GED Stories

I had recieved my High School Diploma on Novmeber of 2007. I dropped out of High School because I was not treated like an adult, and that is what I expected. I figured it was going to be so much better than Middle School, but I was wrong. I was pushed to my limit and blew up. My anger got the best of me. I then realized that it was time for me to leave and find a new way. I then told my mother that it was either I dropped out or got expelled. We then sat down a talked about what would happen after that. At first she wasn’t very sure about it because of my 3 older brothers and sisters who had also dropped and but didn’t recieve their GED. I then told her she could trust me. So the next day dropped out and enrolled. Since then I now work two jobs, help my family, and am getting ready for college in  August. For those of you that don’t agree or just simply have difficulty with your High School I suggest that you go get your GED.

It will do you wonders.
