Prisoner Reaction

Prisoner Reaction

            Extended 2^nd period was the last thing I wanted to deal with. I figured it was going to be just another lecture hour. Teachers saying “blah, blah, blah.” “Do this, do that.” I immediately got annoyed and headed to the gym just like the rest of the seniors. When we got in there, there were a bunch of men standing there with signs hanging on them. I immediately became curious. When they started sharing their stories it kind of hit me. No I did not cry I just felt some kind of way. I felt like what they were saying was something that a lot of people needed to hear. Especially the senior class because right now we are making some of the biggest decisions of our lives. Some people broke down during the presentation and some people shook their head in disbelief. Thinking “Did they really just say that there is more to life than drinking and smoking.” It unfortunate that some people think that way. Anyways, what was coming for the prisoners mouths was somewhat relatable. We all Went through a time when we followed the crowd and got lost in it. It’s a dangerous path and their presentation was an eye-opener.
