If I could turn back the hands of time

Regret.
One word that is reflective of soooooo much in a person's life.
I can recall a line in the movie Center Stage (yes, I loved that movie - I actually own it and I'm not ashamed) where the bulimic girls mother tells her "I know what regret feels like and I don't want that for you, I know what it's like to look back and wish". I had no idea viewing that movie for the first time or the 30 subsequent times I viewed it after that I'd be able to relate to that line in any way before I was at least 40. As I sit at my desk at a job that I hate I've started listing me regrets. Here are a few:

5.) I regret going to an all girl's high school
I've mentioned this before so I won't elaborate but I and
wannabestarlet still have a tremendous amount of bitterness over our high school years

4.) I regret not having more fun in college
Why oh why wasn't I kicking it, hoe-ing out and just living life to it's fullest when I was college. Had I known then it would be my last chance to enjoy life essentially free of any real responsibility I definitely would have.

3.) I regret not being involved in any sort of organized sports team when I was younger
At least I would have been in shape at some point in my damn life.
I refuse to even start that rant.

2.) I regret every single day I've spent working at a job that I don't like
I hate my company and I've wasted soooooo much time here working my ass off for basically nothing, working for people who don't give a shit about me, and just wasting my talent and hard work in a place that does not respect or reward any of it's employees. This place is a fucking nightmare.

1.) I regret not having the courage to go to art school
This is my number one regret because everyday that I'm working anywhere I know I'll wish I had the guts to follow my heart and not my head which tells me it's not safe to bet on a maybe. I look at art students with barely concealed envy because I wish I had at least tried.
