June 2013
I’ve messed up a lot in the last couple of days. Driving, getting caught at school, and not only letting down my family and friends. Right now I am full of sadness, regret and nothing but fault for what happened. I was unable to walk with my class. I was unable to watch my friends walk down, or throw their caps up into the air. I had 15 friends and family that had tickets to my graduation at the Comcast arena that were unable to attend. Numerous people still came to my graduation party. People said don’t worry about it, things happen, you just need to learn from your mistakes. I received close to two grand, not counting gift cards and the new lap top I got from my parents for college in the fall. I do not deserve one penny that anyone has gave to me in honor of my graduation.
It is so sad and embarrassing that the decisions I made on the night before and during the last day of my senior year, could have such a huge impact on my life. My last twelve years of school were nothing but hard work, hardly graduating because of grades and stress. All was reflected on me and my terrible decisions.
I feel terrible for my sister, that has looked up to me since she was born. Seeing her cry and say she hated me was just as bad, if not worse than not being able to walk. I feel even worse for my best friend, Emily that was so sad and hurt by my decisions. She was so scared for me.
No one deserves to suffer from my life.
My blog is called “Life’s too short, don’t take it too seriously.”
But from my recent experiences, please take it seriously. Because your future can change very, very fast,
Please be careful. Please learn from me. Please know that your actions do not hurt only you.
