Transcrpit Attendance
Transcrpit Attendance
little family and they are struggling themselves, so I had to do what I had to do, I was
working trying to make sure I had some to eat and somewhere to sleep and clothes.
Yes, I could of got help sooner but my pride was too big I didn’t want to seem like I was
needy, you know? I regret missing school for money but then again I was scared, I
didn’t want to be on the streets, I didn’t want to have to wear hammy down clothes, but I
will say I’m proud of myself, still missed school but I came and did my work and now I’m
graduation like I promised myself I would. Not proud of the way my grades were but I’m
glad they are good enough to graduate high school, I get to prove to everyone who
doubted me wrong. I thought my attendance was going to stop me from walking but until
I realized how important it was to walk I was just going to do my work and keep missing
school just for the diploma, but I want memories not a paper, the paper is what proves
that I graduate, but me walking that stage will give me more pride, more reasons to brag
and more memories that I will cherish forever. I believe all my attendance and transcript
papers are not a reflection of who I am, that’s just a paper that tells someone how long i
went to school and how many classes I passed or failed. Who I am is someone totally
different, I just had hardships through my years in school and had to grow up faster than
I was suppose to. I didn’t want to miss all those days but I felt then I had no choice,
which some days I didn’t. I had to sacrifice some things and that’s just how it was, if I
could go back and do it all again, I’m not going to lie, I’d probably still be more of trying
to stable myself than school, because sometimes I think if I didn’t worry about where I
was going to go what would of happened, how would things be? I think about this
everyday, I’m glad I’m graduating but I’m also glad I didn’t give up and worked hard for
the things I have now, Now I know at my lowest I could still make it to the top.
