My Biggest Fear: Losing Parents Hopes for me

   My parents were very important to me when i was little and I usually didn't do anything to make them mad, but the worst part was losing their hopes of me. When I was in my junior year of high school I had some tough times. My grades were getting pretty low and I started to slack of more in class. I really felt like I couldn't deal with the pressure of high school, and with all of the homework that I would get a day I couldn't last much longer, and i got the thought of dropping out.
   I had to think to myself what I would do if i actually dropped out, plus what was I going to tell my parents if I actually did go on with this plan. I wouldn't want to disappoint them and be the only person in my family to drop out of high school. I had already once told them that I was going to drop out and they were very disappointed in hearing that. My parents want all of their kids to go to college and be able to live their lives in a good way. I remembered that day like it was yesterday and it really made me rethink what I was thinking because I don't want to fail their hopes for me.
  I decided not to dropout and just push through high school and graduate. Now I'm 22 and just finished graduating college and i' so glad that I didn't dropout and listened to my parents.
                                                                                                                                                                       

My true fear is not being able to find people that love me for me and being able to find love in my life. I want to be able to one day start a family with someone in the future.

  3. I like the angle that you put on your narrative and how it ended in the present tense.
