[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] CIint Beastwood I don't know. I regret a ton of small moments, but nothing life changing. I do really regret never writing to my friend Evan after I moved in the 4th grade. He apparently really cared and made sure I had his address and phone number to stay in touch, but I was terrified at the thought of having to talk to his parents (I used to be extremely shy) so I basically snubbed him. Years later I went back to California and went to another friend's birthday party. He had invited Evan and told him I would be there, but Evan never showed. I still don't know if he didn't show because he was mad at me. Makes me sad...[/quote] That is really sad :(

I would watch Clannad sooner.

In my experience, Dutch women are very nice. [Edited on 10.01.2012 3:00 AM PDT]

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Marinade I doubt I'd ever make it to a world cup. I'm Canadian. Canada hasn't been in a World Cup since, what the 70's? He'd watched a couple of games when I was 19 playing in the Men's league of my town. He said me and my brother were good enough to try out for pro teams in the Netherlands. He offered to pay for us to move there and live with him while we tried out and got settled.[/quote]I see it as like Billy Bean in Moneyball. [i]"Cut the crap, Pete. Would you have drafted me in the first round? "I would have picked you in the 9th round. No signing bonus. I think that would have convinced you to accept that scholarship."[/i]

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] BROWN HAWK [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Marinade The only thing I wonder about is what would have happened if I'd taken my great uncle up on his offer to move to the Netherlands to try playing soccer professionally. I was already enrolled in post-secondary school and didn't want to waste my scholarships.[/quote]You'd have made it to the world cup and had an infinitely better life, I'm sure. So you shouldn't worry about having passed it up :)[/quote] I doubt I'd ever make it to a world cup. I'm Canadian. Canada hasn't been in a World Cup since, what the 70's?

How a lady should be. American females are arrogant and complain all the time and cheat on you in secret. And then take your kids and half your money. American females grow up like females on TV. They like the show Desperate Housewives. Netherland females are kind and gentle and take care of kids and aren't -blam!-es. You missed out on a good chance, fool.

I'll get to sit in the front row as the only best friend who ain't wearing the bridesmaid uniform.

Hard. But it'd probably having an opportunity with someone very special but not taking it.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Bearded Elf I would go back to the first day of college, but I don't know how to change to be the person I'd rather be.[/quote]What was important about that first day?

I would go back to the first day of college, but I don't know how to change to be the person I'd rather be.

I would say yes the first time my friends tried to peer pressure me to smoke herb.

I can't change any one moment to bring me where I want to be. I figure the best thing I could have done to get me where I'd like to be is to have never made the choice to quit skating. A love for hockey would have served me well in my school years. Maybe I'd have her wearing my ring instead of his.

I am pretty happy where my life is now, and I don't know what implications changing something might bring.[/quote]Yeah, I know how that feels. Well, one, my life isn't interesting and hasn't consisted of major choices, and two, I don't dwell on changing what I can't. [Edited on 10.01.2012 2:18 AM PDT]
