Another chance

[mousewings]

@DWD: I hope everything turns out okay for you. It really helps to talk to your friends. Please don't do anything drastic.


As for what I would change in my past, I would not change anything as my past experiences made me who I am today.

Well... if I had to I would have wished to never have met my ex. The whole thing was good while it lasted, but caused me to become quite... apathetic about daily life. It also made my world crash down when he said he did not love me anymore. I do not feel the relationship would have worked, so it is a good thing that it ended. Makes me a bit depressed thinking about it and what is associated with it. To console myself, I remember that sadness is one of life's experiences and mine has... made me better than who I was before.

Hmmmmmmm...

-I'd take better care of my ears.
-Instead of playing classical guitar for 10 years, I'd ditch it and get that electric guitar I really wanted.
-Stand up for myself more (against the bullies at school, then maybe I wouldn't be the reclusive nut job I am now ).
-Tell that girl that I worshipped from afar when I was 15 (and 16, and 17, and 18 ...yep, same girl...), how I really felt.
-Work harder in school. I always got good grades, but never really put an effort into anything other than music class. Heh, didn't figure out the purpose of everything until I was 22 or so...

ummm, that's about all, I think

I´d never change a thing in my life. Everything I have done have learnt me something, and I´d not be the one I am today ( a stupid, never learning, idiot, who listens to music all the time instead of doin´what he ought to do, and who constantly hangs around here wasting time...) without those mistakes...

I would go back to being a child but with all the knowledge I have now Otherwise, I am quite happy and at peace with myself now so there's no anything I could think about changing.

 

[Opet]

I agree.

Only with the knowledge I have today. I like my life and what it's taught me. I'm figuring, if you change one thing, you end up changing a lot of other things along with it whether you wanted to or not. The snowball effect. Nah, I think I'd just leave everything the way it is.

Okay, if there was one thing, I'd give myself some metal when I was younger because I didn't get into it really until I was about 18. "The wasted time always searching for those wasted years."

well that's what my literature teacher told me when I told her that I wanted literature but I was surely going for laws so I could have money and stuff
now I am very happy in literature

This is very much a selfesteem issue for me.
To make something is one thing, to "put it out"
is a whole other story. To feel like what I do is
"good enough for others" is very hard for me.

All these negative thoughts about my own work
has made me stop doing it, and now I sit here,
like an empty shell. Sort of get a block from it all.

But I'll never stop, just need to sort some stuff
out, and get back into the game >)

And thanks for the encouraging words, they
actually helped! ) And, it makes me happy,
that YOU'RE happy doing literature! )

I did exactly the same as you, Blackspirit, when choosing school. I had wanted to take drawing/form/colour since 6th grade or smth, then half a year before I was to choose, I started thinking that I would get very tired of painting and drawing all the time, and that I'd rather just do it as a hobby at home. I cannot believe I even thought about that, though, considering how tired I was from shcool already when I started in "ungdomsskolen".

But well, it's hard to change the past; better to do smth about your future. And for what I would have done if I could change smth... hehe, yes, I do know what that would have been...

 

[manuelgv]

yeah.
maybe I'll never be rich or something but at least I do what I like
and I enjoy it a lot
it was a tough decision to just follow what I wanted and not what would make everyone else happy or proud of me
but luckily everyone was proud that I was brave enough to follow my guts

 

[Ziuwarian]

Just feel like digging

Well, hard to say what to change or just if to change things at all, maybe there are things I'd like to change about my life, REALLY harsh mistakes, with bad consequences for other people. But then on the other hand, it made me the person I am today. But I think if it would help the others I might have hurt through my actions, I would change it. Wouldn't it be interesting to see what kind of person you would have become if you did just ONE thing in your past differently? Such things like when you just HAVE to choose without knowing what choice might be good and what not?

I would not have strained my back last night.

God damnit!

 

[Lordenlil]

I would study to become an artist. My uncles are amazing artists
(painting, drawing images), and they're self-taught. Wasn't any
computers for them back then so they did this.
I know I got it in me too, as I've won contests without even
putting my heart into what I've made. I do some digital stuff
now and then, but I wanna be better at drawing and painting
etc. I love images, they are extremely interesting to me.
Beautiful images combined with music is life, and if u put in
some poetry to... WOOOYEAH!!

But now I've become a computer engineer instead.... weird!

 

[DeadWinterDead]

I would change all the crap that's been happening to me lately. I just wish I could have a relationship. I hate feeling lonely!

@Nomad: That sucks man!

 

[Hiljainen]

I would change a lot of things...too much to say.
First i want to live in another place..
I like my school(art school),but i don't know what to do in my life...ehm..today i'm not in a good mood!
