27 going on 14
04.27.04 (4:49 pm)   [edit]
Physically, I'm 27 but emotionally, I feel around 14. I mean, I still sleep with my teddy bear and I collect beanie babies...and I'm as much self-centered as I have ever been. Sad, but true.

Today, The Fast One wants to see 13 Going on 30 with Jennifer Garner, who I cannot believe is 32 years old. She looks like she's in her early 20's. The idea of the film made me wonder what it would be like to go in reverse. What if I went back to 1990 knowing everything I know now?

Oooooh! I could see it now. Those mean bullies at school wouldn't know what hit them. I'd make Michael R. eat his own shit!!! I wouldn't pay those pretentious snobby girls any attention and I'd appreciate my friends a whole lot more. I had such a tight little group of friends. My Dad dubbed us "The Gang of Five". As an adult I have never been able to bond as closely with my friends as I did as a teenager. Even when I go home and see my old school friends, we're not as close anymore. Plus, I'd invest in Microsoft.

If you had the chance to go back in time to change one event in your past, what would it be? Forget about all the space-time continuum stuff and how changing one event would unravel your whole future and may be your entire existence.

Unravel me dag gonnit! Were I to go back.. Oh. I don't know. I'd have gone with Brian to the prom. My Prom. Not his. And I'd have had more fun on the Senior trip. I wouldn't have moved away from NY when I had the chance. I would have stayed in college. I would have shot hubby 2 days after the wedding(j/k) more like 3 days. I would have tried to experience life more before having babies... I would have invested in Yahoo!! :)

This may sound really shallow but I wouldn't have put on as much weight as I have done (and lost and put on again!) Other than that things are sent to try us aren't they? (*especially my husband!) Joolie xxx

I would never (at the age of twelve) have sat my mother down and told her I was old enough for her to tell me she wasn't my birth mother. OUCH!

If I could go back, I'd have made better use of my time back at Uni....

Ouch indeed! Every year I would ask my parents to promise me that I was not adopted. For some reason I was afraid of that. Weird, huh?

My Mom always said that the past makes you who you are but putting all the existential stuff aside, I think I'd have made my parents send my to tennis camp every year.

It's so true...I don't know who said this but when we die, I doubt any of us will say that we regret not spending more hours at work.

It was an OK movie. I prefer BIG with Tom Hanks of this genre of films. Jennifer Garner was really good but the way the movie ended ticked me off. Way too convenient and wrapped up too quickly into a pretty package.

Uni was awesome and I totally didn't appreciate my undergrad days until they were over. So much potential wasted. Oh well....

Yeah well hindsight is a great thing isn't it? I just passed thru Uni, never really got to grips with all it had to offer, one regret that I actually have.... but like you said.. Oh well....

I've often thought about what it would be like to go back and live my life over again. But these days, I'd ask myself why bother? I've already done all that. If we ignore the effect it would have on the present, then it makes no difference at all.

Certain times in my life were more fun. College was fun. But would I really want to spend my time studying all that material, much of which is useless today? Of course all that's irrelevant anyway if it affects nothing.

I could go back to high school. It would be a breeze with what I know now. But if I'm not getting anything out of it, and few people would like somebody who knows everything and has the emotional maturity not to fit in at all, that would just make me an outcast.

If I could do it all over again and change my life forever, I might be interested. I could go to better schools and direct my future toward where I know it would be applicable decades later. But I don't know if I would end up being any better off. If I don't ignore the effect on the future, I have no clue if my kids would be any nicer or if my wife would be any better.

So I'll just wait around until somebody invents time travel so I know how it really works. Of course if somebody does that in the future and it really works, wouldn't I know about it by now? I would if that person could go back in time and interact freely.
