In my life I have made many important decisions and the most important decision I have made was to continue my education after graduating from high school. During my senior year of high school I did not know what to do with my life like many other high school seniors feel like when they are nearing graduation.

She was the weird girl who was a freak and should be avoided. When I got the high school‚ I knew it wouldn’t be a brand new start like everyone had promised me‚ but I knew I had to make the best of what I could.

Years ago when I was in college night classes…I purchased and began carrying a gun after [taking firearms training] sponsored by the local [police department]. It may seem odd now‚ but at the time many girls [at our school] carried guns everywhere‚ including in classrooms. How much things have changed. Fast forward a few years to my full-time job after college. I worked for a CEO and had a glass office next to his.

Learning comes in various forms. That’s what I realized when I experienced being involved in different activities since high school. Most of them involved doing something that was never in my comfort zone. But that’s how we learn‚ right? The first time I got involved with something I never did before was during my sophomore year.
