High School - Do You Have Any Regrets?

alphabassettgrrl · 05-30-2008, 11:02 AM

I was glad when high school ended.

Regrets? Only that I wish I had spent less time and energy trying to fit in with what I thought were the cool people. I had a habit of taking in stray people, and then I'd abandon them when they couldn't help me be popular. Not smart and not a good thing.

On the bright side, I did find the small group of friends that worked with me. Only one of them is still a friend; I left the area and have never looked anybody up. I've learned that me finding friends is a numbers game- interview many, wish most of them well and send them on their way, and I'm left with just a few, but good friends.
