A time where I have faced with a challenge was the beginning of my freshman year at Gahr high school.

    I did not have many friends before simply because I was too scared to try to relate with people mostly because I didn’t believe in people, and that was a mistake. I found out that summer that people are so much more than they appear to be. My crew was made up of a hippy, a hick, a soldier, a nerd (me), and a brainy girl. I learned so much about them and sure, there were some arguments, there were times where I didn’t know if it was going to be okay, but there were more times when I realized just how much i needed and appreciated each of them. During our work, I filled many different roles; I learned from this because the next year I took initiative and filled the role of tuba in the top band at school.

    I may have it harder socially than most people, but I have experiences that nobody else does. It is important to embrace what I have gone through and continuously learn and progress. Allowing a struggle to become an excuse is a way of conceding and being defeated and I think that is the weak thing to do. To brush off what has happened with a smile and embrace new challenges is the strong thing to do and will only increase personal growth. My advice for anybody who will be moving soon to a new place, most likely college, is to keep an open mind and heart to people that they do not know.
