My biggest regret was my short-sightedness as a young person, and not working hard in high school. I could've easily had a 4.0gpa and a full ride to a college, instead I fukked around and didn't try. It's not something that haunts me but I definitely would do things differently if I could. I think it's just a product of being an immature person. All I can do is try to be better everyday. I think it was just in my personality to be that way at that time.

Not playing sports in HS

I agree with this one. I was 250 my freshman year in HS. I wasn't reeally into football then but because of my size it was just something everyone expected out me. My parents, the coaches and the players but young 14 year old me didn't care, I wasn't into it so I gave a real lackluster attempt at it, didn't even try really. Now I'm a big fan of football and when I watch the game I can read the defense and see what's gonna happen before it does. I think with the way I pick up quickly on things and the fact that the coaches said I was real flexible for a guy my size then I think I would've made a great DB when I got into shape.

One of my biggest regrets is not graduating from this gifted school I got accepted into. I just didn't like it. Also I regret not playing football in High School. Other than that, I don't have too many other regrets.

I've got a few major regrets. Sophomore year in College, I was fat and out of shape (Still am now but I was then too). Couldn't dress, didn't have social skills, and no confidence with the ladies. There was this FINE AZZ redbone a year under me. If she wasn't a dime she was damn near a dime. All the freshmen nikkas sweated her along with the Juniors, Seniors BASICALLY every nikka on campus wanted to fukk and would holla. She'd shut them all down with the quickness. But I was cool with her homegirl cuz her homegirl sat next to me in a class. One day her home girl said "____ likes you you need to holler." And these girls were silly so I thought this was a setup to clown me so I just ignored her. For a whole 2 semester the dime piece redbone would always come up and talk to me and I just made small talk and never hollered cuz I thought she could never be in to a swagless fat nikka like me. Years after graduating we became FB friends and all her exes were like 350 lbs - 400 lbs fat nerdy ass nikkas. I COULD'VE GOT THAT BREHS and didn't.

I don't see why someone would regret not playing sports in High School. Unless you were an professional level talent whats to regret? If you aren''t good enough to make money off of doing something then its just a hobby :manny:

I don't do regrets, I firmly believe everything happens for a reason. I recently sat down to think about my fukk ups in life but everything came back full circle and mostly impacted my life in a positive way.

My thing wasn't so much I didn't care for sports, but the school I attended. I was a pretty elite athlete even back in grade school. I was only like 5'5" when I graduated 8th grade, and could touch the rim. I was the fastest dude in my entire school. When I got to HS, I went to a school I didn't wanna be at, and thought I would eventually transfer. Didn't try out for sports or anything since I wasn't gonna be there. By the time I was a junior, I knew I wasn't going to a different school, but by then, it was too late to become a starter or anything seeing as though they had their players, and I'd never played organized bball in my life. If I had gotten coached at an early age, there's no telling how good I could've been. I recently started back hooping at a gym a few years ago, and while I don't have the hops or speed like I did when I was younger, I've actually gotten better in other areas.

All of mine are career/school related

I love what I do but I definitely would have just spent my 4 years in college doing nothing but working to get good grades and fukking bytches. I regret not making more white friends while in school. This is easily my biggest regret. I lost so hard for this. I was around future fortune 500 CEOs, rich kids and the future most powerful people in the world and still most of my friends are nikkas.

In some ways I regret my choice to go into the music industry rather and be a dj/producer rather than just something like an investment bankers, lawyer or engineer. I love what I do but it's a much harder life where you basically have to hunt what you eat. The pros to it are tremendous, however. I think I would trade them at this point tho.

I could connect those 2 regrets.......I regret not focusing on a white audience for my DJing. I was so stuck on playing hip hop and spinning for nikkas when I should have been spinning for whites. I mean, I did.....but I was focusing on the black college/black philly crowd. This is not self hate, they pay better, are more accepting of creativity from djs and they open doors places that nikkas can't.

The list can go on and on...

Not leaving my HS to go to youth challenge; I could of graduated HS a year early and joined the af or navy, but nooo, I wanted to stay and be with my "friends"....

Going to that bullshyt paper mill for profit college (iadt-Tampa)...wasted 3 years and attained unnecessary debt....

Even bothering with females as much as I did....

Being cool with certain people....

Being so damned timid and bytch-made early in life....

Things I can't speak on due to legal purposes....

Females I SHOULD of bothered with, but didn't for whatever bullshyt reason...
