Didn't have a drink till I was 21  . Yeah - I was (and still am) way too reserved
That behavior continues to bite me in the ass ... I wish I was better at dating. The real world is a hellhole environment. Maybe I ought to drive my BMW more ... I kid.
tl;dr, have fun when you can and stop worrying.

Just my two cents, but most kids from my Highschool who "lived the moment" and didnt focus on college or the future... didn't have one.
Aside from that, spending time with family more for sure. When you lose them, you can never get them back. You can make friends, best friends, girl friends, wives, etc, but you can't ever have that "blood-connection" with another person. That level of connection is something I miss (a lot).
