As I look around the classroom, I notice a girl nervously staring around the room. She seems as if she wants to speak to someone, but has not taken the initiative to do so. As she sits there, she plays with her fingers. I come to the conclusion that she is lonely, so I decide to walk over and talk to her. Her facial expression immediately lights up once I start talking to her. She is not lonely anymore. I am always analyzing the situations around me to have a better understanding of my world. I will watch my surroundings and base certain judgments on my intuitive feelings. Doing so has brought me success in my personal and academic life. As I go through life in the upcoming future, I will make the best possible decisions to not only benefit myself, but others as well.
