I never tasted triumph in my junior school years. Fed up with my poor performance in school, my father desperately admitted me to a boarding school when I was in 6th grade. Though, in this school, I suffered numerous humiliations from my elders, false convictions and punishments that I didnt deserve, I got the opportunity to decide what I want from my life: An uneducated life free of worries but devoid of an identity and respect or an educated life full of hardships but with an identity and honor. I wanted to improve.
I changed my school. To focus more on my academics, I stopped going out with my friends. At times, I went through tough situations like walking 4kms on foot due to long traffic jams, staying up late cold nights trying to complete my assignments on time, the desire for improvement and to be the best, always made me keep going. During holidays, I would meet my teachers. During spare time, I would practice maths. Striving hard, persisting to excel and with my determination, I finally tasted victory in my academics when on July,2006 the school awarded me the honor of distinction holders. I was praised by my teachers, family and friends.
The success inspired me to do even better. In my upcoming years, I participated in different games, received academic scholarships, volunteered in social and community services. I took part in class discussions and presentations and also made good impressions in my teachers.
Today, I consider myself more as successful student than a helpless student because today I have friends who trust me, teachers who care about me, the awards i won make me realize about my potential and these are the accomplishments that, today, make me feel successful, proud and a distinct person.
