- Epilogue - If I Could Live My Life All Over Again, I Would . . . |
|
There is not much that I would like to change about my life, mostly because I don't know the result of the changes. A fundamental change I might make would be being more social, which could have many unknown repercussions. Being more social would have caused me to have more friends. Having more friends would mean I would be involved in many more activities so I could be with my friends. Being involved in more activities would mean I would have less time to myself. Having less personal time might have caused me not to be able to learn the computer like I have, and this could have led me to wanting to have a different career when I got to deciding on it. Being more social would have caused me to have more friends. Having more friends would mean that I would be involved in more activities and I would gain even more friends. Out of all these friends I would have, many must be females, and maybe some of these females would have gone out with me. All this would have led to a very different me. All this being more social and stuff would have allowed me to have more opportunities because of the many people that I would know. I may have been able to get a better job than the one I have now at Wally's World. I would also have been able to get various other perks that come with knowing the right people. I should have been more of the rebellious kid that my mom expected me to be, like James and Marie. She expects me to be a bad kid, so she picks out the smallest flaw, and complains about it. She also wants control over what I see and do, like I have no mind of my own to decide what I think is best for me. The fatal flaw of attempting this rebellious act though, is that Dad owns the van I drive, and before I drove, they gave rides to wherever I went-I didn't go many places then nor do I now. I would actually like to move out after I graduate, but I don't have enough money for renting or for a dorm room, let alone getting a car and paying for its gas. After I graduate, though, I should be more free to do what I please without needing parental consent go to wherever I want. I'll need to get a car though, so I'm not tied down to the van. I think I like my life enough the way it is so that I would not want to change it in any drastic measures. My life has been good enough in spite of all the non-liveliness of it. I'm sure my future will hold more for me. |
