Decisions you have regretted

I think it might be funny if we started a thread based on things that 'seamed like a good idea at the time', have a few laugh's as each others silliness, that sort of thing. The more humorous the better.

Ill say something that happened yesterday just to get us started. my good friend and i was hoping to spend schoolies with a moderate level of partying. anyway we decided to go with a group of people to Apollo bay. So we committed and gave money, and then only last night we realized that our week really consists of us going to the middle of nowhere, with a bunch of standard 'Good' type people who were really interested in just relaxing. Looks like the party's just me, my friend and slabs of alcohol on a random beach. Aw well. Seamed like a good idea at the time.

I'll be honest and say that I regret taking physics as well.

It is just so .... I don't know. I LOVE Unit 4 Chemistry but with Physics, it just feels like I'm not getting the .... bigger picture? :S

I guess I enjoyed Unit 3 with Motion/Electricity and in Unit 4, I don't see too much of a correlation between units. (My opinion, don't bash me xD).

I would've done a language, or Economics/Accounting. :(

Oh well.

Ok, on another non-academic (if one calls VCE physics "academic") note, I wish I hadn't stopped playing cricket for VCE. Now I'm really crap :(

Yeah I wish I'd taken uni Chemistry - I hadn't realised that I would actually like chemistry and could potentially do as well in it as I am this year. Oh well. Will prolly end up taking it for breadth at uni, but I could have potentially skipped Chem 1 & 2 and gone on to more advanced things in my first year at uni.

Mistakes I made:

German. Good subject, but was a killer workload-wise.
Facebook. Bloody addicted to it now.
Considered going to Melbourne. That was a waste of energy, Monash all the way! JKS JKS!
Not gotten that girl's number last week...
