I left school at the age of 16, and wasn't so sure on what to do next.
So, being the typical lad, I decided to experiment through drink & drugs, partying all night and staying at friends..
On July 21st, I turned 17 and had been invited to a club, during the night I had been drinking heavily and popping pill after pill, until the club closed..
It was then I decided to do such a silly thing, me and my mates decided to scope out a few cars, and decided to take this particular one, it had the greatest sound system I had ever seen..
During our joyride, we went to some beaches and drove about aimlessly, not knowing what to do next.
When we had finished, I decided to take out the sound system and use it at home.
Four days later the police went to my mates, I thought it was because of the drugs, but it turned out he had been spotted from that night we took the car, i was at home at this point not knowing what was being said..
The next day I was arrested for taking without consent, I was summonsed to court and sent to jail... It was from this point, I realised that some people are not what they seem...
This was possibly one of my greatest and stupid moments of my life.. I learnt a lot from the age of 17, how to trust, respect and how to gain respect..
