Advice

If I knew than what I knew now many things would be a whole lot different. You live and learn and that is why people make mistakes. Making mistakes happens to everyone so most of the time it is no big deal. Growing up I have lived with only my mother and have a father I have not seen since I was little who does not pay child support at all. Growing up income in my household was not always what it was suppose to be. My mother had raised me very well and was able to maintain a job and pay for everything as a single parent. Now that I am older I go out more and do more things that are costly.

Clothes now a days are a lot more money and unfortunately it is not that easy to just go get a new outfit whenever I want even now. Getting a steady job should have been the first thing I did two years ago. I was old enough to be employed but i just did not want to work. Looking back at what I have now does not make me mad but it does make me realize that I should have kept the few jobs that I have had. If I have kept the job looking at it now I would have so much money saved up. Thankfully my mother has helped me throughout me not having a job but sometimes it makes me wana slap myself in the face for being so stupid.

Academically is another thing i would have give myself advice on. I never knew how hard it was to get into college and that grades were so important. Coming from a mom that was not so strict I was never push to do really good because not failing was okay in her book. Mostly maintain B's and some C's I managed to keep my grades up somewhat and than they finally rose. If I had did good since day one and actually tried a litle harder I know I could of done better. I am happy where I am at now at with the school I will be attending but it makes me realize If i did better I could have gone to my top school or accepted to some that I did not get in to.

SATS were a long and hard test. I took courses on them before the test and did not study. If I had studied my grade mostly would have been harder. The questions were the same type of equations and sentences that if I had studied I could have did better. I did not push myself as much as I could and that was my mistake. Also a main thing I would change is to stay in school sports freshman year I did three sports and they years after I slowly quit them all. I don't know exactly why I quit but now I regret it and wish I never did.
 

Privacy

Personal privacy is very important to me at some times. I love to be around people and not be bored but there are times when privacy is needed. Getting my work done involves a lot of personal privacy for me. If I am trying to write a paper or simply just getting homework done I can not have any distractions for me to get the job done quickly and to its best potential. Over all I would say I am a people person and love to be out as much as possible. Even though there are those times when I am mad or annoyed when I need some privacy that does not happen that much.

When I am home alone I usually take that time for privacy. Sometimes I will clean my room, just watch a movie or hangout. No one is ever home at my house so I do have a lot of privacy all the time. This is why I probably don't need privacy that often, I already have it. Sleeping is another thing I do a lot when I have privacy it is just nice to have time to myself and sleep in peace.

Having private time to yourself can be nice especially after not having it since a long time. I do not feel the need for privacy all the time but I do enjoy the time I have by myself most of the time. I don't like to sit home for days so I would never need that much privacy. I love to go out have fun with my friends and do things out of the house. Staying in all the time gets really boring after a while.

Most of the time when I am mad or really stressed out I like to have privacy for a little while. I like to have the time to myself to clear my mind and forget about everything so I have nothing to worry about. Taking the time to forget about things always helps me. Personally privacy is not all that important to me as it may be to others. Other people may love privacy and need it for other reasons but I defiantly do not need it that often.

worry

I do not think I am a big worrier. Sometimes small things make me worry like passing a test or being able to live a long life. I can remember going for my drivers test to get my license and that was a time I was really worried. Not knowing if i was going to pass worried be everyday for a while when it came close to the date to get my license. Passing the test was the most important thing to me. I did not want to be the one who failed or the one who could not do it. It took a lot of practice and constantly worried me but in the end it worked out.

I dont like worrying a lot it freaks me out. I feel like you should be able to live most of your life with out worries. Worrying about the small things in life can make anything stressful or a person and i dont like that. For the most part i try to keep calm with everything. If someone makes me mad i try not to worry aobut it because i know they can forgive me for the most part. There isnt a need to worry about most things that people do. Worrying can make you upset or interfere with other things.

In most cases I do not worry a lot on the other hand my family does. A lot of them are older and they worry about every little thing. I hope I am not like them because all worrying does is make them paranoid about everything!
