You have just been given the chance to re-live 1 day of your life to change the course of that day, and therefore effect your life.

(please do not go into the butterfly effect theory, only the big things will change.)
what day do you choose?
is it for personal gain or for the good of humanity?

keep it realistic!!!

if you respond once you cannot change your answer (but you may still respond to other posts, be respectful)

the questions!

what day do you choose, what would you do and why?

mine would be the day my grandpa died.... the day before my birthday. he had a heart attack and I would be able to atleast try and prevent it by making sure an ambulance was there before it happened.
the reason is because, my grandma wouldnt get remarried, I wouldnt of had to move and have to go to that F***IN school (triad AKA hell) and it would save my whole fammily alot of grief!

the day my uncle got into a car accident. i would try to contact him to keep him from driving that night. what happened was he was driving his truck and was apparently hit by a peice of farm equipment. he was flung out of his truck which then rolled over on top of him. he went into a coma. we kept him on life support until we could nolonger afford to keep him alive.

I don't really have a point in my life I'd do differently. That's a far-off statement from saying my life was perfect, or even within light years of being so, but I can't recall any specific day which greatly affected any point in my life. At least none I'd do differently, all my big changes I've had I'm fine with.

You beat me to it, :P

If I had the opportunity to change something, I wouldn't change anything life-altering. I love who I've turned into over the years, and I have all of my experiences to thank for that. If some of the bad things that have happened to me hadn't, I'd be somebody else.

And besides, there's no sense dwelling on the "what-ifs."

So if I had to change anything, I'd change yesterday so that I went to the Coldstone Grill rather than El Mezcal to eat. :)

I am tempted to stop the assassination of archduke Ferdinand, but WWII taught us that prejudice is bad. Really, really bad.

Hmmm...I can go with one of two days, one being purely selfish and one being purely selfless.

First, some background is needed for both days.

For those who don't know or just didn't give a [censored] (most of you), I have feelings for the person who has been my closest friend since third grade. To make it all stranger for this person, we're both male, and he's (supposedly) straight, AND he didn't know I was bisexual at the time. If I could, I would go back to the day I came out and told him both of these things (that I'm bi, and it was his doing) so that I could have said it with a little more confidence, and hopefully gotten the whole message across. Also, if we're allowed to do this in these scenarios, I would have changed his reaction (I'm not allowed to go into detail here about what Id change it to, but I think you could guess :wink: :D~ )

That was the selfish one, but the other is the more likely one.

I have a younger half-sister. We share a father, but her mother is the devil incarnate. Just picture the most evil thing imaginable, and make it fat, lazy, and female (I think...) (seriously, I don't think I've ever genuinely hated anything more than this woman. It'll be pretty obvious why in a few seconds). On her mother's side, my sister has a half brother. He had some emotional issues, and some mental defect of some kind that no one really tried to diagnose, let alone treat. Well, to make a long story short, he molested my sister...repeatedly. Apparently, it wasn't just Mary, either. There were, I believe, five other girls involved. I'm not sure what happened to him (but he'd better damn well pray that he never comes into contact with me ever again...), but all of these crimes were committed while under his mother's supervision. And then, even with all of the evidence against Cody, she STILL tried to point her fat, stubby little finger at ME and MY BROTHER! TO DEFEND THE PERSON WHO MOLESTED HER DAUGHTER!!!!! (I've not been allowed to see her since learning of this, because my father has a pretty good idea what will happen, and he knows he wouldn't be able to bring himself to stop me) Cody's guilt was undeniable, but then there was the issue of Mary, at the time, being in custody of Gwen (demon woman). To give you an idea how stupid and unfit-to-be-a-parent this woman is, she lied to the judge ABOUT WHERE SHE LIVED! RIGHT TO HIS FACE!!!! WHEN HE HAD THE RECORDS RIGHT IN FRONT OF HIM!!!!!!!! Naturally, my father took her to court for full custody of my sister. There was a MOUNTAIN (literally) of reasons why Gwen shouldn't have unsupervised visitation. The battle in court went on for a good month, and we had pretty much won, but then it all went wrong. The judge brought in to make the final decision was not only completely biased in favor of Pond Scum, but he hadn't even READ any of the papers outlining the conditions Gwen lived in, or what happened with Cody! The result was, obviously, we lost. And now we have to fear for my little sister's safety every single weekend. If I could, I would go back and changed anything I had to, including killing the judge if necessary, to change that outcome.

Well...you asked... :roll:



Good. We wouldn't have you any other way :wink:

Hmm... I have a few things I want to change, but they're spread out over years. I couldn't change one day and "poof" fixed.

But... One day... I'd go back and change the classes I registered for this semester. I can't take half of 'em anymore.

The day my parents found out I was gay. I'd make sure to leave no evidence bringing that subject up so they wouldn't find out until I was actually ready to tell them. Because that pretty much ranks up there as the worst night of my life.

I would want to go back to the first day of freshman year....as long as i can stay there and start over from there. I would try to get the 3.5 my parents wanted so i would not have been pulled and put in home schooling T_T i haaaaaaaate it.

It's funny, I was just thinking about this the other day...

I can't really say that I'd change anything about one specific day. I'd happily have my mind sent back in time to first grade, and live my life from there (with all the stuffers that I know today), but that's kind of breaking the rules, so I won't go into that. Eek, what a pointless post...

Ouch, man, sorry to hear that. Something like that is definitely best if you have time to prepare...

Hmm, I'm not a particularly interesting person so I guess the best I can come with is the day I decided to take my friend home from school (we were both in highschool) got in a wreck and gave him a gash and the person in the other car broke their leg.

I'd probably take a different street...

Ah jeez I hate those kinds of incidents. The ones that your friends can always use against you.

"Hey man can you sport me five bucks for some McDonalds? I left my wallet at home."

"No. Eat when you get home."

"Hey remember that time you gashed me wide open because of your awesome driving skills?"

It happens, My mom found out due to someone posting something about it on their myspace. Of course as all conservative parents go, she kicked me out, refused to let me speak to my siblings( said she didnt want me having an "influence" on them as if I am contagious or something), and even sent suicidal overtone emails about how sad this made her and where she screwed up ect ect... and the sad thing is I am only bi.... Imagine if I were full out and out gay?

needless to say I dont get along with my parents :roll:
