Good morning

Recently I'm listening to the audio-book "The 7 habits of highly effective people". It's life-changing. I heard of this book a long time ago, but didn't pick it up. I thought it will be like very boring dogmas. telling you should do this should do that so that you'll be successful. It is not. This book is about transforming your mindset. To see things differently. think differently and react differently.

Oh! Also!
I went to the writing center with Alyssa yesterday. and we were working on one of the essays I wrote for my English class. Kat said it's very good and the recommend me to publish it to "Lexington Review" (our school's newspaper) When Alyssa read my essay she said "wow this is really good! No wonder she (Kat) wants this to be publish!" 

I was so happy and overwhelmed. It means a lot to me. My writing skill reached another milestone. haha!
