Friday advice in time
Imagine that you've somehow gained access to a time machine. Make a list of advice you'd impart to your past (or questions you'd ask your future) self.

Whoa boy....
1. Food is not supposed to be blue, normally.
2. You do not have to say yes to that cigarette Gerald will offer you in 3rd year high school
3. Do not simply walk out on an argument. You may never have a chance to apologize or make things right
4. BE NICE especially to that girl with long black hair, and that loud dude in a zoot suit!
5. At some point, you and Carlos will have a disagreement. Try not to let it get between the two of you, forever
6. It will be a good idea to take that Global Politics Elective. Even if Farrah is not in that class. You will need that lesson in the future.
7. Remember to cite your sources
8. When someone sends you a bomb threat, take it seriously!
9. It's really just a good idea sometimes to get witness protection, or just added security detail. Especially if you or your spouse is working on a dangerous case.
10. A zoot suit jacket is not exactly what one expects to wear to moot court
11. Spend time with your grandmother. She's got a lot to tell you
12. The day your brother tells you he's made you an uncle, don't rip into him. Keep calm, and remember you were just as stupid too.
13. When your girlfriend's younger sister starts getting panicky and jealous for attention, take her seriously. It could really be the first sign of a mental collapse.
14. Don't be hasty with making promises for your future. You will one day regret saying you'd never marry, or that you'd never go out with a certain pretty debater, or that you'd never go to law school. You'll end up doing all of that, jumpstarting a fulfilling career, and ending up with an amazing wife and two kids you'd give your life for in a heartbeat.
