1. I'd choose a sport as I am not as fit as I would like to be
2. I would probably choose number 9 (languages), I would probably have learned Spanish and spent a year or two in Spain or South America learning about the culture and people.
3. Don't need to go back in time...i can do all right now I do not regret the things i have done but those i have yet to do
4. Languages: it's a worldly skill for life - the earlier you start the better.
5. learn to play a musical instrument really well why? for my own enjoyment, I love music
6. I guess I would go for no 8). I like to write, be informed, and express my opinions as well as summarize others'. I would go for journalism or writing! :)
7. I can do them all right now if i wanted - we are as old as we feel :) comprende? ;)
8. Sports please..id love to stay have stayed in shape;-)
9. I wish I had learnt music (play an instrument) I never paid any real attention when I was taught music at school and now I do play an instrument, I find it very hard to learn the reading and playing from written music. It is so much easier to learn when you are young and geared up to it, but we do not have the sense to see how important it will be to us in later life.
10. To be honest I think I would choose most of them but if I have to choose one or two it would be Martial Arts and School I would go back to school and learn more and not give in to the idiots who would pick on you if you bothered with learning because I would more than likely be better off if I had learnt more and done better at school!! Martial Arts because I could kick those idiots arses when they bullied me!!!
11. cooking
12. I always wanted to play the piano but my parents never had the money for lessons when I was small. I put that dream aside in latter years to bring up my family and work, but I would still love to play. I imagine myself knocking 'em dead at parties or taking umpteen encores on stage...the dream goes on!
13. Help Bill Gates develope Microsoft.
14. 8, except I'd write poetry, not peotry. :-p
15. I'd chose learning to play an instrument and writing novels, as they're both two things i've always loved to do.
