If I had to use an item to describe myself, I would use my graduation ring from middle school. The silver ring lined with the name of the school and the public school number with a gem in the middle that represents my birth month. Silly right? Middle school, as I am sure it was for a lot of people was a hard place to be in. It is the start and end of many things when it comes to people’s maturation periods.
The ring to me, shows how far I have come since that time, where I would argue I was at my worst. I was bullied a lot, didn’t really know why besides maybe a few things since I was a little weirdo back then, but it also reminds me of change, and how life is what you make it, and the same person I am today, is not the person I was over 5 years ago. I do not wear the ring, and I honestly don’t know where it is if you asked me, but it is something that means a lot to me.
I also wrote about my ring for this assignment. I find it interesting how you wrote about something that you have lost and how it still impacts you to this day. If you were able to find the ring, would you wear it?
