I thought of being a vet also. I worked for one when I was 14. The doctor invited me in to the surgery to watch him spay a cat. I thought to myself ''If this cat was awake, that would really hurt". Next thing I knew, I woke up to meet my Native American co-worker! lol Ooops!

no i start to plan it and spend months planning it and ironing out the plot and getting out the plotholes and designing the characters and writing their personality and finding names that actually fit the time that the book is set in and write the lore for the universe in that book and then never actually write the book itself
kasei10 3 years ago
This works for some people, but I've found too much planning can be bad myself. Basic outline, one sentence for each character, basics of the world background (including technology as mines is sci-fi) then just started writing. If you plan too much ahead, you can end up writing yourself into a corner because you've already decided how things HAVE to be. I ended up with a character dying because that's the way the story went and needed, not because I planned it ahead. I actually got upset that I had no reasonable way to save him. Point was, have a general idea of how you want it to go and where you want to end up, but keep it loose and flexible so you can change things as needed.

Do it. I've wanted to write since I was a kid, but it was only after finishing University I realised that it wasn't actually that much writing in the scheme of things. I took the plunge last year, writing as an when I could, just finishing the last chapter of my first draft now. The thought of editing is scary, but I've got this far so YOLO.

Hey, don't think like that. So many artists don't like their own work, yet others find it amazing. I'm sick to the teeth of my own attempt at novel writing, but a friend finds it a compelling story and kept badgering me to finish, so I'm just finishing up my last chapter now (150k words thereabouts). Whether anyone else finds it good, we'll see. But I got the entire story out of my head and at least one person found it interesting.

My husband did some work in Ukraine about 5 years ago, and made some friends there. They encouraged me to come back with him on one of the trips and would provide me a driver/translator for sightseeing during the day. I declined twice because it was an inconvenient time. Now I believe I will never see Ukraine in its true glory.

Planned since the beginning of the pandemic to go on an extended tour around eastern Europe the first spring or summer everything is completely open/global travel is easy again.

As you get older you realize that you regret more of the things you didn't do than the things you did. I wish I'd been a little more brave. My brother was a drug addict and it was a nightmare growing up, so I always wanted to be the 'good' kid. And so I was always trying to not get into trouble, which caused me to not take any risks. I ended up struggling a lot with pushing myself to do what I wanted, not what I thought I should do or what the most responsible thing was. I always took the safe route and while, yes, sometimes I think it was the best decision to do so, I often wish I'd spent some money to have fun instead of saving it. I wish I'd gone to that party or gone to see that concert even though I was by myself because I really wanted to. I wish I'd done something a little dangerous to have a good story. I only recently, in my forties, started feeling like I was living my life a little more and stopped caring as much if I was being responsible. I've been travelling a little bit and doing things I've never tried before. I wish I'd done it when I had more energy and could truly enjoy it.

Susie Elle 3 years ago
That's too bad, OP, and I'm sorry that's how things were for you growing up. However, the need to experience things in the way you would have if you'd been someone else is a desire that simply cannot be fulfilled because it's a situation that can't exist ('someone else' can be a different person or a past version of yourself). Instead, try to identify what it is that would make you happy right now, in this moment. Having fun is not reserved only for the young :) I wonder; how does having more or less energy keep you from truly enjoying things?
Kate Jones (Submission author) 3 years ago
Because the things I'd like to do require more energy. I get tired a lot quicker now than when I was 20, lol. I'm having a lot more fun now doing things that I like to do *now*, but in terms of the topic of regrets, I wish I'd done more active and wild stuff when I was younger. I don't honestly have interest in doing some things now because I'm just older and I'm not interested in partying or getting a crazy tattoo or going bar hopping until 2am. I wish I'd had that experience when I was younger, though. As an example, i've never been to a college party. When I was in school I worked full time so if I wasn't in class I was generally working. I wish I'd taken a night off and gone to a party and gotten drunk and made out with some guy and just had a wild, fun time so I could look back now and laugh and remember fondly. Just stuff like that.

I have technically done this, but not completely. See, I am a foster child because mum's mental health was not good and my dad's skitsophrenia acted up and he was semi-abusive to my mum but not us. I have no memory of him. When I turned 14 I was finally allowed to see him because his mental health was better but because of COVID I couldn't. When restrictions were relaxed I was excited to meet him. I couldn't because he died when I was doing my prelims. I now have no memories with him.

I am so sorry that you are dealing with this. Death of a parent under any circumstance is never easy, but your father's death is even more tragic. Are there any family members that can tell you about the good times in his life? I know it isn't the same, but maybe it would help. If at all possible, I would suggest that you go to a support group or counseling. Being a teenager is hard enough without losing a parent in more ways than one. I wish I could reach through the screen a just hug you, and know that there are many people here who will support you. I hope that you have supportive family or friends to help you. Or, just pop on here and track me down. I will always listen.

for years i had planned that when i could i would take a trip to shikoku, japan and walk the path of the 88 temples. not take a bus but walk the path. i understood this would take around 3 months but that was okay with me. then, i was diagnosed with a degenerative bone disease and that this would impede my mobility. but, still i thought that i could do it and it would just take a little longer. as things happen, this disease has progressed faster than i anticipated. the thought of having issues overseas during this kind of trek concerned me so i thought maybe the appalachian trail. it would require a trek and take me through areas of our own history. apparently, my body has other plans as this crap is progressing faster. so far, have replaced a hip and am looking forward to replacing both knees in the next several months. [sigh..] on the positive side, at least i can return to the caribbean to scuba and attempt to get my deep dive certification. hell, at this time i would just appreicate floating in the ocean blue since water sports is the one thing that doesn't cause pain.

Not get rich or anything, but just be able to do what I love and live comfortably. I keep telling myself, "maybe one day". I always have these crazy ideas though.

When I was in grade 5 I was interested in astronomy and turned out to be very good at it, as in so advanced my teacher/slash astronomy club educator had to scramble to find stuff to keep me from getting bored. He had connections in the astronomy community, but we moved, so he never had a chance to introduce me to people who could have taken my life in that direction. But, I have never lost my fascination with any of it and it has expanded into so many different areas. I would like to have gone back to school to learn architectural design to help design hospitals and units within the hospital that work, for the nurses and patients. So many architects and designers don't understand how things work in there, and so we walk into a totally completed project that we know is not going to work. My real dream could still happen. Because of covid they have put the program on hold. At the Addison Airport in TX, at the museum they have different historic planes that still fly.

Anyway, I secretly wrote raps my whole life and I never shared this with people until older. In my thirties, I found a singing karaoke app and started playing around with writing my own lyrics to pre-made beats and feel like I’m not too bad and there could have been some potential there.. lol oh well, I wrote rap songs for my daughter and her friends as they were growing up and that was a lot of fun and great memories attached to those days, so I’ll always have that to look back on. That’s way better than fortune and fame anyway, right? So why am I even writing this?

Sorry, but the question is ambiguous. I.E. Let's say, that I wanted to throw a chipmunk into a fire, but I never did. However, I still could?

If you wish to throw a chipmunk into a fire, I suggest you get counseling

It was obviously a flippant and hyperbolic example. If you take everything at face value then you need to lighten up.

I was throwing in a hypothetical question. I love animals. I also meant to drop a brick into a river, never did, however I still could?

This doesn't really matter for the question though, you can answer it whether you can still do the thing or not... If you currently regret not doing something (yet) then it's still relevant.

The first sign, really? Like, before anything else? Source please. Also, did you read the submission regretting killing a teacher? They may not even like fire, but I'd say it's a bigger sign of delusion and violence.

Your father is wrong. YOU are not the reason for anything in his life. YOU are not responsible for any problem a grown man has in his life. I wish I could reach out & hug you. XOXO

Go back to taking dance classes. It's just not the same when you know you'll never actually dance on stage in a production because they want young dancers. I'll have to take adult classes for "hEaLtH rEaSoNs". That just sounds gruelling and redundant when you want to go somewhere with it. I'm nearing 40, not in the best shape with my lower half and I was never able to get a good turn out, nor had the flexibility dance companies are looking for. Although I was always told my arm movements were beautiful and I had a good timing with the music. Still, we moved around too much and I never got past the 2nd Grade of ballet. I really wanted to get to pointe classes. I guess it's a good thing I missed that stage from what I've been hearing what it does to your feet and body.
