In Chapter eleven, Mark has grown to be 16 years old, he gets his license to drive, and they day after the test he had asked a girl named Annette Guillaume out on a date. Mark and Annette started to talk on their date, and to Mark’s surprise, she was a lot like him. Their similarities were amazing, she was pretty, smart, and got interested into things very easily, such as Mark did. Annette also was seen as a good girl, very inexperienced in deviant behavior, which was a good thing. Annette played a classical instrument as well. Annette’s parents were both doctors, and pretty high class, but they did not seem to be very judgmental. When Mark came into Annette’s house he did not look like the ideal perfect teenager, he had very long hair, dirty shoes, and a rusty old Volkswagen bus that he had taken their daughter on a date in, but they still nodded with approval.
Towards the middle of my high school career, I had constantly worried about getting my license. I was very nervous about failing the test countless times, this is because I took the test and failed it, and it was a while before I took it again. When I took it the second time I was confident and had passed with flying colors due to bugging my mother about letting me drive all the time. Shortly after that I had met a girl, a girl who changed me in ways I couldn’t imagine. We started to date and I kept up with my work in school until the following summer when I had gotten a job as a bus boy. Things looked up for me senior year, and I am still with that girl today.
After I graduated I had worked a lot until I forced myself to leave work because of this bridge program, which in my opinion was worth it, my studies are much more important than working my first job.
