Elias

I wish I could go back and really talk to myself. There are a lot of things that I need to work n beck in high school. I would tell myself that football is not everything. That I should stop worrying about football and going out with friends, and focus a lot more on my school work. I would tell myself that school is no joking matter. You only get one chance at getting good grads in high school, and that I could not keep playing around and seeping class. I would also tell myself that girls are not a big deal to stop going after women and work on my school work. I tell myself that if I don?t stop that I will be all the work I did in high school all over my fresh mean year, and that just wasting my life away. One year is a big deal. Also that I would be benign all of my class mattes.

I would tell myself to go to the school and follow the path that I wanted rather than the path that my family members had aligned for me. I would choose to save my money and go to community college first and complete a two year degree and then move to my four year school. I would tell myself to live on campus and to thoroughly enjoy the campus life experience and new friends to be made and to explore the campus activities and find some I had interest in and to dive in 100{4a082faed443b016e84c6ea63012b481c58f64867aa2dc62fff66e22ad7dff6c}.

Take it seriously. This is your future and it does not need to be taken lightly. If you can grasp this one concept all others will fall into place. If you take your education seriously you will not procrastinate or skip classes, you will not half-way complete your assignments or ?forget? or ?not have time? to study for tests. You will not do these things because you take it seriously and it is your future. Start with finding your source of inspiration and drive and then put everything that you have into doing the best that you can. When you have that ?source?, that person or thing that you do not want to let down, whether it is your mom or dad, your child, yourself, or your future, you will relate your education to your source and you will have desire to succeed. My source is my son, it is for him that I strive to succeed. I will not procrastinate on assignments or fail to study for tests because it will reflect in my grades, and in turn, in my future, and it would be letting my son down. Take it seriously, it is as simple as that.

I would tell myself college is not as hard, or intimidating as everyone makes it out to be. There are many things I can get from college if I just stop being so stubborn and just learn. I would tell myself that one day I will need a higher GPA to get scholarships and freshman year of college is not the time to get lazy. All things I have learned in my twelve years of schooling is nothing c ompared to the things that can be learned in just the first year of college. It's so full of knowledge and know how. It's nourishing to the brain and can only be a positive thing if you keep your eyes and ears open and not be so stubborn.

If I could go back to my senior year of high school, I would advise myself to live on campus for at least the first year of college. My first year of college, I went to Cumberland University, and looking back, I really wish that I would have gone through the experience of living on campus. However, I am hoping to start Veterinary School in the Fall of 2010, and I may have the chance to live on campus while there. That is why I am needing all of the financial help and scholarships I can get.
