When I was in High School, I was that kid who studies a lot, gets involved in clubs: Varsity Club and Band and sports: Track and Field and Cross Country, and be surrounded by the positives. It can get hard to balance them sometimes because I have a track meet which ends at night like around 10:00 pm or I'll study for a major AP exam like AP Psychology or AP American Government. I usually study for 50-60 minutes, depending on how I feel.I didn't like to create or join a study group because I love studying by myself until college.
In High School, I hate that I wasn't a good reader nor public speaker when I'm presenting or reading out loud. Whenever I'm participating in class if it's reading or presenting, I’m always nervous because I always think to myself that I'm going to get made fun for the way I talk. I have speaking problem which I can't speak very well and I'm not a slow talker.
I've been having speaking problem ever since I was a little kid and I had to take a speech and language class from Elementary school to Middle School.
Whenever I talk to people back in High School, I'll be very shy and hide my teeth because I always think I'm going to get picked on due to my teeth.
During that time, I didn't want to get braces because it's expensive and I don't have a dental insurance with anyone. However I'm planning on getting a dental insurance sometimes next year so I can get braces.
Ever since in college, I’ve changed a lot by improving my speaking skills and getting used to talking to people face to face. Whenever I talk to people, I don't hide my teeth nor get scared.
College changes a lot of people especially me. You're not the same person that you were in High School. You might be that person who get made fun of back in High School, but now you don't. That's why they said watch who you make fun of back in the days because people change.
