What would you change?
Your biggest regret, something you really want to change?
Probably not getting to know people in secondary school better. I was always able to speak to people, but I only ever properly knew around 10 or so close friends. I wasn't even the type to go sit by himself at lunch, I was talking to everyone and had a good laugh with all types. That's definitely what I regret, because everyone from my year's meeting up and having fun and everything, but I don't know where I'd fit into that.
I would love to be in shape and not be a freakishly tall fat fuck. I would also like my mother to still be alive.
I also regret "dropping out" of school. I'm going to school again but now at an alternative school and I'm set back one year.
I would probably send my past self a little lesson about nutrition and fitness.
The negative state of my financial situation, if I just had a few thousand right now I'd be in a much better position.
My biggest regret in life is probably this one time when I was at work and some guy asked his daughter if she wanted the soft taco or hard taco kit for dinner that night. In my head I was screaming, "por que no los dos?!" but I kept quiet and didn't say anything out loud.
... a perfect opportunity missed.

So I guess I'd go back and fix that.
If I could, I'd go back and stop my procrastination habits. Life right now would be easier if I hadn't done past procrastination.
Take away my autism.
I want to know what it's REALLY like to be like everyone else.
Edited: What's so funny? ;_;
To be in shape/healthy
Dunno. Can't figure out how to undo the shitty parts without sacrificing other things. I guess just getting in shape earlier than I did.

I still procrastinate every now and again but nowadays I set things up so that future me has an easy, chilled, relaxed time.
Past me is a bro. Top bloke.
Change your habits, man! You won't regret it!
I wish I would have somehow discovered my passion sooner than I did.
I'd tell myself to socialize more because now I have anxiety taking to people or just being around them.
I wish that I never really got into alcohol. It's been the cause of quite a few of my problems over the past two years. I successfully abstained from it for a period of 10 months before, but I just can't seem to replicate that.

i wish i'd realized that i had problems and fixed them when i was younger. i spent so much of my life being pretentious and annoying to other people that by the time i realized it and made a move to better myself, i'd already lost a chunk of my life that i now deeply regret not using, and alienated a lot of people that could have been good friends if i'd just let them.
at least now i'm actually learning. it just sucks that i had to fuck up so badly before i could become a better person.
Go back in time and tell my young self to stop being so anal about the rules. I never had fun in school because I obeyed all the rules until high school. I'd also go back in time and take better maths classes, I never took any so when I graduated I didn't have anything advanced under my belt.
Lastly, I'd beat the [I]shit[/I] out of Middle School Me for being so annoying and dumb. I had the capacity to be smarter but I was too snotty and rude. Really ruined my entire life.
i'd slap my young self right in the mouth and tell him to take more risks, be smart and do good in school, and don't worry so much.
My age, I've barely started my life at 22 but I wish I could go back to being 14 and have the same knowledge as now. I know this is going to carry on throughout life, wishing that now at 22 I am as wise as I will be at 30.
Life experiences are so rich and allow you to improve so many things in your life.
I wish I had started losing weight a year or so before I actually did (when I kept saying I would).
Restart my education. I regret going into astrophysics. I had tons and tons of passion for it in the beginning, lost basically all of it. I want to go into compsci or something - I changed at the last minute to astrophysics. I don't get the same satisfaction from doing a physics problem right that I got from a successful code compile. Even then, if I could truly do it again, I'd become a translator or make music or become a chef or teach English.
I'm now failing three out of four courses this semester, which will probably lead to expulsion, or probation at the least, and I'm $20000 in debt now. I can't imagine the disappointment on my parents' faces. If I pass, then I'm stuck doing a job I don't want to do until I get the balls to go back to college to do another degree, at which point my youth is gone.
Nothing. As much as I'd love to change stuff about my life because it'd probably put me in a better situation, the things I've experienced have shaped me into who I am today and I've learned to accept that.
I would not have long hair for 10 years. Only now that I have it short am I realizing how extensively terrible it was.
I would have been a hell ov' a lot more proactive about getting an internship somewhere. I would have been phenomenal to start that process a few years earlier.
More extroverted.
mostly saving money. I bought a lot of shit as a kid I really didn't need. I'd be rolling in dough if I had the money from everytime I spent money on something I regret/candy at the corner store down the street.
I regret nothing.
Change the fact I'm basque, normal Spaniards here in America don't take too kindly to me cause of that, and it's sad I guess.
Another thing that isn't stuff like that is depression, I wanna see what life is when you're happy, I can't smile nor can I think positively. Everyone asks why I'm so negative, but I never tell them cause it's cause I'm so suicidal and depressed, I just lie it off and hope they believe it.
