The mind!
I'm often ashamed of how poorly I've developed my brain.
I'm not going to blame myself for how little I learned in school since it's reasonable (or at least excusable) to expect the system to do an effective job of teaching.

In the few years that I've been out of school, I've learned so little.

I know I'm a smart kid. The problem is that I've never really taken it upon myself to take advantage of that. There are always opportunities to learn, regardless of how trivial the knowledge may seem... it frustrates me that I've been so lazy.

This noggin' needs some substance.

I've been really enjoying myself in Montreal. I've missed my friends and it still hasn't sunk in that I'm not only here on a visit.
Whenever I've come to visit in the past, it's been a struggle to fit in as much activity with as many people as possible into a limited time. The fact that I'm here indefinitely hasn't really changed that.
I've been having a lot of fun :).

It's been fantastic having you. I'm glad you're enjoying it.

Surely you've learned throughout the passed few years. You've always little tid-bits of information to share with us. I think you're being too naive about how much you pick up on a daily basis. That, of course, does not dismiss you from putting effort in to learn even more.

You've also gained much experience since you left school which has developed your wisdom and changed your ways of living. That is nothing to scoff at.
