An event that had a major impact on me on a personal level was when I couldn’t be enrolled into a normal high school because of how bad I messed up in junior high, grade wise. I had to be enrolled into an adult continuation school because I didn’t meet the qualification requirements for a high school. I remember walking in the front office on the first day of class with my dad and having to wait to speak with the superintended to find out whether or no I was able to enroll. I was completely nervous on what would happen, When me and my dad finally sat down in the her office to talk to her about me enrolling and how I would be on a academic contract. Stating that if I should fail the courses it could cost me going back to a regular high school and I would have to get my GED at a adult continuation school. And as I sat in that office with my dad reality hit me in the gut that I couldn’t be messing around anymore or else it would cost me deeply. So after that I got my stuff straight and did good and got out by the second semester and was able to enroll to a normal high school, But I remember that meeting with the superintended on how I wouldn’t be able to do the activities of normal high school kid and in my mind I was thinking hell no but now it’s just in the past.
