On Monday I made probably the biggest impulsive act that I have ever had. I was at my boyfriends tattoo studio, and his friend's girlfriend was there too, so we started talking about everything and anything. Then she started telling about the school that she goes to which is about 5 blocks away from the studio. She began to tell me all these marvelous things about it and how it is an arts school and everyone can choose the artistic career they chose once they enter 3rd semester (which in the United States is Junior year in high school). I was barely staring 3rd semester at another school, but there was no way that I was going to miss the opportunity of signing myself up at this new school.
So what I did was call my parents to ask if I could switch, and naturally, they said, "Hell no," but that wasn't going to stop me from chasing my dreams. I went to the school anyways to sign myself up, and one thing that I love about Mexico is that we don't need a signature from our parents to enroll in high school! I signed up, and handed them the starting fee, which was money that I was saving up for my next tattoo. They told me that I start the next day, which was Tuesday, and I accepted.
Well, my parents were furious, but they got over it now, and I'm going to the school of my choice to pursue my goal. (:
The message is: never let anyone or anything stand in your way of doing what you think is right, and if an opportunity stands before you, seize it because you may never see it again.
