-3rd Person POV-

'Let's get this straight'
Tord thought to himself as he held a crumpled piece of paper in both of his hands. 'I thought I threw this stupid list away at the beginning of my 3rd year of Junior High! How the hell did it end up in the depths of my desk drawers?' Tord clenched the paper with his fingers as he read some of the childish drabbles on the beat up paper.

To-Do List:
1 If I ever start a bad habit, I need to find a way to get rid of it.

Tord thought that was unnecessary, even though smoking kills his internal organs, it was addictive and helped him burn off some stress. He knew it would be nearly impossible for him to stop entirely.

2 If I have any enemies, show them that they should be my friend instead even if I was the one to fuel the arguments.

Tord thought about it for a minute, then remembering about Tom. Oh god, he hated him and he knew Tom felt the same. There's no way in hell that he would be able to apologize to Tom and have him be forgiven, especially with how long they've been rivals.

3 Show your emotions more, I know I'm still hiding them in the future.

"Okay, now past me is just being a smartass." Tord mumbled, his eyebrows furrowing slightly. But he hated to admit that middle school Tord was completely right. Hell, he might've gotten so used to hiding emotions that he's gotten much worse at even showing them.

4 Read more ACTUAL books, not just hentai.

"Okay, sure. That's doable." He mumbled once again, sighing as he read the next one.

5 Come out of the closet.

'Shit...' Tord thought, biting his lip. He was still a closeted homosexual. Not once has he uttered a word about his sexuality to anyone, not even his trusted best friends, Edd and Matt. He thought they'd think of him as a weirdo because no one has come out yet either. He just assumed they were all straight so he just didn't say anything.

6 Do my best at college or my job.

Tord was a baker at a bakery called "SAMMY'S Bakery and Diner". He wasn't the best at some of the pastries he had baked in the past, most of the time they'd come out pretty bad or mediocre. He could definitely work harder and practice more.

7 Any bad flaws that are getting out of control, get help please.

8 Find a lover, the relationship should be around romance and a tad of lust and intercourse. But  once he shows 3 red flags then yeet him out of the relationship.

Tord breathed out a chuckle at his past self's choice of words.

9 Send wholesome memes to all of my friends, even Tom. If he questions it, just say you're welcome.

10 Fix my dep...

The next words were unreadable, seemily stained with many dried tear marks. Tord knew what the word was though. He took out his red marker that was left on his desk and popped open the cap. He finished the word that was interrupted by old tear stains.

10 Fix my depRESSION.

Tord snapped the cap back on the marker, throwing it to the side lazily. He tapped his fingertips on his desk and sighed," Should I give this a try...?"
Tord knew it would definitely make him a better person if he followed all of these perfectly. But at the same time, he thought it would just be a waste of time and he liked the way he was now. He thought he didn't even need to change. He rubbed his lips together as he made his decision, picking up the paper and folding it neatly into his pocket.

"Well, better find out what the hell I'll be willing to do to finish this list. Let's get started." Tord said as he got up from his chair, turning off his lamp and heading for his bedroom door that lead to the hallway.
