     A Night to Remember     The most traumatic experience Ive ever gone through was getting held up by three Mexicans. In some ways I regret my actions. If I had it my way, I would go back and handle myself a lot differently. Luckily, this view now makes me think more when Im in other tense situations.     It every started Halloween night 2001 in Dallas, Texas. My girlfriend, Tamara and I were driving from her house to mine for the night. It was some a thirty-minute drive and somewhere along the way we got separated. Tamara called me about five minutes from my house and told me there were some guys following(a) her. I verbalise "okay, well meet me in scarecrow of my house and Ill see who it is. I thought it would be a bunch of spirited school punks. Tamara pulled up to my house and so did a red Ford Taurus. eyepatch pulling in the Taurus pinned Tamaras car in so it couldnt move. Thats when these guys really s tarted urine me slay. The guys in the Taurus didnt realize I was there because I had my lights off so I turned my brights on and speed in front of there car and got out and yelled "What the fuck are you doing following my girlfriend." After separateing this I looked into the car and realized that these guys werent in high school. They were three adult Mexican males who didnt look too happy with the speech I had spoken. After a brief pause the man from the passenger seat got out of the car and shouted "what the fuck did you precisely say to me?" I froze in total shock as he pulled a gun on me and told me he was going to shoot me. I was altogether numb at this point, as anyone would be. He then started yelling that I wasnt such a big man now and that I was just a punk ass white boy. The man started asking me what I thought about dieing and asking me if I precious to die. I responded amazingly calm and said "no sir, I dont want to die, and Id like to live&quo t. The man must have asked me if I wanted to die a dozen or so times. The man keep to walk around ranting and raving and shouting at me. While walking around shouting he was waving his gun in my face which was making me very nervous.
