If you had the chance to change just one thing in your past life ...(excluding relationships with the opposite sex)....what would it be?

I would have concentrated at school on my work as much as I did boys, I'd have gotten A*s!

I'd have not worried about things that werent worth worrying about, which made me so upset at the time, but I don't even think of now!

I wish we could go back and change things, my list is a mile long!

Wish I'd have stood up for myself & been more confident at school, and in my early twenties appreciated the value of money more and not squandered it on utter crap !

I would have been out of the house 5 minutes earlier on the morning of Thursday October 5th 1995, thus avoiding the idiot who drove a fully laden Transit van into my car, causing big injuries and (we think) my cancer, which has robbed me of my career, my independence, my ability to have children and every hobby I ever did.

I would've applied myself better at School, especially in Maths, not having a maths GCSE is affecting my suitability for even the most menial of office jobs nowadays

Sod science and all that rubbish, just gimme a bloody maths GCSE, but all the College courses charge like £200 plus exam fees, WTF?!

I'm only rich by name ya know.

I would've grabbed more opportunities earlier on in my life. I've got more memories from the few months I've been at university than I have in some of my earlier years...

From school trips to First aid training, to learning instruments and taking an interest in sports... I just didn't bother... It'd have opened a whole new door to me... It's not too late though, I can do all these things now... and it just goes to show that my university years are gonna be the best, because I'm really getting involved in stuff I'd not normally have tried... I'm fancyfree... and I'm happy

I would have found a job earlier rather than dossing around on the dole after I graduated from University...then I'd have been in a better position to buy a house before the prices went stupid
