English 4. Unit 2. If only...

This is your opportunity to share a story of regret. Think of a situation, remember that decision you made and he negative consequences you later had to face. Or think about a mistake and the consequences you are still facing at the present time. Make sure you use both structures "if only..." and "I wish..." in your text. This has to be something really worth reading, so think thoroughly.This activity is due February 7th.

When I was a child, I didn't have a good attitud to learn. I didn't pay atention in classes and I really didn't learn everything that I should.
I wish I had heard to my parents, that way I could have understood many things better and easyer when I started this degree.
Now I have to do a bigger effort than the others because some of them did pay atention in highschool; did homework and excersises or simply they went to school every single day.
If only I would had been a farsighted person...

I wish I had regrets, that way I would have a story to tell to my mates in class.
If only I were more adventurous, I would have a better grade …..

Well.. when I was in highschool, I used to fight with my dad for all the things, and, well... I was never be the type of person who apologize. If only I had said what I felt... the things would be differents.

And now, when I can see all with another perspective, I regret for not having apologized in that moment, because it's too late.
For six years I was angry with my dad until God took him, and I was never had the opportunity to tell you how much I love him.
I really wish to turn back time, but I can't.

On my first semester of economics, I got troubles adapting to a diffrent level form highschool to a mayor. So I didnt studied much for the exams that cause me to have calculus and C.O.E on third oportunity. The consequence was having an extra subject from the second sementer on my foruth semester. If only I werent so lazy on my first semester I would have more time on my fourth semester.

When I finished high school I took a trip, in spite that I learned many things on the trip, I lost a year for study a degree. That year I worked at Teleperformance and on next year I started my studies at school of economics.
If only I hadn´t taken that trip, I would almost finish my studies.

The first semester in college was too difficult to me, because I didn´t know how to organize my time and I couldn´t do the things that I love the most. I wish I had had more time to practice jazz, I really missed it!. In second semester I tried to be organized and the result was good; I could go to my rehearsals and my grades were going well. If only I had done that before,things in first semester had been different.

I really regret about last saturaday...because that day, I was waiting for the bus to go to my home, and a man was selling some handycrafts, when I saw that the other people didn't buy anything, I felt a little embarrassed about buy a handycraft... after that, I saw the man walking away and I felt very sad because the weather was so cold =(.
If I only had bought some handycrafts, I'd not have this regret, but I didn't do that and now I have lots of remorse...
I wish that man could find a better work!

If I only met with him again... =/

Last Friday, I went to my teacher’s cubicle to review my exam and my grade was not so bad, but I could have gotten a better grade If only I had written a correct verb twice. I wish I had focused more my mind in the exam. Well that’s in the past so, I have to study more and take care about some things, I wish I got a better grade next exam.
