If you could change 5 things about your life.... - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Mossopp · 03-31-2003, 06:44 PM

If I could go back, I would have -

* never have befriended Natalie Burns.
* never have made the decision that self-harm was a sensible solution to my problems.
* never have started drinking on a regular basis just cos I was bored.
* told Carmen how I really felt about her.
* gone to university instead of rotting away in an office 9 to 5, 5 days a week, every week for the past 3 years of my Godforsaken life.

Uh why?

~LadyJess~ · 03-31-2003, 09:14 PM

I'd speak up more and wouldn't let people walk all over me

That's the only big one that I can think of right now

brownsocks · 03-31-2003, 09:20 PM

-i'd have beat the everlasting piss out of a guy i know a while back(no one talks about my friends like that!)
-told brittany how i felt a lot sooner
-tell jill how i felt a lot sooner(i at least had a chance with her)
-not make so many enimies with people who like to bother me
- and last and least do that damn section on my math exam...cost me ten points but i still made 85

*PinkLady* · 03-31-2003, 09:59 PM

-I would have never been friends with Angela.
-I would change my looks.
-I wouldn't be boy-crazy. I mean, I don't mind that, but I crush on different people way too often, and people get sick of hearing about it.
-I would be more assertive and less tongue-tied.
-I would be an average student with average intelligence instead of being an A student and having so many expectations to meet.

#2 *I'd change my family and live with the people that I truly love
#3 *I'd change the way I've felt/been for the past year.. i.e. depressed, crazy, suicidal, crazy, depressed....
#4 *I'd change the way people were to me in the past
#5 *I'd change my reputation with people (see #2)

JoJoJoJoJoJoJoJoJo · 03-31-2003, 10:27 PM

I'd change a few physical things.. like my hair, my weight, my face shape, etc...

I'd never EVER went out w/ John from work.. oh god, huge mistake...

I'd never applied for a damn credit card!

Sometimes, i wish i had never started drinking...

My mom not kiling herself.. god i'd give anything for that to change... so so SOO many things would be different now.

AnaheimPMWitch · 03-31-2003, 10:39 PM

Hmm I would have never gone out with Joe
I would have never befriended HALF of my Friends
I would have never taken the Job I have now
I Would have Moved to cali by now
and I would have found Love by now

ABlairican Pie · 03-31-2003, 10:50 PM

1. I wished I had finished college when I did.
2. I wished that I had finished learning to drive.
3. I wish that I could lose weight.
4. I wish that I could quit my job and be a successful author.

And most of all, I wish I could do something about all the pain all of you have been through and eased your suffering and not have you inflict harm on yourselves...like I had on myself years ago.

I almost thought I was alone in the whole cutting deal. It's almost like I don't even like to think about it. I did it back in 1979 to take attention away from other problems, things I couldn't deal with. I only have a faded scar on the top of my wrist. I guess I never really felt serious about hurting myself more deeply than that...God, it was a frightful day. Nothing really so bad, but when you (btw, I'm hearing a song right now that applies to this situation "Angry Young Man (Killing Yourself)" by Styx, always liked that song

) are just so alone out in the world, and the pain just eats away at you, you feel like, okay, whatever. You look for attention by doing this, and yet you feel so damn awkward when people ask about it...You almost can't tell anyone.
I remember everything so vividly from when I was 16.

Tuesday Weld · 03-31-2003, 10:59 PM

Why stop at 5?There's just so much about my life,I'd like to change.Too much to list.
