I don't mean generic advice to an 18 year old. I mean advice specific to your experience. And no superbowl winner is the Cowboys or Buy Microsoft stock answers please!

Stay away from her! Don't even go near her! She is bad news and alot of trouble. Yea she's hot and you want her but that fades fast. Don't do it! She is crazy and bipolar. Its not worth it believe me for one time in your life. Dont go to the restaurant she works in, don't sit in her section, and if you do don't speak to her. Tell her you're gay, anything to cut the tie before it is created. SLAP!, you feel that! Wake up. You will be dealing with her psychotic ways for the rest of your life!
Thats about it. If I would listen to myself just that once it would have started a domino effect that would have made me alot happier, successful, and sane for the years to come.

I would have told my 18 yo self to join the Army but be a medic. I was about to enlist into the infantry but now that I realize I like the medical profession, I wish I had an immediate start into the field. I'm not in it now and am trying to but it's hard after spending all my adult life in a career field I dread. Being a divorced single dad of two doesn't make it easier. But all that happened later, not at 18.

How about Apple stock? ;-) I was 18 in 1978...
I would tell my 18-year old self to not give up on what you love to do so easily. I was a darn good baseball player, scouted for the pros, but pressures of school, work, and family pushed me into a different career path. It's my one real regret that I gave up a chance to play pro ball, and I think I could have made it. Other than that -- no real regrets :)

i'd tell my 18 year old self to go ahead and get pregnant and get married (because after 15 years of being together and 11 years of marriage, we're still like newlyweds and i married a wonderful man and both my daughters didn't take after their mom, thank heavens) but continue your studies and read ahead so you'll be ready for your classes. take up education in college and do your assignments, don't cut class so you'll learn a lot and graduate. i don't regret anything because my life turned out great but graduating in my 20's would've been good. i'm 33 and i'm still a year and a half away from graduation. when i become a senior, my daughter will be a freshman in the same school.

Great question! This is going to be fun!
I would tell myself...."Don't obsess over boys....they come and go...what's important is to focus on yourself and your education. Learn different things...they make you an interesting person. Keep an open mind about others thoughts.....learn from all people. Don't be judgemental....you haven't been in their shoes. Just watch and learn from other's experiences. Go to college for Journalism. You'll be great at it because you love to write, and you love photography."

Focus on career versus just having fun in life. Dont get married young..and dont have kids young. Travel more before settling down. Dont take crap from anyman..ever. Live life to the fullest everyday...exercise more and enjoy it. Oh so much more!! Good question.

I would say never go anywhere just for a man. I would say really TRY TO LEARN from past mistakes. I would say.. it's hard to be yourself so why would you want to be anyone else? And lastly, I would be more careful with men in general.
