A Good Day at School
An example of a good day I had at school was on May 20 2005. I had had a bad
week so far and did not want to go to school that day. But I chose things to be happy
about and went. It was a good day in the end. Sometimes you have to make yourself
happy no matter what.
Like I said it had been pretty bad week. And I really did not want to go to school
that day. It was mostly because I was a senior and there was no point for me to be there
besides to see all my friend who would be leaving in about a week to get ready for
college. And those that weren’t leaving were still in high school. Add in the fact that my
then best friend Niki was mad at for God only knows why and you had a pretty sucky
week. And I definitely did not want to leave her on bad terms. On top of all that I hadn’t
spoken to my ex boyfriend Mike in about two weeks. And he was the one person I was
going to miss the most. Well at least I thought I was going to miss him.
But despite the fact everyone was leaving, Niki was mad at me, and I hadn’t
spoken to Mike there was still some good in the world. Like for example I saw Juan first
thing in the morning. He always seemed to brighten my day and today was no different.
Secondly it was Friday. And if nothing else I still had the weekend to look forward to
where I could hang out with Leah Megan Brandon Jess and all the people in my
neighborhood. Thirdly I did get to sleep in and come in late. So I only had three classes to
sit through and do nothing in. And Mike was single again and I had already tried to get
him back and was just waiting on his answer which was sure to come that day.
Finally around fifth period my moment came. I was walking down the hall and
who do I run into but Mike. And he asked me out and I of course said yes. That made the
whole day worth it. It made the whole week from hell worth going through just to have
that one moment. It really was the perfect ending to the day. Then when I got home the
day got even better. I got home and my mom was home and it was a really nice
afternoon. And Brandon, Sami, Leah, and Megan were at my house. And I got a call from
Mike and it was a pretty good day.
So all in all, the day was alright. I think it was because I chose to look on the
bright side and realize that even with all the bad it wasn’t like the world was over. Now
I’ve been dating Mike for four months and I’m happier than I’ve ever been. That day had
a huge impact on my life and I wonder what would have happened if I had sat at my
house all day. I probably wouldn’t be who I am today and would have lost touch with
Mike. Just goes to show you sometimes no matter how bad things are they can always get
worse unless you make you own luck and make it better.
