Pushed To The limit

by Ashleigh
(Atlanta, GA)

Well, when I was in school I was a decent student and hardly got in trouble besides the regular tardy. When I first came to this new school I didn't really get along with anyone but there was just this one girl who would never stop talking about me in a negative way. She would always tell her friends things about me and she would never let up.

By my junior year of high school I made a promise to myself not to get in any trouble and do everything I had to this year. But all the anger that I had for this girl built up and I got into a really bad fight with her, which ended up with me getting expelled. I got a brand new probation officer and an anger management sentence.

But most of all even though though the other girl was just as wrong as me she got to stay at the school and I didn't. I felt like I was at my limit. So I took matters into my own hands and now I have to deal with the consequences of my actions. All I have to say is lesson learned!
