Regrets?

I'm not sure if I have any regrets or not. You could argue, that if you changed one tiny thing in your past, you wouldn't be where you are now. 'Now' is pretty good as it goes, so from that point of view - no regrets.
On the other hand, there are so many things I wish I had done differently... wow, so many.

I'd have stuck with my driving lessons and passed my test by now, even though I'd still be in debt for the lessons! There's no chance of my getting a car any time soon, but it would've been a nice achievement anyway.
I would've taken music at GCSE (instead of Performing Arts) and stayed in all the choirs, bands etc., that's a big one. I let myself just drift away from the music department at school, even though music is still a huge part of me. Stupid. I also feel a bit cheeky for re-joining all the choirs in the last year of school... better late than never?!
One thing I regret doing (rather than not doing) is taking Physics at A-Level. I think lots of other people made a similar mistake, in that it was easy-ish at GCSE so why not take it for A-Level? Wrong. Physics was horrible, difficult and stupid. Not a good move. I think I would've liked Philosophy and Ethics, or Film Studies maybe.

So today I spent the morning/afternoon doing not much, then I went out with my Mum to have dinner with my grandparents which was nice. Now I'm panicking about this wedding a few of us are singing at tomorrow. The wedding itself doesn't worry me, it's how to get to bloody Reigate! See, this is why I regret the driving thing, because I feel like my friends (Hannah and Laura in particular) end up driving me everywhere. Well if they're reading this, it is much appreciated. And when I'm rich and famous, I will by you each a Porshe or something! Not that my having passed my test would help without a car of my own!
Anyway, the upside of tomorrow is that I get to wear my nice dress which I haven't had an excuse to wear since May Ball!
