Pre - Writing

I believe in accomplishing things in life. I believe in this because if someone really puts their mind to something and maybe has a person by his / her side, they can do anything they want to.


In my life, I have accomplished things that I always thought that I could never do. Throughout this entire situation I have had my mom, a few family members, and a few others by my side saying " Meghan, you are doing so well.. keep up the excellent work." My situation is that I never thought that I would finish school. When I went to middle school, my attendance was good enough to say that yeah I was there, so what. My freshmen year I started off well, but torwards the end i started messing up. Sophmore year, I had promised myself that im going to do the best that I could and start going to school and doing my work. I had followed my promise all the way through that school year. As soon as my junior year hit me, I finally realized that I really need to put my ALL into what im doing, and step my game up.

It was all doing so well until one day a teacher had called me to the side and said that she would like to speak with me for a minute. She said that I was missing a little assignment in her class and that she wanted me to stay after to finish it up. I had told her repeatedly and politely that i was not able to only because I am babysitting directly after school. I guess that she didn't like my answer because when I had turned to walk away, she had grabbed my arm to get my attention.. But honeslty, that had only made me more mad. So all I did is just look at her, and turned and walked away.

That same day as soon as I had gotten home and told my mom the situation, she immediately and had me transfer to a different school. for the rest of the year, it went good. my attendance was increasing, my grades were going alot higher, etc. So following that, I had proven to my mom that as long as I was never in that teachers class again, I will do very well. As I was going into my senior year, my little sister was a freshmen. That was another reason my mom wanted me to go back to the other school. So I had attended school on a regular basis for a couple months. But when it was time for schedule changes, I had immediately wanted to quit school, because I didn't feel like dealing with the drama from that specific teacher.
