You get sent back to age 15

I was 15 in 1952. I took courses to prepare for college but knew that I probably wouldn't get there. My teachers thought I should be a teacher. I did not want to end up as a secretary like my sister. I looked for odd options. Art was my main interest and I ended up in weather. I helped another student who ended up stealing a prize I should have received. Maybe I would let him sink if I did it over again but probably not. It is what it is.
 

I wouldn't date, I would work asap and save every cent to leave home. Teen years were ugly, and all the other kids were idoits. I got teased because I had no desire to hang out with the popular kids and was so mch smarter then they were. I skipped 2 grdes and graduated at 16. I immediately left home.
 
I'm probably overthinking this but if I woke up tomorrow at the age of 15 during the same time period I was actually 15 with all my current memories intact, the first thing I would do is to try to find a way to erase those memories. I would not be able to deal with being around my parents knowing how and when they would die. Same with friends who have passed during my lifetime.


If I woke up tomorrow morning and discover that I am 15 again and it was present time, I think the first thing I would do is call my older sister and ask her for a ride to a place I have to be at by 9 am. Legally, I would not be able to drive myself there. I'm sure my sister and I would have an interesting conversation on the way to where I have to be.
 
You get sent back to age 15 along with all your current memories. What’s the first thing you do differently?

Make better choices? At 15 theres not much else you can do to change your fate.
I already got good grades and I went to college on a full scholarship.
You could change you I suppose but you would still be surrounded by the same azzhats.

Knowing what I know now I probably would be a lot more confident. And I would have avoided certain people.
Most big changes would be after graduation.
