I bought a Sector 9 longboard today, and I am in love with it.
It kinda sucks that high school's over with. If I was then who I am now, I would've enjoyed 14-18 a helluva lot more. If I could relive high school and change it all, I would. I would've been less judgmental, less straightedge, and more active, both physically and mentally.
I don't necessarily regret my high school years, I just wish people like Megan Sexton and Joshua Iappuchino could see me now. I wish I would've gotten into skating when they did, and I wish I would've gotten into smoking when they did cause... I guess it feels a little like I wasted my opportunity to be something, somebody more than what I'd come to be by the end of high school.
I'm not disappointed in myself; I'm usually pretty happy with my evolution, it's just... today, while I was making friends with my board, I was thinking about all the times I could've been hanging out with people that I stuck my nose up to, and I DO regret being so bitchy. I'm thankful I've mellowed out.
This probably doesn't make a whole lotta sense, but I don't know how else to put it. I think I just wish everybody I knew then could know me now.
