Never say Never - Your Turn
 

Ok, this is a thread about things we all swore we'd never do... but ended up doing. SO wat did you swear you'd never do?


I'll start.

1). I swore I'd never own or wear a pair of cowboy boots.

I now own 4 pair. 1 pair Redwings, 2 pair Justins and a pair of ostrich skin.

I didnt want to 'casue I thought itd mean I was a hick. I got to college and saw that everyone wore boots down here, the were the 'classy' thing to wear (khakis and a pair of redwings)and It didnt mean I was a hick.

2) I swore I'd never own a truck.
Ithen realized how functional they are and how much cheaper than an SUV they are.

3) I swore I'd never have another long distance relationship.

Looks like I am in another one.

Swore I'd never like hip-hop/rap... now there's a few songs I'm into...

Swore I'd never stop playing bass guitar...
I've been cheaing on my lower-end instrument, been playing mostly regular guitar for over a year now.

Swore I'd never join a fraternity...
I think you could probably guess who that turned out...
(I know there's probably a lot of people on here with that one, so I just HAD to beat 'em to it!)

Swore I'd never join a sorority after the first incident *ick*
--Oye..now look at me... :o

Swore I'd never date a guy that was in Art
--Going to get married to an artist... :p

I'll add more once I think of some..lol

I said I would never join a sorority. Iit was one of the best things I ever did, and it was totally worth it. I met my best friend and have a lifetime of sisterhood. :)

I swore I wasnt going to work at the Gap this summer. It turns out that I am, but only weekends.

oh geez what i said i'd never do:

join a sorority ... uh right.
have another boyfriend ...
have another ex-boyfriend ...
live in the city i was born and raised in... i'm still here
move back home ... well if that cohabitation thing had lasted...

I swore I'd never...
 

... join a sorority. (I am super-Kappa.)

... have sex before marriage. (I didn't lose my virginity; I know exactly where I left it.)

... play a sport. (So sayeth LU's Varsity Fencing Rookie of the Year, 1999-2000.)

... get a tattoo. (Famous last words.)

... pierce anything other than my ears. (Got my nose done in January.)

Once I swore like when I was 14 that I'd never join a fraternity. ;)
Who was I then? Who the hell am I? Wham, Bam, thank you, ma'am. I'm a Theta Chi.

Swore I'd never....

...go to Florida State (this at the age of 13 b/c I thought they had an annoying fight song)

...join a sorority

...have another long distance relationship (you can't help who you fall in love with though)

...move to Birmingham

...live with a guy (not dating him obviously but STILL...and it's not bad at all!)

...go back to grad school (starting in 2 weeks)

I swore...
I would never color my hair (I have nearly a dozen times)
A 1000 times I'd never go to a tanning bed. (Thankfully I've quit)
I would never wear low rise jeans.
I'd never do anything sexual before marriage
I would never chop my hair
I would never attend a public university
I would never have a gpa below 3.8. ha. ha ha ha ha

I am usually a believer in "never say never" because circumstances and times change so suddenly and some values (like what to do w/ your appearance) change. But the tanning bed thing was definitely a mistake! (I have white splotchy sun spots now!!! ARgh!)

i swore i would never....

1) have sex before marriage ( i did)
2) have sex again after the first time (i did)
3) fail a college course (i did)
4) own a country cd (i have one)

When I was dating my husband, I told him something along the lines of, "I just want you to know that I have a great career and I can't see myself ever wanting to have children or if I d, have them, staying home with them."

...which is exactly what I do now!


I swore I'd never own a station wagon and mocked those who did.

I have a station wagon (but it's not wood paneled. I DO have SOME taste still!)


1989 Tracy said, "I'm going to live in New York City forever, I can't imagine living in the suburbs"

2003 Tracy says, "Yep, I live in the burbs. I have a lawn mower and everything!"

I swore i'd never get married but i have kept to that one pretty well.

i swore i would never:

fall for someone i went to high school with....oops did that a year ago and i still cna't think about anyone else although i've tried

have a long distance relationship....it certainly seems as if i'm headed that way

drink while i was underage....well that went out the window my first weekend at college

never become a teacher....too bad that's my major

cry about someone i cared about....well kinda didn't follow that one either

I always said I didn't want to be in a sorority (I'm a PROUD Delta Gamma)!!

I never wanted a tattoo (now I'm thinking about one!)
