What would you be as your 12-year-old self?

If I had a chance to live those years again, I'd try becoming more social, and work harder to get better grades.

as for school:

change my courseload... heavy in sciences, making sure to take math thru to AP calc II, AP physics as well as AP bio, AP chem & APcompsci (& make ABSOLUTELY SURE to stay awake in chem), doing everything possible to graduate early... find the engineering books I have now, then -- to make sure I remember exactly WHY I'm staying awake in chem.

come to think of it... start applying all this stuff early, get pilots liscense & test out of PC as a junior & start making up for all the time I lost the first time around. THEN go for the girl thats haunted me the last 10 years....

Agony. Why the hell did you have to pick twelve?

I'm a hell of a lot stronger and tougher emotionally than I was at 12 the first time, so I might make it through those years a bit easier than the first time. Then again, maybe it'd be worse because I'd know what was going to happen...

I'd be tempted to put myself out of the misery of having to go through all that shit again, though. But who knows how many more of them would have actually died had I not been there? Maybe I didn't make a difference, but I think I did. Either way, I'd never know for sure, so you know I'd just suck it up and deal...again....

Bad stage of life to pick. Very, very bad.

Try and rid myself of the sources of my pain, so that the torments will not haunt me through the years I've had so far...

But I would definately try and stay in shape a bit earlier, so that it wouldn't be quite as difficult now.
