Playing the saxophone, I was pretty good at it but quit it because I once missed a baseball practice for a band recital and told my parent never again.

Looking back I could’ve quit band and still practiced playing

Took guitar lessons after school when i was a little younger than 13, probably 10 or 11.. got bored becuase i wanted to play electric guitar and they made me start with an acoustic.. also, they didnt teach us how to play songs, just a lot of theory and warm up exercises.. just like now, i didnt have much patience then, so i quit after a month or 6 weeks.. Went about 30 years before touching a guitar again, then a couple years ago, i taught myself how to play using YouTube videos and Google tutorials.. it wasnt easy, but it wasnt exactly difficult either.. my playing is very rudimentary, i only know three chords, but with three chords you can play thousands of rock and roll songs.

Ironically, this time i taught myself using an acoustic guitar, and i have zero interest in learning to play an electric..

Played racquetball three times a week.
Gave it up because of my knees and ankles.

Wish I would not have quit.

I wanted to be a dinosaur. Kinda grew out of it then went to Med school thinking I could do the doctor thing for a bit then come back to it. Turns out by the time I was ready I completely forgot how to be a dinosaur and it was too late.

Staying in martial arts. I wish I could watch cobra Kai now and go to Applebees and slam back some coors then fight young punks.
