no undoing of deaths or severe injuries/illnesses....i know most of us would like to stop someone we loved or cared about from makin' a decision which ended up takin' their life...but let's try to keep that from this thread.... Really this thread is meant 4 u to state some big regrets you've had w/ certain people in your life...past & present...if you could do things even slightly differently...what you would do.... But you can name some other regrets that don't deal with people...or that aren't as big...if ya like....

And I'm agreeing with you 100% buuut at the same time...every now and again I sit and think dam what if I woulda never ran away from.....................then I think about the obvious things that would have/not happened and I'm like well I guess I can live with my decision because look what came as an indirect consequence. Yeah, I know it seems like I'm babbling, but I know what I'm talkin about.....but uh yeah I really believe in living with no regrets and everything happens for a reason. Weather it takes a day a year or a life time to find out the reason, there's a method to this madness. Okey-dokey :arrow:

I'd go all the way back to 9th grade with the knowledge I have now and run track in the 9th grade. I would work so **** the track so I could be the one every school heard about. I'd practice my french horn harder and actually go out for a scholarship at the hbcu I attend later on. (Even though I was already section leader and a durn good player) I would not mess up things wit my first love My grades would be straighter than Mariah Carey's hair wit a new perm I wouldn't of gotten caught skipping school Sorry to say this but I would not have went to Paine, Albany State either. I would have never gotten that perm for my senior pics, had to grow my hair out again cuz I didn't like the sh!t I would try to stop one of my best friend's sister from getting pregnant

I regret..... --Not focusing more on my grades. Maybe i'd have a better GPA, and I'd get scholarships and stuff...and a wider range of colleges to apply to. --Being so shy....I can't help it tho... --Not being a more outgoing person. I hope that changes this coming year. --Not being closer to one of my sisters. I'm cool with my baby sister, but the middle sister.... --Not being more aware when my sister (the same middle sister ^) was doin stuff she had no business doing...

There are things I want to change...but there are reasons that happen the way that they do. My second semester freshman year, wish I hadn't of lost my focus... I coulda pledged when I wanted to, cuz my g.p.a woulda been TIIIGHT! ...but then agian...I would have been pledging something I wasn't sure about...and me getting the time to build my g.p.a up, gave me a better insight into what I REALLY wanted to do. I wish I hadn't broke up with my ex-boyfreind in the 10th grade, because I wanted him back in the 12th grade and it was doggon hard getting him back.... ....but then agian, if I had of stayed with him, we probably would have gotten engaged like we had planned on doing and I wouldn't have meet the prince I'm with now. I wish I would have done better at the Golden Delight tryouts.... ...but then agian...thats some hard **** ****and I wouldn't be so close to my freinds that I have now if I had of made GD. I wish that me and my current boyfreind hadn't of broke up on such bad terms the first time... ....but then agian, the second time around is soooo much better and I like it that way.

I completely agree w/ xavierette.. I try not to regret things, however, if I could go back and change some stuff w/ GOD's blessing, I'd make my brother a saint... (so many less problems if he hadn't been locked up..) which directly affected my grades.. I got a 2.0 Junio ryear and graduated w/ a 3.5.. that also fukked up my chances of going to school completely free (I could've been a merit finalist..).. Oh.. and also, I wish I had stayed in track for my entire high school experience... it would've been better for me, and I would've been tighter w/ some folks.. Last but not least, I wish I had jumped on the opportunity to go out w/ one of my friends.. *sigh* he is gorgeous, but I didn't wan tot let him know I liked him, and now girls are crazy about him and our relationship is getting strained...and I'm afraid he'll get hurt.. I wish I coulda made stuff better between us.... Oh Well.. In due time.. Check the siggy
