There's always something happening in people's lives. Some may be good and some may be bad, but whenever something does go wrong people always over react to what has happened to them. I recently talked to a friend who told me, "You only live once, you need to set a goal for yourself and then follow it."
When something bad happens in your life you need to take that experience and use it to your advantage. Feed off of that experience and use it as encouragement to do something better with your life with whatever happens. There's always something going on and you can't always expect everything to be perfect how you want it.
It's usually the little things that happen in life that people over react to. They never actually notice how much they over react to something until after it happens and they look back and ask themselves, "What was I thinking?". I feel that without all this drama then life would not be that interesting to tell you the truth. All everyone ever hears at school is about all the drama that happens and it gives everyone something to talk about.
Lets face it people making mistakes and drama is just a part of life. It's really not that bad everyone just needs to be reasonable about what is going on. Never get down on yourself if something does not go according to plan. It's just another bump in the rode that you have to get over, and after you get over that bump you will realize that it wasn't that hard in the first place.
Everyone makes mistakes in life, and trust me I have made my fair of mistakes, but I realized that after everything happens there's nothing I can do about it anymore and I need to move on with my life and fix it the best way I possibly could. Whenever something happens it is usually best to go with your gut instinct. Think about the cause and effect of your actions, and ask yourself if you are willing to take that risk.

Hi I am Shannon and I am not a great writer and to tell you the truth I am simply doing this just to receive a good grade in my class. I am going to talk about pressure, pressure from parents, pressure from fellow peers, and ext.
When it comes to pressure I receive a great deal of it. I have been playing softball for about the past 5 years. And now that I am a junior in High School I feel like I get twice the pressure then i did before. When some parents talk to their kids they talk about how their day was or what they are going to do that week, but when I talk to my dad all he ever talks about is softball. I understand that he is just trying to help me go to college but the pressure he puts on me is too much. After school we always go to the batting cages and if I don't do good, he tells me that I'm not trying hard enough. My life REVOLVES around softball.
If your parents are like my dad then I know how you feel and the best way to deal with the pressure they put on you is by looking at it in a positive way. I mean they are just trying to help you succeed in life. My dad is the first one to get angry at me when I do something wrong when playing softball and it always feels like he is never happy if he feels that I'm not trying hard enough. Sometimes the pressure from my dad comes off like this in my perspective, but in reality it's not that bad. I'm just a teenage kid always over reacting everything.
I feel that one of the hardest pressures to deal with are the ones from your parents. I always react the wrong way toward my dad when he pressures me. I get angry and yell, but I should take his pressure and turn it into encouragement and do better out on the field. If you get pressure from parents you should look at it from their point of view before retaliating (I should listen to my own advice).
