Wish I had learned how to or wish I had done:

Played football in highschool
Learned to play guitar
Operate heavy machinery
Work on diesel engines
Car electrical
Weatherproofing a house
Weld
Joined the military
Learned Spanish
Talk to people my age (awkward around 19 year olds but somehow I manage to be comfortable around 40 year olds, fucking sucks)
Concentrate on a task that sucks
Make myself go to sleep
Left PA and went to Wyoming or Idaho

Off the top of my head

Yeah if we're doing "wish I had done" as well I'd definitely say I wish I had joined the military after high school.

Not a whole lot of things I wish I learned that I haven't or can't learn. Actually, I should have learned more advanced science and math in high school. Then I could be an engineering or computer science major -_-

Wish I'd stayed in the Army.

I would've had 20 years in as of mid August 2011.

also wish I had learned guitar or bass at a much younger age. It seems like every successful band is composed of people who were shredding at age 8.

I learned how to whistle as a kid, and then getting braces robbed me of the ability...I never could re-learn how to. Seems dumb but it's bothered me ever since.

Oh, and whatever the fuck Euler's number actually means. Every time I wonder and begin to read a definition I start to go slightly crosseyed. I had a calc teacher that did a good job explaining it back in the day, but I've forgotten and now can't seem to "get" it.

...so randum...

my private school was the most cliquish thing I've ever experienced. there was almost nobody in my grade who had similar interests as me, it just fucking sucked. I hated it and sometimes it's a wonder I didn't kill myself because I sure wanted to many times. Whereas (from talking to people who went to them) the big public high schools in my area were a much more different environment. And a lot of them are also excellent academically-speaking... I still wonder why my parents spent all that money when some of the best public schools in the nation are in the DC area.
