"Whoa!", exclaimed my mother when she found out I got caught for plagiarism, "your going to be grounded for a while." Getting caught for plagiarism has taught me a lot of rules because it is illegal to plagiarise, zeros on assignments, and parents will be very mad.

It is so simple to plagiarise and not even realize one is doing it. Me on the other hand, did it on purpose because i needed to get my report done. When i did it, i made the work appear as if i wrote the whole thing. Now that is stealing and i thought i could get away with it. But boy, was i wrong! It was the first time i ever got caught, so i got let off with a warning and a zero on the assignment. But people go to jail everyday for plagiarising. I amnever gonna do it again. I learned my lesson.

When a person gets caught for plagiarism, they do not even realize the biggest effect it has is on the parents. Well of course i knew the getting grounded was coming, but i didnt expect to lose trust from my parents. I tried to explain why it happened to them, but they did not want to hear it. The more they did that the worse my relationship wiht them got. I never wanted this to happen again. I learned my lesson.

The overall worst possible thing to happen after getting caught for plagiarism is returning to the class. The assignment i plagiarised on got a zero put in the gradebook. But i was thinking that it was not that big of a deal. It turns out that my grade dropped a lot and i ended up failing that class for the year. I had to retake the class next year or get held back. So i took it for summer school. One zero almost didnt let me graduate. I learned my lesson.

All in all, People think getting caught for plagiarism is not bad a all. I used to think that too, until it happened to me. SO dont plagerise on any assignment, for any reason. Between almost not graduating, loss of respect and trust from my parents, and getting a zero on an assignment, It definitely is not worth it! For just one project. I learned my lesson.
