I have changed a lot from last year. My interests are no longer the same, as I have changed what I like to do. Instead of enjoying baseball, I've become more interested in computer programming, and coding. I used to dream of having a good life, with a nice house, and a well-paying job. That has also changed. Now, I wish to be a good person, that is caring, always listens, and does what they are supposed to do. I used to enjoy leading everything. However, I decided that I'm not ready to become a leader. I'm not very confident, and my leadership skills are terrible. I’ve made many choices, or should I say, mistakes in my life. I made many mistakes, and I always took them as a sign of weakness, and that I wasn’t ready. However, now, near the end of the school year, I realized, that’s not true. Mistakes are lessons. We learn from the things we messed up on, and ensure that it doesn’t happen again. I’ve learned so much over the years, far more valuable than simple math lessons. I learned about life. The true meaning of it, too. The real meaning of life is to strive to become a great person, helping others, while helping yourself at the same time, too. That’s the meaning of my life, at least. However, this is actually one of my weaknesses. Sometimes, I am far too kind, and I basically allow people to control me. I do whatever it takes to make somebody happy, and that’s not a good habit. I’ve gotten so mature, and I’ve been able to control my emotions more, whereas before, I had no control over them. I am truly happy that I’ve learned so much, and I won’t forget how this school year was actually above-average for once.
