Very rarely do I get these m0ments, they are the moments that for some reason stay stuck in my heart and in my mind for years. These moments that I tressure with my life that make me the person that I am today. Moments that give me the grin I get when I recall my life in almost an instant. When I think about who I am as a whole person? Why I chose the path I decided to strive for? Who are my friends and what is the most important things I value. I feel a daze.
Typically, there is no secret that I am introverted and have plenty of time to think about many things, but during my days in summer school of 2006, I had a moment of clarity. I had an all around aspect of what are my goals, what are my dreams, and I acknowledged what are my failures. I obviously failed a couple of classes in high school, but I really thank who ever made summer school a plan b for kids like me. I was taking an aerobics class with Mrs. Holden, one of the main tecahers that I admire, not just because she was a great teacher, but because she was just one of the few greatest people I have ever met. I guess, consider her heroic to my eyes. I would observe the way she carried herself and it really reflected me and who I would like to be when I grew up. So i started then, I join clubs, I tried my hardest to ace every class that I had my self-conciousness went straight to the garbage. So i've let things get in my way in the pass and never had the confidence to even intent to try my hardest because I felt I would fall down and never get up. I fear failure, I fear to stay alone and most importantly I fear leaving this life without ever trying my hardest or without being the best version of me that I could possibly be. My moment of clarity happend that year, when the sun was blazing I had a gallon of water to my reach, I was soaking it in like if I was soaking up my intire life. It happend when I saw the my reflection in Mrs.Holden when I observed her as she opened the doors to the classroom.
