My Greatest RegretsWhen I was still quite young, I was offered the chance to spend several weeks in the South of France. My Uncle was going to drive me down in his vintage MG sports car. There would be sun, sand and, crucially, French girls.
I was too scared of the French girls to go.
What do you regret not doing?

Je ne regrette de rien? Bollocks.1) A party in which I earnt myself an infamous name which will immediately identify me to anyone that reads this post, so we'll leave that unknown. I was blind drunk & repeatedly swore/screeched at a boy who was nothing but nasty to me throughout sixth form - 'cunt,' I believe was my word of choice. It was certainly an eye opener for the host's gentle & borderline middle class family.
2) Months later, getting stoned & sleeping with the 'cunt.' Urgh. Not only was it the worst night of my life I couldn't look his girlf in the eye for weeks; she was in my class.
3) Not revising history for my Cambridge interview to read English & thus getting rejected. Later, not revising Vietnam for history & getting a C instead of the A I would've got with even minimal application.
4)Writing an application for me & my lazy ass reluctant friend to go to art college. Guess who got in? I'll give you a clue - it wasnt me.
5)Wasting the last year of my college education sulking over Cambridge/art college. I had so much potential & pissed it all away.
And this isnt even the tip of the iceberg.
