"Journal" (Class Question)

What is your biggest mistake in life so far? What do you wish you had done differently? Okay, so I have half a journal filled with answers to this question, but here's what I wrote on December 7th as my first response to it. "One of my biggest mistakes in life so far was not focusing 100% on college instead of focusing so much on my boyfriend. I wish I didn't spend all my savings on going to Jamaica when I could have used it for a scooter or a new bicycle. A mistake that I regret is not cleaning my room and organizing and cleaning out the garage when I had opportunity to do so. Also, I didn't fight hard enough to repeat my junior year of high school, which was a depressive-sad-black-hole time that I awakened from eventually. I don't know how I could have done it, but I needed to get people on my side to fight for me... Another regret I have is not getting help or seeking therapy after my dad died. I thought we were too poor and I didn't know how to access information about services.
