I'm 14 years old and because of this I haven't had to make many big decisions or sacrifices. I consider myself blessed as I haven't experienced suffering or tragedy and I hope I never will. But I have been let down and gone through heart-break of which I recovered - c'est la vie.
The biggest decision I made was choosing my high school, and I know that probably doesn't sound extreme or anything but now two years later - I realise how major and life changing it was. I have practically become a different person, I am now proud and happy of who I am, more confident and I have progressed in absolutely everything. Instead of hanging around with those who are a bad influence on me, I am friends with nice, quieter people who concentrate on their school-work instead of meeting boys.
I have been left heart-broken, and in many ways it killed a part of me which I have never seen again. I know many people say how you cannot fall in love young, but I have and it was the best and most special feeling. I'm not stupid or naive, I'm very mature for my age. Therefore, those who know me best understand and didn't doubt that it was love.
Now as this new person, I'm ready to face these decisons and sacrafices that are bound to be flung my way!
Thank you,
Take care ..

Keeping the baby, and looking after him well as he grew up. He is now a well adjusted, loving, tall handsome young man. He's a plumber, and has become engaged to a lovely girl. All the years of grinding poverty and missed opportunities were worth it to give him the best start I could. I seem to have been fighting all my life. Fighting for a place to live, fighting for money to pay the rent and council tax, fighting in court to keep the house because they cocked up my benefits, trying to find work that paid enough to keep the childminder in holidays, and food on the table. After six years alone, I thought I found the right man, only to have him leave me too, five months pregnant, and I cried for three months because I thought I couldn't face doing it all over again. But I did. And now I have two strapping sons, and both are a joy to my heart. Now that my youngest is old enough to look after himself after school, I can finally resume my studies, and perhaps get a degree. Whatever stage in life you are at, there will always be challenges. It's what makes life interesting.

As a teenager, I know that one thing will most likely happen that will be tough to avoid: drama. Come one, teenagers have raging hormones, therefore, creating drama. One of the decisions I have made is that no matter what happens, I won't get caught up in drama and if by any chance I do, I don't do anything about it. So far, it has benefitted me in many ways. I see my friends getting caught up in drama and they are making themselves look extremely stupid. But not me! =D
Why? Because of the decision I made.

As a teenager I induced someone not to make a same mistake which came with grievances,sacrifices,pains and the trade-off were hatres in silences.

My decision was not to grow up to quickly. Thefore I gave up doing stuff to make me look cool and hangin' with the "cool crowd", such as smoking and taking drugs - drinking, you get the idea? I still like to belive in father christmas even though I know the truth, ha ha - that type of stuff.

to act like a teenager, including making the typical decisions AS a teenager. I can take myself way too seriously, be obsessively self-involved and expect the world to revolve around me because we're are allowed to be self-indulgent

what school to go to; it would decide the friends i made [well.. would make] what music i ended up listening to, drugs vs. no drugs, when 8th grade ended, it brought the pains of leaving my friends, because when i wet to highschool they all went to a different one because of the school i chose, the material i would learn
and then also what extra curricualr things to do: drama- i love it, but takes alot of time, and you have to be fully dedicated, and no phisical activity, but alot of amazing [funny and outgoing] people... volley ball, HARD work, good workout, learn how to work with a team, but not much time for other things...
drugs or no drugs. that's obvious for the possibilities. [and i'm VERY proud to say i chose none :]]] ]

Why not think about your own life and the decisions you've made in your lifetime?
But to answer your question, I think one of the biggest was to attend church, it definitely changed my life for the better.

I've decided to be a teenager.
I can be rude, violent, drug-taker, without any fear of the consequences.
