9 / 10 years old. So I can tell my best friend how much she meant to me. She died a few years later of cancer. Also to cuddle with my cat Gypsy because I never got to say goodbye before she passed from old age on my 14th birthday.

    I would re-visit my High school days, knowing what I know now of course, and would have not been so damn shy for risks!!

    I'd go back to my freshmen year and do things I didn't know until my senior year.
    & I'd also not get with my ex lol :laugh:

    1982. If coach would've put me in fourth quarter, we'd have been state champions, no doubt.

    Can you throw a football over them mountains, too? :happy:


    I'd go back to 5th grade. I had a great teacher who did more for my sense of self-worth than probably anyone has in my life. She was amazing.

    Although high school itself was great, I'd like the revisit the first 12 years of my life when I lived with my grandparents.

    I think there are several good ones above me. Mine would be when I was around 14. I would just do things differently in life at a earlier age. Like attend college, join the military, etc. If I could hold the knowledge from today wow make $ in the stock market, .....yeah..

    I vividly remember the end of 4th grade, on the playground us girls chasing the boys ~ attraction just budding and so exciting. And I thought to myself "this is the happiest time of my life, I want to remember always that *this* is a great age".

    And that still rings true ~ I'd say for me 9 years old was a wonderful age ~ carefree and sweet.

    Thank you for the thought-provoking question, when so many are...not. I have to stand with the people who say they would not like to go back at all. Sounds even worse the second time!

    I'd like to go back to 16 and tell my crush how I felt. I'll never know (and I also wished I took him to my formal, but instead I was forced by my mother to take a friend) if something could've happened. I'd be a hell of a lot less scared in talking to guys now if I had known then if there was a chance.

    Junior high. I cared so much about what others thought about me and tried so hard to fit in instead of just being myself.
