No. It's things that are unfeasable or actually impossible to go back and change. Some big ones:

- Not saving any money and racking up debt while in college despite having a free ride.

- Getting braces in highschool. Teeth weren't even bad but braces totally destroyed any confidence I had with girls. Ruined highschool to be honest. Well that and a couple month long demerol addiction after I messed up my collarbone.

- Not fixing my car after my accident. It has slowly degraded into a POS and has now sort of handcuffed me financially (this just happened today actually). I used to absolutely love that thing.

- Not trying harder in school/paying attention in Math. Everything else was upgradable but I slacked off so badly in Math through my whole grade school career that I could barely pass applied 30 and had to upgrade. I don't hate the degree that my grades made me take and I don't think that I'm "stuck" but I would definitely like to have done other things.

- Taking the job I'm at now. Not a big deal, going to start hunting tonight but kind of a waste of time and I could have had a better footing at another company by now.

- Quitting Tae Kwon Do. Olympics were an honest possibility. Might not have made it but definitely had a shot.

Just a short list without anything too overly personal.
