Should've looked for a better high school instead of staying home all the time. Kinda sucks that the friends I made when I turned things around are all off on free rides at whatever university they chose and I'm headed back home to finish there.
Would be nice to have had a father figure. I'm probably not as disciplined as I should be.
My great aunt was a nun so I probably should've been more involved in the church. I didn't communicate with her and my grandma as much as I should have. Those are some of the things you realize after people die, unfortunately.
Otherwise, I'm pretty content with how things are. When you look at what some other people have to go through, my situation is comparatively dandy.
And one other important thing I forgot about: Should've gotten a job in HS so I could have had more money before the bust came around. Sucks when you can call something exactly so that you could have made a huge profit but don't have the money to put into it. At least I got something.

What would I want to change? First, my appearance. When I was young, I look like an 🤬! Very unorganised, just out of place. I want to look all good and have a better appearance.
Second, primary school. I was rubbish, probably one of the worst student ever. That, I want to change and be a better student.
Third, not wasting my first love. She was a beauty, but 🤬 I ruined it. I want that to be fixed too and of course, getting in hang with her.
Also, be a good person and not all about disturbing girls and all.. Pffft. Yeah, I was naughty back then
That's all I think. I've done very well in my teen years

Wish I had said "no" to drugs. You never realize how bad you are and how much money you snort/smoke/swallow until you stop.

I have a buddy that has dumped $20k in less than a year on weed alone.

If I could go back all the way before I was born, I would change my chromosomes to make it so I didn't have Asperger's syndrome. Other then that, I don't think there is anything else I would change.

I would've joined GTPlanet under the name of "Penguin" before the current "Penguin" took that name...

Believe it or not Omnis I had a buzzcut for probably 12 years. Just started growing it out a few years ago. My overbite throws my jaw off slightly so from the side it looks funny. The hair kinda covers it up (plus I'm a rocker lol). That and when I was little I faceplanted down a cliff and busted my nose so it's bent slightly.
My goodness.
He has about $6K left. That'll be gone in 3 months. It was the money he got when his father passed. What a waste.

There's too many things to list. The main ones would probably be to be a bit looser in high school and to starting to work during high school.

I would refrain from asking the girl I went to prom with out on a date afterwards, since it turned out she was moving to California.
I would have asked a few girls out (but of course, I say that now...), or one if it worked out.
I probably would have not taken AP Calculus BC in high school, because despite doing my absolute best and passing the exam I didn't get a good enough score to get college credit for it, so it ended up being a colossal waste of time (I'm a music major).
I would prevent myself from getting hit in the eye with a golf club in elementary school.
I would change my name. It's dull, uninteresting and mispronounced so much (my first name, Brennan, is constantly pronounced Brendan, Brandon or even Brian, and it drives me insane.) I want to pull all my hair out. I would change it to something that sounded cool, with a first name impossible or at least very difficult to mispronounce, and an awesome last name that is cool and unique enough that it actually sounds good when you name a company after your last name ("Johns?" for one, that already exists, and everyone instantly knows that's just some guy's last name.)
Other than these insignificant things I would change, I love my life and wouldn't change anything else.

Was she cute? Where in California does she live? Get me her number? (I'm kidding)
I would have not wasted so much time in getting into football. I would have probably made better decisions regarding my personal life (Blowing off your mates for alomst a year to be with your girlfriend because she goes to a different school tends to kill your social life when she dumps you)
Would have been slightly more frugal with my money.
Would have pretended to care a bit more in school (Maxing out your testing grade doesnt always make up for your pathetic homework grade)
Thats about it.
