Ok...nobody likes to regret something...but somethings in everybody’s lives are regrettable...
So tell me...if you could back in time and tell to your youger ’you’ to don’t do something (or maybe do, instead of hesitate)...what would it (or them) be?
In my case...in the teen ages...
1. Chose a different technical school
2. Change my diet
3. Look for a job as the last year of technical school were ending (October-December)
For my 19’s...
1. DON’t fall in love for a certain girl
2. Save money and using it to get in an gym academy
3. DON’t fall in love for another certain girl and DON’t write her a poem and ’romantically’ throw it inside her house, with a ’Anonimous’ signature.
For my 20’s
1. Watch the street a bit more, specially after midnight, specially in the corners with the ’Stop’ sign
2. Save money by getting in a gym academy and buy proper (and less expensive) professional, food suplements, instead of self-made choices...

In my teens at school.... 1991/92/93:-
Should have choose GCSE subjects more carefully instead I opted for copying what my friends did.... although I passed them I wish I had took a different route....
Should have stayed on to do A-Levels at 6th form rather than going onto college.
At 19:-
Should have put myself first and gone onto university.....
At 24:-
I was renting my parents old house for about 9 months when I lost my job in 2001 and like a fool I gave up this house and made my Dad put it back on the market to sell.... I had spent at lot of money on making it into my home and in a moment of madness moved into rented accommodation somewhere else.... The house was sold and I lost quite a bit of money with what I had put into it in the time I had lived there. Don’t get me wrong I love my current home but this other house is just around the corner and I so much regret giving it up as I found another job a few weeks later but in that time the house was sold.... everytime I walk past the house I have regrets as I grew up there and it has so many memorys....

At school....should’ve studied harder for my GCSE exams ;)
Early 20’s ..... should’ve learnt more about computers!
Now...... Shouldn’t have tried to make that tackle that got me injured at hockey....and then maybe I could’ve played the last 3 games of the season and helped us not get relegated :(

No Damineh, I am not (thanks God) over weight, I wasn’t and don’t want to never be. Very opposite, I was always under my weight. I never was a very muscular teen, I was always taller than my age could predict...that’s why I’m 1,95m today! My weight variates from 95-97kg today...and yeah, I’d like to lose some fat, but not ’coz I’m fat, I wanted it to look more shaped...hehehehe...
And too, I’d like to advice myself in the past about diet, due to acne...I got a terrible problem with when I was 19, but it was actually a thing I was carrying since 15, when I ate a lot of crap...

I couldn’t have change anything in my life, because everything that has happened in my life has made me the person i am now, i have learned from my mistakes and be happy for my success, if i could live it again i would do it the same way, maybe the only thing i could change is spending more time with my father, because i miss him every day since he died 10 years ago

Beautiful sunnshy beautiful. I admire you.
Coyboy funny and nutsy you are. So many regrets eh?? Maybe those mistakes have made you the person you are now. I hope you have learned your lessons and will never make those mistakes again.
tinytim said on May 22, 2003 12:42:
Yeah, what happens make us what we are now...but you can live happily and you can become someone worth, self-confident and active without scars...you don’t have to miss your thumbs ’coz someone cutted’em off. I mean, you don’t have to see the value of something, only ’coz you lost it...many people are happy having really few regrets in their lifes...
And Jackie...this topic it’s my lyric line, so, forget it!
DaminehGessle said on May 15, 2003 15:52:
I came to some conclusions about you reading your regret list :D:
1. you are over-weight.
2. Something happened to you after midnight at a stop-sign?
3. You are out of money.
4. You don’t have job or you don’t like your job.
Haha true?
I haven’t made many mistakes in my life although I know you learn a lot from your mistakes. I have always done my studyings on time. I always knew what I wanted to do with my life so I like what I am doing at school. Love oh well havent fallen in love much but yeah it hurts. Watch it. I don’t regret falling in love and doing all I could for him but yes I do regret being too nice to him. That experience has turned me into a mean person >:). What else?! Oh I’ve learned you should always keep the distance between you and your friends. I have gotten hurt for that but again, I don’t regret it. I guess I am too nice eh? Being nice is your worst enemy >:).
