FEARFUL/SCARIEST MOMENT
One moment that will always stay in my hear was when I was a senior in high school I got into the wrong crowd. I had just finished playing volleyball, and I have always played a sport in my life so I had a lot of free time on my hands, too much free time. I ended up hanging out with this girl who was not a very good influence. To make a long story short, one day my new friend and I got high and decided to go shopping at the mall. We tried on a whole bunch of clothes in the same dressing room and I noticed my friend taking of the security devices off the clothes and she taught me how to do it. So I decided to put a couple of things in my purse and when I was changing she put her stuff in my purse. Next thing I know we are exiting the mall and the security comes up to us and hand cuffs us. We are taken downstairs to this basement I did not even know it existed. I had just turned 18 a month prior and my friend was still 17 and since none of the stuff was in her purse and it was all in mine I got arrested. I was escorted through the mall in handcuffs, put in a cop car, and had to spend the night in jail with three other women. One woman was in there for beating her child, another was a Walmart employee who stole money out of the register, and the third was a younger girl who broke into a old lady's house with her boyfriend and stole a whole bunch of stuff. I was so scared, I did not sleep at all and the phone call to my parents was devastating, I felt terrible and so ashamed. My parents made me walk from the jail cell, when I got out at 6am, a couple miles to school and I had to wear the same clothes and could not shower. This situation scared me so bad that it changed me as a person, and I am much more responsible and cautious now.
