I have 2,
1) Dropping out of high school, well actually I got kicked out but may as well say I dropped out because I just stopped showing up. If I would have stayed it would have taken me 6 years to graduate. I wish I went to summer school my first sophmore year, if i did I wouldn't have failed and would have stayed with my original homeroom
2) Passing on a free ride to a tech school that would have given me a degree in Welding, If I accepted I would have gone up to company near me and had a starting wage of 16 bucks an hour which is extremely good for this area for 20 years work let alone a starting salary. I guess I was scared that I would fail like I failed at HS so I took the easy road and took a job placement program that funny enough failed for me anyways.

for me
1. Watching "The Happening"
2. not buying a car that looked good and drove even better....cost a little more than what I have now but it was newer and it looked much better.
3. accepting that job at the library - i hated it 9/10 minutes I was there
the second two affected my life pretty greatly but I still have to live with it.

Hmm... there are minor things I regret. Such as, not being able to jon marching band a year earlier, but that was due to money problems. I'm just 15, so I haven't really lived enough to have huge things to regret.

everybody does stupid stuff that they wish they could change, so if you end up regretting stuff, don't worry about it.
unless you do something you know you're going to regret, or you know is a bad decision, it doesn't really matter.
if i mess up, i feel like i have to redeem myself. so yeah haha.

I guess the biggest regret i have, was not having the guts to go see my ex-boyfriend when he was in hospital with a coma. He died before i had the courage to see him in that state.
But it's in the past now and i guess it's better i remember him as the adrenaline-junkie, amazing biker, skater, gamer and lover that he was and not an unconscious boy in a bed.
ever since then, i decided to live my life with no regrets. 'cos who knows what'll happen tomorrow.

I regret losing so much stuff.
I have a tendency to lose a lot.
Like, freshman year of high school, i lost like, 4 books, 3 jackets, a pair of snare sticks, and a practice pad, an ipod, and 2 straps.
But, the amount of things lost, got smaller as the years progressed.

1.) Deciding to blow my tax return on crap, when I should have saved it. (Car repairs a month later were over a grand)
2.) One chick I dated during high school
3.) Not spending more time with my step-brother who killed himself last Christmas eve.
4.) Not spending more time with my other step-brother who is a complete and utter drug addict/car thief
5.) Not figuring out what I wanted to do for my major three years into college and wasting my parents and my own good money.

The first thing that came to mind was watching Saving Private Ryan when I was about 10, and that was before I had really seen any violent movies. I didn't even see the whole thing either, just the first 30 mins or so. I was traumatized for quite a while after that happened.
Most of my regrets right now are just things like forgetting to say thank you (which I have gotten much better at now) and not picking things up for people when they drop them.

I regret getting involved in a few people's lives.
It was a bad decision and only caused me irritation and anger.
I also regret not being there more for my friend Nikki who committed suicide last January.

Regrets...
I got a couple.
Nothing HUGE 'cause I haven't lived through something that bad yet. Luckily.
I regret making my greatest friend have to put up with me, and after everything I've put her through, I'm amazed she's still there for me.
I regret jealousy taking control of me.
I regret the way I treated my mom.

Another one,
I guess I could have treated my greatest friend a bit better myself when we were in our feuds.
But luckily, things always turn out good.
Tighter than ever. (:
I don't have any regrets, except maybe being a perfectionist. My parents always expected the best of me. When I lost an award for highest average last year because of tenth of a point, they acted all sad and angry, which made me push myself to hard this year.

1. Getting married and having a kid at the age of 20. I love my son more than life but everything is just a little harder for me.
2. Dropping out of College. Could have been finished by now and working someplace much nicer than a hot warehouse full of middle aged women who behave like preschoolers.

I was gonna say "dropping out"
But then I remembered that it wasn't technically my fault.
Which i forget often but whatever.
My answer shall be, I regret nothing.
Sure I've screwed up a lot, my phone bill this month is way over my head and is gonna get me in trouble because I have no money, but whatever.
Things happen and they haven't killed me yet.
i got a boyfriend, a ****ed up family, a few friendlike people, and soon, a kitten.
And kittens make everything better.
I do not regret a single drink.
Nor a joint.
Nor any previous ****ed up relationships.
Nor any deaths I have encountered.
I don't regret the way I've treated people.
I don't regret friendships that I've lost.
I'm feelin pretty fine about what I've done, even when things are absolutely, totally, ****ed.
