Most important educational experience

There have been many educational experiences throughout my life. some of them very important, others not so much. so this is difficult for me to put my finger on one and say it was the most important. but i would have to say my most important educational experience was when i was suspended from school for 20 days. i had just got pulled into the office by security. i already knew what was going on and that i was screwed. you are probably thinking, "why was this his most important educational experience? he is getting in trouble" well the reason why this is the most important is because i was a bad kid. i was headed nowhere fast, and i also was hanging out with the wrong people and crowd. when the principal starting lecturing me i wasn't really listening. but when i did start to listen, he opened my eyes, this was my wake up call. i got suspended for 20 days, and over the course of those 20 days, i thought about things i could do differently, or ways to better my life so that i don't end up getting in trouble like i did before. this experience molded me to be the person i am today. had this not happened, i dont know where i would be or if i would still being doing the bad things i did when i was younger.

  1. This does sound like a very important educational experience! A lot of times, the hard lessons that mean the most (even if they do bite at the time).
