Past mistakes can haunt us even years later.

This woman once Photoshopped a college class grade to graduate from high school.

Now she’s 25 and dreams of becoming a CPA, but is terrified this old secret will ruin her future.

Check out the full story below for all the details.

I photoshopped my college report card to graduate high school.

I had to take two college classes in my senior year to get the right amount of credits to graduate.

At the beginning of my freshman year, I went to a treatment center and missed 9th to 11th grade.

I did basic schooling while there, but I did not get the right amount of credits during my time there.

This woman used Photoshop to edit her grades.

Fast forward to senior year in traditional high school.

I am cramming classes along with the two college classes.

I used Photoshop to change the number and letter grade.

I gave it to my small-town high school.

She graduated, and nobody suspected a thing.

They graduated me with the exact amount of credits needed.

Nobody ever said anything, so I rolled with it.

I have quite literally thought about this every single week since.

And it makes me so ashamed.

She wanted to go back to school, but she’s afraid they won’t let her.

I have told my husband, but nobody else.

He was supportive and actually sympathized with me.

I am now 25 and wanting to go back to school to become a CPA eventually.

I am terrified I won’t be accepted into college.

I am scared I’ll never get the chance to actually do something with my life.
