“Life as a Junior” : A Personal Narrative

          How do you live to a life where everyone is better than you? How do you interact when you have a low self esteem? And how can you spech when everyone that surround is a judge people? Al of that question runs into my mind. I’m thinking that because they are better than me I will never do such things that make me shine. I know that everyone deserve to be in front, be one of the top and one of the outstanding in our class, and because of my mindset I almost didn’t enjoy my life as a junior.

          My life as a Junior High School was very different when I am in Elementary. When we are in elementary we’re just chill and always keep in class, make fun everything and all we know is that we are entering to the school is to play. But my life suddenly changed when I get in High School. I remember when I was on Grade 7, first day of class,  I was nervous and didn’t know what to do, and I am on a higher section. I didn’t expect that because in elementary I just play and mess everything. Math us our subject in that time, my teacher call me to recite and sadly I didn’t know the answer. I almost cry at that time and felt ashame because my teacher told me stand in front and face on the board. I know that this will be a lesson to learn. It was memorable for me  because through of this my mindset change and know what will be the result if i didn’t work on myself and my study.


          Grade 8 days is the most memorable because our adviser is such a good teacher and he is always giving advice and a funny jokes. Being in that grade taught me to don’t be dependent to other people.


          I had friends it is on the grade 9 days, they are the reason why i laugh and almost enjoy my junior life. They are the reason why i cry and for they are the best bestfriend of all. But suddenly it changed, my two bestfriend meet a guy, it is a cause why i left behind. I get cry at that time and didn’t tell to them until now.


          And then when I got into Grade 10, i was happy because my classmate last school year were the same, but in that year level I felt that everyone wants their grade to be higher, be on top and no one was giving each other. And I almost wish that the year would be over right away. For me I felt like alone because I think everyone would judge me and only my friend will treat me as i treat them.


          Everything is important as long you give importance to it. You need to study hard  you can answer what is veing asked in you and treat everything the way you treat yourself, and all of that thing come to my mind and I apply wherever I am. And i always remember that being a judr people will never do anything to yourself and to others.
