From my point of view, living experiences in general or a simple sentence someone you love told you can make you change and be who you are. Therefore, I think that it’s very important to remember occasionally those personal subjects that define who you are.
Firstly, I want to talk about a story of the past that I use nowadays to continue fighting for my dreams. Well, two teachers I had during my childhood taught me how to be stuck on oneself, to be self-confident and they always supported me in stressful moments. As I am a really perfectionist girl, I like doing things as well as possible but sometimes I am so nervous that I lose control. In this situations, I remember what they told me: “calm down, keep going and we know you will achieve what you have set your mind to.”
My second story is about when my parents and I gave a dog to my brother for his communion. Until that day, I hated dogs and every time I saw one I started crying, shouting and running desperately. I decided to accept the proposal of my parents even though I knew that it would be incredibly difficult to lose the phobia. As a result, nowadays, I love my dog and I haven’t got any fears. Due to this experience, I always try to do things no matter how impossible they seem.
Lastly, my third story is about the summer of 2018. The first week of July of 2018, I started a summer camp and I didn’t know anyone. I went there alone, to have fun and to learn new ways of thinking and looking at life. As a result, I met many guys and last summer we spent a week together in the same holiday camp. In fact, nowadays, they are an essential part of my life! As a result of this experience, I have learned that doing things on my own is marvellous and makes me feel alive.
To conclude, I want to share with you a brilliant sentence a girl I met this year during the summer camp told me: “say I love you every day to whoever deserves it because you never know when it will be the last time you can tell him or her”.
