What if you could turn back time?

#1
Over a long period, where would you go, what events would you like to witness, who would you like to meet?

And on a short period, lets say you could live your life again, would you make different choices, avoid certain people, make certain things differently?

One of the first things that come to my mind is being there when the damn pyramids were built, when and where were they really done...and witness the death of Jesus Christ. I'd also like to meet Nostradamus. Million other things come to my mind but they are probably the three first things I would do.

On a short period of time I sometimes wonder what if I had chosen a totally different field of study, and I think there is a couple of my past friends I would have never met if I knew how much fake they were. There's that girl I wonder what would have happened if I had never loved her. I also wish I would have been a 2pac fan before the age of 14 so I could have met him even as a dumbass kid.:p That's also a good question, what if I had never started listening to 2pac's music, I would have been a totally different person I think.

So what about y'all

Well to witness history i probably would go back to the times of Socrates, Plato and Aristotle just to get some wisdom. This is assuming the time machine will also teach me the language.
Also i won't mind going to the times of Davinci, Michaelangelo and Raphael. Also i'd like to see Salvador Dali in action at the time he was at his peak with surrealist paintings... oooh and to see Gaudi at work.

In my own life, i have no regrets. My mistakes have all been a lesson and though there have been heaps of things that i wish i didn't do at the time... in the long run it has made me who i am. So i wouldn't change anything. If i could see myself in a parallell universe by different decisions then by all means i'd have a peak.

I would go back and buy loads of copies of pacs singles when they came out to sell these days ;-)
But I would love to go back to the time when I was playing youth football (soccer) and had my yts, 1 just to experience it all again and I think that how I am now and the things I know now I would have a better chance of turning pro,
Also I would go back to the time when my friends cousin died and stop him falling through the window that got him killed. Theres also someone that I would not have become friends with like the dan said,
And finally I would go back packing a magnum and shoot the 9/11 terrorists, the london bombers, the bali bombers, the spain bombers and any other terrorists that I could think of, before they carried out their acts,

I'd kinda like to go back to England in like 18th century or something... live a Jane Austen kinda life... rely on inheritances and have maids. Find myself a Mr.Darcy and live it up. :rolleyes:

I think what if I turned back in time and didnt try at high school, never went to uni and instead bummed around. There are things now I wouldnt ever want to give up, but sometimes I wish I had been more lazy... in times of stress I think, damn if only I didnt care! lol.

short period of time I woulda changed the last 5 years, decisions I made, people I met, situations I could have avoided.

long term I would wanna be in the renaissance period it has always interested me for some reason. I think there and the 70's maybe.

I dont think i would. The path i have walked made me who i was, i met some good and bad people, but overall i wouldnt change my life, because i wouldnt want to be something that i am not.

you can't look back you can only look forward
if i went back and changed everything i would be a different person and right now i think i'm great person and i've learned alot...without the experiences i've had i wouldn't be as wise as i am

so no i wouldn't turn back time

you didn't learn that all men are like that you learned that he was...don't let him ruin your chances at happiness...as you know i was in a pretty bad relationship but now i have a great man all you have to do is believe that there are great men out there, they are not all ass-holes
