The advice I would give myself would be to study more and to fill out scholarships too. I would also tell myself to set up study groups with people from my classes so i could of gotten a better grade . Also to enjoy and really soak up everything my teachers told me like to don't stress as much about test to study and try your best and to enjoy my senior year more beacuse you begin your life in college and a new experience is always good. I would also tell myself to don't be scared going into college.

I am returning to college after dropping out four years ago. If I had known what I know now my life would be completely different. When I started college in 2004 things were great, but I wished I had realized how quickly money goes and how much it actually cost to be on my own. I would tell myself to apply for more scholarships and to have saved my money from the job I had while in high school. In high school I bought a new car instead of saving my money. So far I have done well for myself, but now I have a two year old daughter to provide for; and this is nearly impossible without a college degree. My father always said work smart not hard. This is true because I have worked hard over the past four years just to barely make it. If I had been smart and stayed in school I would have finished almost two years ago and been able to get a good job paying more than I could ever make without my degree. So now I am restarting and I am going to work hard to be smart.

I would tell myself to get in school as soon as I can and not to wait. I would tell me to look for something I am going to love and not just like because I am going to be doing this my whole life. Also i would tell me to search for schools and compare them and not just pick one and say thats good and go there.

Take advantage that you have the opportunity to be learning because there are many people in this world that do not get such a great oppotruntiy. PAY ATTENTION.

Set a good example for your future kids and plan for the future every day even though you do not know what it is that the future may hold. Try! Even if you don't succeed the effort that you put into high school will greatly impact how college will be for you. Give shcool your best and you will get the best out of it in the end.
