So I just watched the movie hot tub time machine. Obviously not one of my proudest accomplishments but a few minutes after watching this movie I proceeded to take a shit and sit on the toilet for a solid 15 minutes. During this period of time I was just thinking about how funny the movie was and all the shitty jokes and shit. But then something hit me. I remembered how the movie ended with Rob Corddry's character Lou (the violater) staying back and fucking changing his life for the better and becoming a rich man in the future. I don't know why but this scene hit me like a rock. I'm 17 and life has been pretty shitty lately I've been acting like a looser and getting no where. My biggest problem is procrastination, my life has just turned in to me putting shit off and having a bad attitude about stuff when it doesn't happen. This then puts me in a depressive state (not suicidal just sulky). But after this movie I thought to myself what would my future self do if he came back to the past to make my future life even better or make my present life better than it already is. Obviously my future self would not slack off in doing shit, spend more time learning things, how to save money, how to invest, learning programming, not acting like a dick, dressing nicer, spend more time with friends and less time sitting at home watching tv or masturbating, getting better at basketball and just overall try to be the person that I hope to be RIGHT NOW. I have a sudden urge to learn how to code (as it will help in the future), acting more positive, go to the gym regularly, and having a bit more fun with life and prep for my future years which I want to be legendary. It may sound like I am currently high af, but this movie has, for the time being, changed my view on life. I need to live in the now to have the future I desire. If i continue to act the way I am acting right now and wait and be like oh college will be better. I will keep on putting shit off and I'll never grow as a person. This movie may of been shitty in terms of sheer cinematography, dialogue, and overall premise, but the deeper message just has so much of an impact. It's the fact that maybe we don't need to time travel to change the future, but rather just live in the moment and accomplish things in the present that you wish to have in the future. I guess the movie wasn't that crummy after all.
