If I had not been in such a hurry to watch Evangelion back in 2007, my life would probably have turned out completely differently. Oh, anyway, I would also ask my past self to be much more serious and passionate about all of my hobbies, which I was clearly much better at then than I am now.
@RobertBobert like what hobbies if you don't mind me asking ? |

Never go to college, and take student loans. Just immediately join the workforce after highschool.
@rohan121 what major did you chose ? and if you were to do that what career would you have chosen right after highschool |

@deadcowwalking Playing guitar and bass guitar, work out, writing stories, drawing, participation in a number of anime/J-Music fandom projects and wushu at different periods of my life were a natural result of my interests in media. Unfortunately, for one reason or another, most of them were either abandoned or frozen by now. |

@deadcowwalking I was a fool planning to go to med school with a biology major. Little was I aware of the actual price of med school (I never went fortunately), and I loath biology. I work retail now for 14/hour. On my 4th year of paying back my loans. |

@RobertBobert thats the thing though how do you know if you haven't tried ? it's not that your lazy but your scared for the possibility of something that might or might not happen :D it's our egos that get in the way and think we are so low of ourselves when we should be thinking so mighty and beyond ! i believe you can as long as you believe in yourself as well . but i truly do hope you can find yourself revisiting or picking up more hobbies along the way |

@deadcowwalking Well, if at 17 years old refusing to go to music school because of shyness seemed like a normal choice, then at 25 it feels like regretting something missed on your deathbed. I mean, music isn't something that you NEED to have a degree in, but it could solve a lot of problems that seem very intrusive when you just learn music with a teacher. |

@RobertBobert i suppose but maybe at 25 you could be making it up for yourself at 17 .. i don't know you but you seem hard on yourself you should be happy with all the goals you have achieved :D how are you supposed to be happy when your still beating yourself up and i'm no teacher matter as a fact i'm a high school student lol but to me it seems you just have to let it go its okay you regret things but lets focus on the new chapter in hand ! what are things you want to do as a new hobbie or something that makes you happy to pursue it for yourself :) |

@deadcowwalking You may not be a teacher, but you would make a great motivational speaker :D. Yes you are right. I simply belong to the type of person who likes to feel sorry for himself, thereby instinctively avoiding responsibility or the risk of failure. For example, when a couple of years ago my hair quality deteriorated and my long hair began to look like a mop, I spent a couple of months agnsty thinking about gonk short hair (This hairstyle doesn't suit me very well due to my face shape) instead of cutting my hair short and starting to grow my hair again, but now with more care. |

Funnily enough I would tell my past self the opposite of what you said. To love the ones around me more and that they deserved so much more. Would have also probably gave advice to myself on not being so politically radicalized and ways of dealing with my gender dysphoria better, although going through those struggles make me who I am today so maybe better to just leave those be. |

@WaffleMaster89 well when i was younger i would follow people and let them walk over me and as i got older i would be a fake person and just do what people wanted if that makes sense i never stopped and cherished myself or once gave myself a shoulder to cry on until lately but thats very interesting way of thinking i suppose there are many other ways that could have happened with you learning and becoming stronger over time . |

I think that he was unto something. Thanks! (The profile set had been made by a friend who had sadly deleted her account) One of the few anime that I have rewatched twice; everything is lovely about it, and it is strangely motivating! "Don't give up before you bet your youth on it!" It is good to hear this kind of advice (from Harada-sensei if you remember) in more realistic anime. Now "Chihayafuru Main Theme" must be playing in your head. I have heard that a manga sequel was in preparing, but I am rather waiting for S4. Is Paradise Kiss as good as Nana by the way? Not sure that I want to get hurt again though... |

Either don't have a backup plan and put all your energy on what you actually want to do or have a backup plan that actually has a more solid path (like learning a trade that people actually hire you for like plumbing, carpentry, or something). Get more seriously into audio rather than trying to learn languages to be a translator. Should have gone to college for something more useful. Form better connections with some of the people in your life now. "I'll catch up later!" won't be a thing, because a lot of them will be dead. |

Your assertion does not imply that great actors who do not look very good cannot get a role. You always have the possibility to move to another country to pursue your dream. In the USA, most male actors today are hideous, though no one can beat the ugliness of French actors (both male and female). Also, are we speaking about cinema or theatre? If you are specialised in one of the two, you might benefit putting more efforts in the other. |

@Meusnier ah yes, the "let them eat cake" And "if you're homeless just buy a house" Reply. Never expect more from weebs tbh. Mf cannot even comprehend that being a child actor almost always means my family is fucking broke that even their 8 yo kids must find a way to find money. |

Honestly nothing. It'd sort of defeat the purpose, and to begin with, I've never committed anything so heinous to really regret anything anyway. And I don't regret my career decisions or anything of that sort either. However, I do dislike the amount of time I used to waste on this site though. Posting over 2k posts is just unacceptable. Pretty sure I also got like 500 posts deleted, so this number is already underestimating my stupidity. |
