Alright, so thats the plan, i still neeed to figure out little things, heres the diet and breakdown of day

6:45am- wake up
7:00am- Hit stair climber for 45 minutes at 70MHR
8:30am- meal 1- 7 egg whites and 1/2 cup oatmeal
11:00am- meal 2- Chicken breast 8-10oz , 1/2cup brown rice, 2 pieces wholewheat bread
2:30pm- meal 3- preworkout, 8oz lean cut steak with peanuts
3:15ish- workout
4:00- PWO (30 grams hydro540 protein, 30grams dex, 30 grams malt+5grams creatine+5 grams glutamine)
6:00- Steak + Natty Peanutbutter (possibly flax oil too?)
830- Peanuts and more steak or peanuts and 40grams whey+flax.
i dont measure very precise, so this is a general summary, im trying to get like 215 grams protein a day.

Anyway, thats the whole thing! took me all english class to organize all this.I got prom saturday, so it will be last time to drink. One advantage i have to this workout/diet plan is that i wont be drinking for 2 months. and i havnt done that in a long time so it should help a lot. any workout problems concerns/diet concerns please post, i start this monday and i really wana figure everything out before that. Thanks very much!

You'll want to check the approaches that are stuck atop the page and adopt the principles (nutritional approach) from the one you utilize. Focus on bulking or cutting, not both.

what do you suggest i do? i wana get more defined 6pack (cutting) and want to get bigger muscles (bulk). so i guess im in the middle of a decision, if i bulk do i loose 6pack if i eat healthy? and does the workout/diet look clean? any mistakes?

What are your stats? If you can't see your abs, you're probably best off by cutting all the way down to bedrock, and then pack on the mass. If your bf% is up there, and you try bulk now, you might get too fat.
