essay..what i did today

A person can not be determined by what they have or the situation's
that life places them in, but what they do with what they have to
create better situation's for them and others. When I was first asked
to write this I truly didn't know what to write. Then I starting writing my
accomplishments down such as debate team, tour guide, and peer mediator and
i started to see a pattern. Then pattern was that I am hardworking, good person
and creative mind set. Some reasons that I am this way is because of my family
who in inspires me to be who I am and creative.
When it comes to work I must say I do try my best when I am pushed.
Work to me is something that I can always get better at I feel like
its always more room for growth. I always feel like I can get more out
of anything I do. I push myself because I know my best is as far as I
can go and I have no limit. Don't get me wrong not everything interests
me but I try to get as engaged as possible into the subject. I always
try to make up ways to make things interesting. In history to remember
some key leaders I gave them nicknames so I wouldn't forget. I would
also make up short poems or songs. Even when I can't stand the subject
I have a positive mind set. I am a very positive person when it comes
to learning something new. I never get mad when I can't understand
something I just think its a good way to push myself even harder. I
believe that there's a brighter side to everything and if you don't
understand something then you don't give up just try harder.
One thing I think that's important is to always be a good person.
Now when I say good person I don't mean just smiling and acting the
part you have to do the actions as well. I always help my friends with
classwork and homework because sometimes I get the understanding of
somethings faster then they do. I don't just help them with school but
also with personal issues. My friends always come to me for advice
because they trust that I won't lie to them and tell them what I truly
think and not what I would do but keep their best interest at heart. I
remember we had this kindness week at out school.in this week each day
we had to be nice to one person each day. One month has passed and I
was still engaged in it. I remember my friend told me that it was over
and that I didn't have to do it anymore. It has become so apart of my
daily life to be kind to everyone. I have a job at cvs and I am a
cashier and my goal is to make every customer I have laugh to brighten
up their day.
Being creative is something that everyone says is a big part of who
I am. I write poetry and I sing. I am on the choir at church and it is
a hard job to get your voice the way they want it. I sometimes sing
lead because I have a strong voice but I am very shy. I am the same
with poetry I hate reading my poetry out loud because I never seem to
have the voice to have the effect on people that it was made for. I am
very creative but I am shy which holds me back from my full ability to
share my gifts with people who it can touch. I am always making people
laugh and there is never a dull moment when your with me. My friends
come to me when they need a laugh or an up lifting person to talk to.
As I said before my family are some of the most influential people in my life.
They encourage me to be who I am and to after what I want. As of right
now I'm not sure what I want to become. I really feel like I want to try
to be a singer but I not sure. Even thought they know that everyone doesn't make it
as a singer they still are behind me no matter what.

I believe that our country cannot be run without each and every single person
doing their part, whatever their part maybe. In my neighborhood I have a huge
influence on the kids. They look up to me to do my best and teach them to push
themselves. I would like to call myself a big sister because I look out for them
and make it as so they can come to me for anything. Also in my neighborhood I
volunteer at

In conclusion for the question what about me is special is that I am
hard working and willing to work hard to get where I want to go in
life. I am creative and I can quickly make up a good idea and follow
through on it. I am always up lifting people when it comes to personal
or school issues. I am a good person and I try my hardest to stay that
way. I guess you can say I am working hard to become something great
