I would have taken the full ride plus stipend to go to law school at University of Akron rather than put myself nearly $100k in debt to go to George Washington University Law School.
I would have gone to med school instead of law school.
I would have bought a slightly cheaper house so I wouldn't feel so hamstrung by the big mortgage.

Sometimes I wish I would have bought a SVT instead on my Se, however at the time the SE was the only option so I guess I really dont care.
I find myself wishing I would have graduated with a different degree as I am 6 months out of school and cant find a decent job in my field.
I also wish I would have kept in touch with friends from the past but thats life and friendships are a two-way deal.

If I could do it all over again:
I would have had sex with every willing participant that I turned down from age 14-16. While oral was fun, sex would have been better!
I would have never joined the Army: It put me 3yrs behind in the salary & field I'm in now and I completely missed the tech boom in '99 and half of '00 where I could have had more wealth and actually been able to afford a home.
I would have never sold my '81 CJ8
I would have accepted that six figure job offer a year earlier

What would I have done differently?
I would have bought several houses on my street back when they were affordable. I'd be a wealthy landlord now.
I would have majored in biology and then gotten a PhD in marine biology, instead of majoring in psychology and then getting a J.D.
I would have dated just about every girl I could, instead of only the ones who seemed ideal.
I would have spent a semester of college abroad. Maybe in Japan.

I would learn to surf earlier on in life, but if I would have done that, I'd probably be a beach-bum somewhere in Central America that had $5 to my name.
I would have finished my pilot's license.
I would have kept playing piano.
That's about it.

I would not have ever tried smoking, any kind of drug, or drinking. Either that, or just done a lot more drugs and drinking. No in the middle crap.
I would try to have more fun in high school.
I would try to get into more fights.
I would not have bad grades my first semester of college.
I would not have modded the contour.

Well, if I could do it over, I would have done what I could to convince my husband not to have gotten out of the military back in 92. He came back active in Feb 2001 after he realized how much he missed the Air Force and hated the postal service. LOL. We'd most likey be in a BETTER financial postition today if he had stayed in. He acutally would be ready for retirement in 4 years if he had stayed in, now we have to wait another 13 years.

Sounds familiar.
But what if I feel my friends have too narrow of interests that my social life isn't the best?
If I could do it over again, I would appreciate every moment I had with my Dad. I would persuade my Grandparents to keep the Lakehouse. I would never have dwelled four years on an ex gf turned best friend. I would have dated the girls I turned away because of said ex gf.
If I could do it over again, I would relive last summer. On repeat.

I never would have gotten married. My daughter is the only good thing that came out of it. I have a feeling that I'm going to take it in the ----> (__!__) during the divorce.

Isn't that just the wrong way?
Yeah, but faster!

I would have tried in High School, I don't know if I would be any happier, but I would have a lot more money. I would have told my dad I loved him before it was too late. I probably would have bought that Escort GT instead of the 'tour.....although if I did that I wouldn't be here.  I wouldn't have let my first love go.
