Back in High School, I had my small circle of good friends, and around my junior year, I met a Wonderful girl. We had our ups and downs, and looking back at it now, I miss those days very much.
Towards the end of my Senior year, I just let my life decay and fall to pieces, I stopped talking to friends, gave up my job, and just stopped bothering to save up for a car. And, started to neglect this wonderful girl.
She finally left me, and like most guys, I got angry about it (even though all I did was watch TV and play video games all day). I handled everything horribly.
My parents got me to go through college, first few semesters, I was still apathetic about life, barely keeping my grades above a 2.0 GPA. After that, I just stopped going for a semester.
About 2 months ago, came the day I looked back at my life, wondering what I was gonna do with myself, and thought back to my High School days when things were much better. It occured to me just how great everything felt when I thought about the times I spent with the girl . Strangely enough, that same day I went back to the college campus, signed up for the next semester classes. The semester started just over a month ago, and I've made certain to turn in every assignment on time and my grades have never been this good before.
After getting my classes set up, I did something else quite strange that day, I went and signed up for a gym membership and have been going ever since, and only working out for 2 months, there is an incredible difference.(you get incredibly weak and skinny from sitting around all day
)
Now not only this, I went Job hunting and started up the process of saving up enough cash to get my own car
Seems kinda strange, that it was the girl I lost a few years ago thats given this enthusiam for life.
In case anyone was wondering, I came across some people from high school that still keep in touch with her. She went off, married, and has a baby on the way currently.
Anyone got stories to share? :P
