This I Believe: Life Lessons The summer going into my freshmen year‚ I was more nervous to go to school than I was on my first day of kindergarten. Being so much younger than the seniors at our school was going to be scary. I had no idea what people were talking about when they said that these four years would be some of the best four years of my life and I did not believe them. I remember one day specifically‚ about a week before my new high school experience started. I was talking with a couple

This I Believe I believe in an idea that I once learned from my grandfather‚ an idea that emphasizes you to do what you love in life and to be with the people you love. He taught me to live each day to the fullest. Although I can vaguely remember my father’s father‚ I will never forget his love of life‚ his appreciation of all the things he had‚ or the way he would come home and have dinner with his family every night. These are the things my father tends to remember my grandfather by‚ but

I believe hard work pays off. My precious parents taught me that belief. I commenced to go farming with my parents in the lazy‚ hazy summertime.Every day in the early morning my dad would intentionally wake me up everyday at six o’clock. Waking up in the morning always happened to occur like this‚ my aquarium blue curtain hadn’t been tie up yet‚ my alarm hadn’t rung yet‚ and my older sisters hadn’t woke up yet.Surprisingly‚ yes‚ that is my daily routine. It kills me because I’ve spending my good

I Believe in Choker Necklaces I believe in choker necklaces. You might be wondering why‚ strange concept‚ isn’t it? But it’s simple. I once had a different point of view also‚ I thought it was too bold‚ maybe I’d be seen differently‚ but today I’ve found a different light. I wear one almost everyday‚ It could be known as my signature‚ or to some just an untasteful piece of plastic. But to me it’s more than all of the assumptions and judgements. It’s not just a necklace‚ it’s a bold representation

On a bright spring day in 2015 I awoke to my alarm clock playing “I believe” by Nikki Yanofsky. Awaking to my alarm clock playing this song on a bright spring morning‚ five years after the 2010 winter olympic games brought me chills. The 2010 winter olympic games was a time of bright smiles and creating everlasting memories. Similarly‚ this song holds great importance in my life as it reminded me of how families from different ethnicities came together on the streets of downtown Vancouver to celebrate

I BELIEVE THAT CATALONIA SHOULD BE AN INDEPENDENT STATE The world should now that there’s a region that is trying to decide its future democratically‚ the world should know that 1‚5 million people went to the street last year to claim the freedom of their country‚ the world should know that this year more than 2 million people came back to the street and made a human chain from the north to the south of Catalonia to show everybody that‚ peacefully and respectfully‚ we will not stop fighting

I believe that people should take pride in what they do‚ even if it is scorned or misunderstood by the public at large. I have been a professional skateboarder for 24 years. For much of that time‚ the activity that paid my rent and gave me my greatest joy was tagged with many labels‚ most of which were ugly. It was a kids’ fad‚ a waste of time‚ a dangerous pursuit‚ a crime. When I was about 17‚ three years after I turned pro‚ my high school "careers" teacher scolded me in front of the entire

you out greatly and improve your chances against a harsh job market. I am majoring in Business Administration and Law‚ and communication is one of the biggest parts of business and law‚ yet communication is hardly ever taught in business classes for my major. I think that a communications class like public speaking‚ for example‚ should be not just for a college class‚ but taught in high school and middle school as well. I believe several classes would allow anyone to become an expert speaking. The
