说出你的故事

I used to be arrogant and impolite. Rash, simply put. 

When I was young, I had this idea that because I was pretty and cute(pretty conceited, right?), people would like me whatever I did. Of course, I was very wrong, and it hit me pretty hard when one of my best friends turned my other friends against me, based on all of my improper and annoying behaviors. Now that I think of it, it wasn't that much her fault, more the fact that I was being too annoying for acceptance.

So I decided to try and change, becoming more cautious when it came to people. I got the habit of saying "thank you" and "excuse me" as often as possible, and finally gaining the likes of my new friends in junior high, and earning what I have instead of asking for them. 

So if you realize that something is wrong, and if you are willing to change, it will happen. You can do it, even if at first, you may think the damage is too bad to be repaired.

课程总结：

Through this class, I've learned how to express myself better and overall be a more expressive person. I've also made many new friends, and by interacting with them, I've also improved my social skills. Taking this class has been really helpful to me, and I look forward to the next series!

Wow, another ending of a class series. I've been on YouthMBA for four years now, since fifth grade, and this has helped me a lot, especially Evan-san, who taught my first lesson here. I give my sincere thanks to everybody, and thanks for you support! 

Lots of love,

PS: The cover picture is a pic I made! I didn't draw it, but I found it and added the names of my best friends and I. It's something to remind me how much I've grown over the years, and how mature I've gotten over social problems.
