    It would have to be taking my education more seriously. If I knew then, what I knew now ... well, let's just leave it at that.

    To be able to say that I am not the cause of any of my problems.

    This will probably be the reverse (or, inverse) of the usual repsonse. That's because the usual reaction is to blame "the system".

    The only "system" I recognize is my own. And I recognize that if people stopped creating their own misery, no one would really care about "world peace", "abortion issues" or any other "cause" that they use to try and put the blame of an unsatisfied life on.

    That's the only thing I would change. And, luckily, it happens to be the most realstic thing to change.

    I was in love with this girl when I was in highschool. She was beautiful, like an angel. She had the most beautiful smile I have ever seen and a great personality. I regret not ever saying anything to her. I would go back in time and give her flowers and tell her that I am crazy for her.

    I would have never dated the guy I went with for 5 yrs back when I was 18. I believe this is what made me take this roller coaster toll, I broke up with him 3 yrs ago but I lost alot of friends behind his dumb a$$

    I would of taken my education more seriously in high school. I just got by and never worked to my potential. Went to business school afterwards, but I never did find out what my potential really was. Never pursued what I wanted. I never knew that the sky was the limit for me and all I had to do is to reach for it and work hard towards it.

    I would probably change something about the world rather than about myself. Like for example get rid of global warming... or racism or Bush.

    I wouldn't take my first relationship as seriously as i took, i really think that was the point when i got more messed up in my life and that I could change.
