Thanks so much, Laura, for making me BOTW!!
I am going to keep these G-rated, since I'd like everyone to be able to answer.
So....I've been listening to this song about regrets, so I thought I'd ask a question about that. However, I didn't want to be a total downer, so this is a two part question:

***What is something that you're really proud of that you've done in your life? What is something that you regret?***

One thing I am really proud of is how I've been able to learn to speak Spanish. Growing up in a non-bilingual family, I always envied people who were able to communicate in other languages, so I was really excited when I got proficient and then fluent in Spanish.

The thing I regret is so ridiculous, and 13 years later I should realize that this really didn't make any difference in the scheme of things. Anyway, when I was 11 years old, starting seventh grade, we were starting to switch classes for the first time (instead of staying in one room with one teacher all day). A few weeks into school, I asked my best friend if she wanted to exchange schedules so we could find each other during the day. She gave me this really strange look like I was stalking her and rolled her eyes. Within a month our friendship was over. Granted, I don't think our friendship was going to last anyway, but for years I was convinced that was the reason, and looking back I still get red thinking about that situation.

(This is NOT my biggest regret...but with bigger ones, it's hard to say, because they led to so many other things that I can't necessarily say that I wish they didn't happen, because I don't know where I'd be now if they didn't....you know? So if you think of something that could be a big regret, but you don't regret it b/c it ended up leading to lots of good...pick something smaller.
