at one moment I didn't have hope 

I thought school was a joke 

i played around 

joked

thinking my grades would still be passing 

i slept in class and thought I would get through the school year that way 

I had done those things until I had spoken to someone 

the counselor 

she noticed something wasn't right

she talked to me and gave me advice 

my whole mindset had changed 

I was much more determined and far more motivated than I have ever been 

my class mates tried to get me to participate in foolishness 

I declined . 

Now im going off to college I've really had a big turn around And made my parents proud . 

It it brings hope to other young students also . 

You can always make the best out of the worst .
