(51,572 posts)6. Yup. The only thing I regret from my youth is not doing MORE of the stuff I wasn't supposed to do!

(54,405 posts)7. Reminds me of my younger daughter in college and law school
She did very well in both, graduated magna from both. I asked her straight out if she was disappointed she never made summa. She said, "oh hell, no. If I had gone for that, I would never have had time to party!"
She DID party. The few who graduated summa cum laude from her law school are now in intensive, dull academic-style jobs. She has a fabulous job that takes her all over Europe, North America, and even South America, and pays her an unbelievable fortune (for our standards, anyway) to do it. And she STILL takes time to party.
