I was a looser...
If you're in school right now, think to yourself you don't want to end up like me right now going through this realization of no accomplishment.
When I was in school I used to think I was "cool", I used to smoke, drink alcohol and smoke weed.
First joint I smoked was when I was 14 about the same time, it was my first time coming home paralytic and throwing up all over the place from downing a bottle of vodka with a group of guys.
I let my mother down, but boy did I have some good stories to tell girls in my school (I went to a all girls school) and alot of girls looked up to me because of how much "fun" I had, now I wish they didn't.
My group of friends were the same, we cheered eachother on, sneaked out of our houses late at night to either attend a party or just chill at the little kids park and drink.
Get caught smoking at the back of school buildings and running straight through the school visitor entrance because it was fun.
I'm 20 now, left school at 16 (I'm in the UK), me and my school friends are no longer in contact.
I had to redo all my classes in college because j failed everything, but I didn't change as a person so no surprise here but I failed again and went for the third time, I finally passed and that was just GCSE (General certificate of secondary education) which everyone gets at 16 but I got at 18.
I found my one at 18 and got pregnant, I put my education on hold.
Gave birth at 19 and had the idea to be a stay at home mom and live off my partners income (totally doable) till my child is in school.
I'm 20 now and looking through my old school students, they're all in unversity, getting their degrees, travelling the world and whatnot, then I look at my group of friends... all not doing anything good in their life, working in factories, living off benefits and still causing the same drama we done a few years back.
And I'm not different, I'm not causing drama but I've got nothing good going in my life either except from my precious little boy which I do not regret at all but j wish I could be a great role model.
I used to think I was cool and popular but now I'm just a looser.
I'm using this realization to go back to college this year and start level 1 in accountancy and extra courses to improve my GCSE levels to be able to get into level 2.
I'm choosing accountancy because maths was my strongest subject and honestly I do love it.
I'll have to enrol my son at a daycare too.
I'm happy I come to this realization when I'm still young and can still do something about it.
If you've taken your time to read this and you're in the same position then please use this time you have to do something great! Something you'll be proud of yourself about and can make your tomorrow better than your today.
I love you all and you can do it!!!
