It has been 17 years of intricate life; A life that is too difficult to explain, and too difficult to understand. In my 17 years of existence, I could definitely say that I had experienced almost all genres of hurtful experiences, even the smallest thing up to the biggest one- my studies, peer pressure, at school, some teachers, love, my family, and even to some extended family members. Perhaps these things have made myself as hard as steel, but just like the steel, even how hard it is, still there is the rust that would make it frail. To give-up is not really in my vocabulary but somehow I am starting to adapt such negative outlook, there came a point in time that I almost gave up, that I almost wasted my life. I started to become neglectful back then and some good opportunities had slipped my hands, I became dependable with my parents, and I never think of anyone except for myself. I indulged myself to different vices, I used to cut classes or even not to attend classes for one whole week, I used to smoke, I used to get drunk to bottles of San Mig Lights and I used to become the black sheep of the family. But even though, I still have my limitations, I didn’t try to use drugs nor try casual sex. I know that I’m a very nice person besides the fact that I’ve committed a lot of mistakes but it’s not yet late to change myself the way that I used to be. Now that I’m nearing to the verge of the last chapter of being a student, I must get serious with my studies, and I shall fulfill the expectations from me. I hope through this essay of mine, I have somehow lightened up your mind and I have somehow served as an inspiration. We’re already in College; before reaching this stage, I know that we are fully-exposed to life’s different endeavors. We have faced a lot of problems, and we will be facing more. We are already half way through so there’s no reason for you not to continue. Just walk to life’s long road, never run but never walk too slow. Just walk with courage and with determination and you’ll surely see that it’s worth every single step.
