In the nights before this, I had been thinking of ” who was I?” , “Did i change?” and ” who am I ?” in my small single size bed. These question brought up a lot of flashback into my mind. I remember I was once an introvert whom didn’t speak up for himself or assert his opinions and somewhat antisocial when I was in junior high school. It wasn’t a surprise to me if anyone in my class didn’t even know my existence at the end of the semester. But everything changed after I joined into Red Crescent Society about the end of junior high. The activities and training the seniors provided were grueling and meaningful. What I learned from it really turned me over a new leaf. It was like a pair of worn out leather shoes changes into a shiny leather shoes because of a great shoe polish.

Other than that, even though I have changed quite much, I still don’t quite understand myself. I don’t know what my character is. However, one day I stumbled upon a web page about one of my childhood favorite video game, Super Mario Boss. Again, it reminded me of how much i addicted to it before and it was also the leading cause of my shortsightedness. Nonetheless, I found out that I see this game different than how i thought of it when I was a kid. In the game, Mario has a great journey to rescue the princess in distress from Bowser. His journey is tough because of the numerous number of enemies but he also get help from his comrades and his superpowers. In my eyes, I relate the game with reality. There are both advantages and disadvantages in life, I shall use my advantage effectively to overcome and conquer any hindrance lies ahead of me. Therefore, I should appreciate the chances that Baruch give me to improve myself and get rid of my bad attitudes. For example , I am quite a vain person and I always get complacent even though i achieve only a little goal.Besides, since I am considered as a multilingual, i am setting a goal to get into an international organization after I graduate. I will work as hard as possible to accomplish the goal.
