Life Changing Events The worst feeling you can ever feel is when your parents are disappointed in you. I got kicked out of school my sophomore year and my parents were not happy with me. My mom was so fed up with my behavior she sent me away with my dad, it changed my whole way of living, and I learned so much from it. When my mom finally got the news I wasn’t in school anymore she lost it. My mother begged me to change my ways before something bad happened. I thought that I was never going to get in trouble or get caught doing all the horrible things I used to do. After getting kicked out and let back into school I was on my last strike. I wanted to party all the time and couldn't miss out on anything my friends and I were doing. Me knowing i'm on my last strike with school, decided to skip school and I thought I was going to get away with it but I was wrong. The next day of school I was called out of school to be notified that I got kicked out of school for good all because I wanted to skip with friends. when they called home my mother told me that i had to live with my dad because she didn't know what else would keep me out of trouble.

I complained to mother every day about her being so impulsive and leaving without consulting any of us about it first; and how now my life will be forever ruined because there was no possible way I could make all new friends in such a short time. I texted my dad asking to take us back and how mom is never home, always working, and there's never even anything to eat. He always told me that he was working on it. My mother was way ahead of me as she had always been in trying to make the move more conducive for us. I got enrolled into a Youth Center where numerous children from the surrounding schools went to mingle: somewhat of a teen club. In those prime years, bullying runs rapid. I still remember on my first day being dropped off, hearing the car door slam shut, and how my feet grew heavy carrying them to the door. As I walked in I was greeted by my counselor Jennifer who looked the same age as me. She saw the reluctance on my face and offered a tour. I declined, and of course chose the corner with a table and socket to charge my

There are many events that stand out in my life that were significant and helped me grow stronger. One of these events stands out in particular to me and had the greatest impact in my life. When I attended high school my focus was never on the academics but only on sports and having fun with my friends. I never payed attention for more than five seconds and failed to complete any type of work given to me. My lack of care for high school affected me on going to a four year college, playing a sport in college, and taking remedial classes.

We shut the truck

After a long, hard day at school I would come home to my parents screaming at each other about every single little thing. My parents were too busy fighting that they didn’t have time to pay any attention to me. They didn’t know that i wasn’t doing good in school or that I got bullied every single day since the 5th grade (i’m in 9th grade now) and they didn’t know that I would sneak out of the house late at night to go smoke and drink the pain away.

There have been very few events throughout my lifetime that I feel have impacted or inspired me with such noteworthiness and that I know will change my outlook on the world and affect me forever. One of those events occurred when I traveled to Portugal, my parent’s homeland. From this excursion in 2007, I learned the importance of family, most importantly the distant kind. It provided me with a totally different perspective on the world and how large and extended one’s family can really be; even across cultures and continents. I felt so fortunate learning this lesson at a young age and growing to appreciate the ideals I was brought up with as a child. The family I have in Portugal has always been there; however, their faces have aged and

My dad came over to my house and we had talked for the whole night about the choices I made and how they were not good choices. My dad helped me see the good in my life. I told my mom I was so sorry and how I had messed up really bad I kept asking her for her forgiveness.
