Veronica's Story
Life
Since high school, I've been through a lot. I've made the worst mistakes of my life and learned the best lessons. It took a 4 year period of escaping with drugs and acting like someone I thought I was, to find out who I really was. It took years to get over the trauma of 'not fitting in' in high school and getting picked on. Now, at 27, I found God, I found myself, I graduated college with my Bachelor's in Criminal Justice, and I finally love myself. Thanks to all who always loved me in high school. To those who belittled me to make themselves feel better (RP), you didn't break me..and how ya like me now? Others no longer define who I am, I do!
School
Hmmmm...high school...elementary school too...let's see...can you say TORTURE! Filled with rich, spoiled, self-defined 'popular kids'. Snubbing and belittling normal kids to make themselves feel better about their worthless, sheltered little lives. But I'm not bitter...oh no! I was. For years.

inuing to have importance in my life. So I grew, I accepted myself, and wouldn't you know it?...I love myself! So, would I do high school all over agin...? Yes. If only to be braver the second time around. This time I would defend myself and anyone else who was getting picked on. I learned nothing in high school but how to hate myself more and more everyday. Stupid lesson. Now I learn to love myself more and more everyday. So, I guess I wouldn't go back. Ok, I'm bored. Buh bye!
College
SDSU was the best journey of my life. I learned to open my eyes to other parts of the world and care about things going on outside of my insignificant little life. I learned how lucky I am to live in this country and to have the blessed life that I have. I studied hard and played very little, but it all payed off in the end. I found myself and learned more about the world than I thought possible. The one regret I have is not being more social and making more friends. To those I did make, thanks for a great experience!
