have applied for so many scholarships to help reduce the amount but I just did not sweat it. Secondly, I would have planned out my college choice a bit better. I chose to complete my general studies at Rhode Island College, which was a great experience. I met some wonderful people and learned so much, but I could have attended a community college, get the same education, and pay much less. Those are some of the things I would have loved to know and maybe one day I will be able to help my children in their pursuit of college.

Assuming that I could go back in time and talk to myself as a high school senior, the one thing I would tell myself is please, please, please manage your time wisely Antoineka; do not waste your time because time wasted is a mind wasted and a mind wasted is money wasted. There are too many scholarships out here that you could earn your first year so focus on your financial need and the fun will come later on down the line when you have absolutely nothing to pay off in loans. Anything that can be counted in your life as a stressor that has nothing to do with classroom time and finishing assignments ignore it. The parties and the fun will still be there after the work is done, so think smarter and work productively.

Going back in time would be a highly unlikely event. Some would even call that impossible. If I could go back in time and talk to my past 'self', it would only be to explain how I went back in time in the first place. I would help myself rewrite the laws of physics and turn the scientific world on its head. This, of course, would be extremely foolhardy in any given case. Time-reversed matter looks quite similar to antimatter. When one kilogram of antimatter collides with one kilogram of matter, the resulting explosion would be nearly equivalent to 43 million tons of TNT. Weighing approximately 61.23 kg (and assuming I go completely naked with no clothes or carry-ons) the explosion would be around 2.63 BILLION tons of TNT, destroying everything around where I started/ended the journey. In short, the answer to that question is, "I would not go back in time in the first place. I prefer to save lives, not end them."

diamond prepare yourself for a quick and fast transition. instead of taking only four your classes this year , you should take more. the extra classes will benefit you in college. the more time you read, the better off you will be. o yeah, visit the guidance office more often. they are there to help make the transition from high school to college more easier. and if you didnt know they could also make it so that your college application fees will be waivered. they even have a counselor there to help you fill out, and find scholarships. dont wait til you get to college and end up being offered no money, because you didint apply. you should really start today. in your free time consider looking up majors that your intrerested in, how in demand they are, and there starting salary, so you dont miss out on 3 weeks of classes, because you cant make up your mind. by the way not asking for help, wont really do anything but hurt you in the long run. your going into your first year of college so noonne expects you to know everything. lastly, practice some time managment skils starting tomorrow. seeya.
