I don't usually think about my high school days since for me they were nothing special, but I remember being told by my English teacher that some day I'd never amount to anything since I was always joking around with my friends and didn't really care much for his class. I pretended like it didn't bother me since what teenager doesn't like to act like an arrogant know it all that doesn't care about shit. But I went home that night and thought about what he had said and it kept replaying in my head. Had a moment recently and remembered it and happy to say I proved him wrong. I work a great job as a manager of a tech team. My gf and I bought our first home about 3 years ago since she was pregnant and we knew we needed space and better schools, and now we're planning to have a wedding to finally get married. I'm not mad about what he said and maybe it was just what I needed, but happy to say I amounted to something afterall.
