Best Advice I Have Ever Gotten

By Anonymous -
     I'm not going to lie, in my life I have needed a lot of advice and help to get myself together. This year alone was one of the years that I have gotten the most advice. Reason being, I'm going through a lot and this is my year to change. This is my last year in middle school, so I really have to start thinking about my future right about now. The best advice I've gotten for myself is to not try for someone who is not willing to actually try for me. I'm one of those people who really don't give up on many people, and I try my hardest to fix something that is broken, then I realize I'm the only one trying, but I don't stop trying. That's one of the reasons I've been hurt so much. I realized that, and finally took that advice. If I were to look back, and compare myself from the past to now, the difference is so big. It might sound cliche, but I don't think I would have been able to do it with the support my friends gave me. Of course I'm going to still care for people, and of course I will try if I see that someone else is trying, but if I'm the only one putting in the effort then I need to start putting myself first, and if anyone else is like that, take this advice and help yourself.

The Greatest Risk, is Not Taking One

By Anonymous -

     The title of this blog, is one of my favorite quotes. Once I read it, I sat down and just took a minute to analyze it. I knew from the moment I read it, that I would really relate to it. There are moments in everyone's life, where they question whether to do something or not. I know I do. For me, I'm more of a shy person, so I don't take the risk. Yet, I always wonder what would have happened if I had actually taken that risk. I will always regret not taking the risks in the past, because what if it could have changed my life in a completely different way? You see, taking a risk is something you should always do. If it is something you might be so scared of, take a moment, and look at the pros and cons. That's what I do. In the end, I always look at the cons even though there might have been more pros. I always find a way or a reason on NOT to do something, don't be like me. If I learned to take a risk, so should you.

Beginning of the End

     Over the past three years, I've really grown fond of heritage. Of course sometimes I hate having to wake up and go to school, but who doesn't? In the end, I'm grateful for all the opportunities heritage has given me. It's the beginning of May, meaning my middle school years are almost over. Part of me can't be more excited for the next chapter of my life. Then again, another part of me is more scared than ever to move onto the next part of my life. I'm basically one step closer to being out there in the world all by myself. I can't wait for that, and I want that to happen. I also kind of want to stay a kid forever though. There are two sides of this situation. One side wants to hide from the future, and the other side can't be more excited for the future.      This year has honestly been the year that changed me the most. It's made me stronger, more open-minded, and I've gotten more organized. I've been better with time management, whic...

Perseverance

By Anonymous -
      Now that we have summit, school has been so much harder. These focus areas piling on top of each other, it's like never ending. Summit has been very tough because, #1, I'm still getting used to the whole new platform, and #2, these focus areas need time and thought put into them, and it takes more than a day or two to get most of them done. I persevered because this is my education, and even though it is hard I'm not going to just give up. Of course I needed patience though, because to be able to have go preserve through something like this, you do need patience to get it done and tolerance to failure as well, because failure with this is not uncommon.      Some traits Nick Vujicic has is self-confidence, courage, and of course perseverance. How he had self confidence is because he doesn't let what other people effect the way he sees himself, and he also doesn't hide himself. He actually goes out. He also respects himself enough to not let anyon...
