Greatness Lies Ahead.......
I'm honestly glad I'm a very determined person. I've honestly have been ''trash talked'' by a few people this week(which apparently were jokes), but I ended up proving them wrong. By being prudent in what I do, I managed to get two 100s in two quizzes, which I'm very happy of. I think I'm also getting better at accepting who I am as a person, and participating more in certain areas where I think I can improve on. So, the virtues that I practiced this week were pretty much all tied to school as you can probably already tell. In Science Olympiad this week, I guess in a way I practiced honesty by telling a teacher that my parents couldn't come to a trip out of a state for competing(even though it's supposedly cancelled now). Prudence got me far because I've been being careful as to how I think or approach certain topics or people. Maybe I kind of had a rocky start to the year, but now everything is returning back to what it was, and hopefully it stays that way. Tomorrow I have a test, so I better be prudent so that I don't make silly mistakes. Acceptance this week was basically already stated. I accepted myself for who I am as a person, and have learned how to hopefully drown out hateful words. So, overall, pretty good week, and I hope things stay that way. I realize that things won't always go your way or be like they always used to be, but with enough determination and confidence, you'll slowly start to realize that things can actually return back to normal, and that you need to embrace the hate(sorry if that sounded extremely cheesy). I'm looking forward to the next week, and I will talk to you all in the next blog. Goodbye.
Hey Alejandro,
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad this past week was great. It really is hard accepting oneself and the fact that you have started doing that is so great. Sometimes it's hard to drown out the hate, especially in a school filled with smart people--the pressure is always on. It takes a while to get out of a bumpy road but the fact that you've endured it makes you such a good person. I hope that you keep being able to go around the bumps on the road.
have a good week!
