Today stayed as a normal school day where I woke up and got ready. However upon getting to school i noticed i left my phone. I shrugged it off and continued the day normally. After school i had a club that ended at 4:00. Before school I asked my grandmother if she could arrange a ride for me. She agreed and left to work. I say outside of the school till around 5:30 where i was getting impatient. I decided i would walk home. Biggest mistake. I didn't know exact distance and only knew the roads. So i began my journey. After about 40 minutes of walking i saw a little Valley lookin area. Like the wide open area you see for those big power lines. I saw cars at the other end and assumed that i could use this area as a shortcut. It wasn't. I was lost. I then started walking the wrong direction for about half a mile and a half until i went to someone's house for directions. He was s very old man with a hearing aid and no vehicle. He said my neighborhood was a mile the opposite direction i was going. I thanked him sighed and stayed walking again. It wasn't until i went to another stranger's house did i know where i was and was finally relieved. I found the final mile home and walked in the door, dropped on my knees and cried for a good 30 minutes. I got home at 7:30.
TL;DR: left my phone at home, had after-school meeting. And ended up walking two hours through the dark.
Sorry for formatting grammar and other incorrect things I'm so tired and I have a piercing headache. I'm sorry I'll try and fix it up when i wakeup and hopefully not have to go to school tomorrow.
