What would you change? Anything, everything, lots of bits, little bits, certain small parts? I just wondered because I had a dream last night where I got to relive my whole life and change whatever I wanted. When I woke up I was really disappointed because I was so sure it was real.
I think the first ten years of my life don't matter SO much because we moved up to Chesterfield then. I think there's a lot about myself that I'd change, the way I acted in school, the way I acted out of school, all the missed opportunities for a girlfriend/sex because I was too dumb to see them.
I think I would still like to end up where I am, working where I am, with the people I know. I can't imagine being at University.
So would you change anything in your past life if you could, or are you completely happy with how it went? :chin:

Lots of shit has happened in my life but its made me the person i am.
Still, I'm a happy young woman where I am now...
I wouldn't change Scott. Much as I hate him, I wouldn't remove him from my life. He gave me a lot of self-confidence at the time and he's made me a better person (or at least I think so). He also made me realise just how much I was being walked over at school.
I also think he made it so me and you were better friends, even if it took a while ;p.
That would be the only thing thing I would have changed. However, there are always other minor issues people experience and I have only lived an eighth of my life anyway.
you really never do get those years back, and i was so busy with my ridiculous 'woe is me' crap that i missed out on them.
Very true. Wouldn't change a thing. Other than my socks.
also i know i can't change the past so there's no point in even thinking about what i'd do if i could!

That's the answer, if you changed anything then you wouldn't be who you are now. Changing something doesn't mean that things would be better y'know.
Wouldn't have been such a waster at school, worked harder, you know?
Would try not to drink away part of my school life.
The first part of my answer would be that I'd have changed a couple of things that seem unimportant but I believe play a huge role in everything that have happened (my life is a good example for the Chaos Theory). I wouldn't have done something that set me apart from everyone else. I wouldn't have trusted the wrong people so I wouldn't have missed a lot of chances and the thing that's causing me lots of trouble today probably never would have been.
But, as others have said, if anything changed I wouldn't be the same anymore. In my case though that's not necessarily a bad thing... I'd probably never have "died", but I can't tell if I'd be a good person or not. Perhaps I'd even have died anyway...
Woud I change things? Yes. I would have got into some good habits, and avoided some bad. I would know what homosexuality was, and how best to go about it. I would have cared less about what people thought of me, and seen through organised rligion sooner.
Perhaps we would still find each other. Hopefully, I would bring them less second-hand pain. If we didn't meet, I hope they would meet someone closer to the perfection they deserve than I .
