The time is now, But what if you could take everything that is now, and throw it back a few years? Would it change the course in how things run today? I have thought about this for a little while now. I have hypothesised that if we took the knowledge from today and put it in the past it would most definitely change the future. Although not in all cases would the change be all that dramatic, it would still change the future. So if I could send myself back in time I would go to the day I got suspended from school in grade 8.
It was a chilled December afternoon, snow covering the back field. Two of my best friends and I had just finished our final day of school before the glorious and much waited on winter break. The school had planed to have a dance that evening, and my friends and I were venturing threw the snow back to my house to gussy up. As we walked, we talked of course, and one of the conversations we had was something i didn't quite agree with but the strength of peer pressure had taken its tole over me and I agreed to do what they were asking. The dance was at 5:30, we were dolled up and carefully tiptoeing threw the snow on our way back to the school. There was an ally behind the school that we had to squeeze threw in order to get to the school and we decided to start our night there. We did things that disappoint me immensely to this day, and the next thing I remember is staring at the clock in the principles office wile it spins and warps out of shape. I felt like i was melting, that there was no chair beneath me, that my body was slowly sinking into a deep pit. I didn't understand what was happening to my body and I wished it to stop over and over again, Then my dad walked in the room and that's when I lost all control. I could not stop the tears flowing down my scared face as I stared into my Father's disappointed green eyes.
This is the day I wish I could go back too. To stop myself from giving into peer pressure. I feel going back could have saved me a hole bucket of guilt. I would have told myself how awful I would have felt, how dangerous it was and overall how stupid it was.
