Losing Friends after High School
In the last two years I graduated from Mira Mesa High School, I lost many people I know the most before I met them. My friend’s weren’t bad people when I met them. They were good people we had a lot of fun in senior year we all went to prom and gradnite at Disneyland we made a lot in our last year of high school for our memories. After I graduated from my new high school everything changed, all I see all of my friends became into bad people who can be involved into crimes and can be end up in jail time for a crime convicted for rapes, burglary, killing, death threats, and violation. I stopped hanging out with many of my friends for several reasons. For an example a friend of mine named Dominique was hanging out with his

He is arrested for a threat to everybody and served in jail. First, they are using such as drugs, marijuana, cocaine, and heroin a lot of illegal to cause into trouble including joining with the cartels, drug dealers, or gangs. For an example there’s a person named Edward I met him since all the way back from middle school. He joined in a gang. It is called 5’9 Brims the blood gang he got out the liquor store he did smoked a lot of marijuana he saw an innocent boy started following him thinking that he’s a marshmallow man. He started to call him out to fight he pushed him started a death fight and in the end the kids injured very badly and threw him in the trash. I never liked how people change to be this and I never liked to hang out with people who are doing those illegal activities or turning into a crime scene because I do not want to get in trouble for that. I want to stay away from those kinds of people. Second, I want to hang out with good people who are concern about school and being serious about their education. My own friends either didn’t go straight to college or

    I started making friends easily after that because we had similar interests. After a while, I realized that hiding my true self and conforming to their interests wasn’t going to help me. I started sharing my interests with my new friends and found out that a lot of them liked the same things that I did. Soon after that, I decided that I couldn’t live in the past and I had to live my new life in my new town. I started looking at life positively and decided that moving was supposed to show me something important in life: being yourself is how you’ll be happy.…

    Growing up I was always the tallest kid in the class. Whenever class picture day rolled around, I knew that I was in the front of the line because of my height. It was somewhat embarrassing when all the boys were shorter than I, and the girls made me feel bad for how out of place I was. Not only did my height provide social awkwardness, it also administered the constant, never ending struggle of finding garments long enough. Whenever my mom or grandmothers wanted to take me back to school shopping, I made excuses of “I don’t need any more habiliments” or “I do not feel good, all of the sudden…”…

    A dilemma that I faced, and still am facing is simply the decision about what I want to do with my life after my high school career. In my freshman year of high school my goal was simply to get through the year in one piece. I was forced to conform to my new environment and all the strict rules that came along with it. Along with that it was the sudden transition from being the "big dogs" as eighth graders at my middle school to being "fresh-meat" in my first year high school. With so much attention placed on me as a freshman like on the varsity basketball team, where I was constantly forced to prove my worth to the coach and the players, to stepping out of my comfort zone and performing in a mandatory play for the rest of the the school as…

    When I was younger, I struggled to support any friendships for an extended period of time. Before I moved to GCMS School district, I had previously attended three separate schools for the same few reasons.

Moving so often made it difficult to keep in contact with old friends, and even more difficult to make new ones. As I was shy and introverted, it was an intimidating and terrifying situation.…

    I was constantly left out of things and had to push my way back into conversations. As uncomfortable and as hard as these moments were to go through, they were the moments that showed me what I valued in my friends. It also showed me that they weren’t the people I was supposed to be friends with. As time goes on I become more and more confident and comfortable with the decisions that I have made that have made in choosing the friends that I have today. We were bound to stop being friends due to the amount of change they undertook in their morals and attitudes and how much I had not.…
