What Happened That Night?

I wish passionately that the turn of events that occurred this year were different but that is not possible and I feel the need to explain myself and the reasoning behind my unsatisfactory

I have many times I sometimes wish I could change but then I realize that if I didn't do what I did or if others didn't do what they did, I wouldn't be who I am today. The only thing I want to change about myself now is become more successful and you do that by moving forward, not looking

Here’s the thing about high school, it’s terrible. Not because I don’t just absolutely love learning useless things like the makeup of a plant cell, but rather because teachers and students underestimate me or try to walk all over me because I’m that one kid who gets into fights and lives in detention. Oliver, he likes to call himself my dad ever since the adoption, I still call him Oliver to mess with him though, insists I need to graduate high school knowing I hate it. However he likes to tell me there’s a silver lining in everything and the silver lining for me going to school is Matt. Perfect, smart, cool, and absolute badass Matt Williams. Hockey team captain and resident popular guy.

As I look back on my life, I wouldn’t change what happened. Because I was expelled out of school, I had to attend an alternative program which caused me to rethink my life choices. My friends changed along with my relationship with my parents. Since graduation I have been in a serious relationship and gave birth to my son, Austin. I also experienced a serious health problem called graves’ disease that required a thyroidectomy. All these events are making me a stronger person to take back my

I wish I had been a better man, who knew it all, being the one with the right clothes and friends.

A really good song called “A Teardrop in the Ocean” by Ron Pope reminds me of this everytime I listen to it. Ron mentions “I don’t want to waste the weekend,” (Pope 2009). What I take from this is that he doesn’t want to live a boring life full of regrets. He wants to live his life to best of his ability. Another quote I like from his song is “never counting regrets,”(Pope 2009). Regrets are things that happened in the past. We should let them go and enjoy the future. This reminds me of a time over the summer. My grandparents wanted me to go to the beach with them. I wanted to go but not without my friend ashley, so I told them no. I ended up not going and I regret it now. It would have been really fun just to sit on the beach and relax. From now on I am going to live my life to the fullest no matter what. My life doesn’t have room for regrets. With this I am sure I will be able to have a positive

 I bet everyone could come up with something they wish they could do over again; I have a couple things. But if I were I would work harder to not get in trouble for touching other students, punching someone, or bringing toys to school. I would also work to get on some of my enemy's good side and then I could become friends with them so then we didn’t have conflicts with each other, I would also seek to have a healthier lifestyle when It occurred to food and not to overdo it with wheat so I could work to thwart my wheat allergy. I would also choose to participate in more sports so I could produce more friends and to be more sociable. I wish I hadn't ceased to be buddies with a boy named Corwin. He and I got into a dispute and he practically strangled me till I passed out, so after that, we never spoke to each other again. I also wish I strove harder on receiving my next ranks while I was in troop 443 before I moved away and moved to Troop 46 and in doing so making my Eagle Scout career easier.

He returned home to the United States in late 1988 and as my mother described, he had lost his mind. He was diagnosed with paranoid schizophrenia and she said it was too much for her, so she divorced him. I was young and did not understand what was happening, nor did I understand what was happening with my dad. As I became a

You finally make to your senior year of high school days away from graduation you receive word you've been accepted into the college of your dreams. Next fall you will begin classes. Since you have the summer off you figure this will be a great time to do some soul searching to figure out if all the work you have down towards becoming a pediatrician is what you want. During these three months of soul searching, You meet a few new friends and even start dating. You meet a guy who happened to be the star of your high school football team. You to hit it off instantly and you discover he will be attending the same college as you next fall. He is on a full ride scholarship to play football at the college. Since he trains most of the summer you still have time to figure exactly what you want out. Just weeks before school and football season starts your new love admits he has been using performance enhancing drugs. Leaving with tons of questions like. Why? How? and who else knows. You've spent each year since you were ten years old dreaming about the day you become a pediatrician and now you must live with this secret of another person that could potentially ruin their future and career. This big of thing is hard to keep without wanting to bite your hand

From the time my pops left I did not speak to him. I completely abandoned him, just like the way I felt he did to me. He tried to call me, I did not call him back, he tried to write me, I did not write him back, he even tried to come up and see me one day after school, I

Life is full of incidents and events that throw curveballs at you. It is how you deal with those trials and hardships that make you the person that you are. Growing up, I always hated when things would suddenly change, and even today I still do. One of the biggest regrets I have, though small and simple, is when I quit playing the piano. Though this seems childish and not at all drastic, it is still something I really feel badly about not pursuing. By quitting the piano, something I was extremely good at, it has not only left a lasting effect on me, but my family as well.

As I carry on my day I start thinking, Could I have done better, did I make the right decisions, could I have made better decisions? Like countless others I have my share of regrets, but I’ve never been unhappy in life, I achieved a great deal more than my parents did, and as I watch my own kids, I see they have achieved more than I. Of course, if I could have a do over there are a few things I would change.

Something I regret doing is quitting dance. Dance was my get away spot where I could be myself, but sadly after 7 months of dance, we were told there would be a recital at the end of the year in front of all the parents. There really would have only been like 20 parents but as soon as I thought of a stage I felt really scared. So I quite dance so that I did not have to go onto a horrible stage and make a fool of myself. The other thing I wish I did was join choir. I had a really good voice in second grade but I was always scared everyone would laugh at me.

They all stared at each other in horror. The nine people that were assigned to watch Mr. Trump’s fourteen million dollars, all in shock were confronted by Donald Trump himself. Gentlemen, I have a job for you. You’ve obviously failed me. No matter. If you’re going to think, you might as well think big. I’m placing you people to find the thief. If you do, you will get a small amount of seven million dollars.

If one could possibly go back and change a significant event, what would it be? Is there anyone out their who can honestly say they have no regrets. Personally, I don’t think there is, everyone makes mistakes and sometimes they can be so drastic that one just wants to start over. Although I have a couple regrets, I love myself all in all. If I could I would change just a few things because I believe your mistakes makes a person who they are. I regret a couple of things, one being the fact that I didn’t get a job earlier. Also, I regret letting my mother influence me on the current situation I am in now. Lastly, I regret being born but not in the way that one would think.
