Thank you for all of your support, for pushing me to be the best student, athlete, and person that I can be. Although you yell at me for my grades sometimes, I know you are just trying to make to a better student and work harder. I may not appreciate it now, but I am sure I will in the long run. You helped me realize, everything in life isn’t handed to you, and you helped me see that. While I am getting the time to thank you, thank you for putting up with me and my crazy softball life.

I will never be able to repay you for what you do for me!

A positive experience I have had was noticing how hard I can push myself to read a piece of literature that I don’t necessarily want to read. The story we read was very long, and I missed a lot of days that we worked on the story, so I had to catch up. I read and did my work efficiently using time management skills to catch up to the class in a quick amount of
