The Truth …

Saturday, May 6, 2017, few days until the greatest adventure of our lives yet. I can not believe that this is my senior year at the University of Oregon. Last year most of us were still struggling with Gateway, and now were are on our way to New York. This is crazy.Today, when I think about everything that happened to me, and feel blessed and thankful to be part of the bubble is talented people that are going to this trip.

I should be very excited and happy but truth is I’m scared.

Yes scared because I don not think that I’m talented enough to be there I mean look at everyone’s book, has barely anything.

I’m scared that I would be able to do well and not sure if anyone feels the same thing but at least know that you are not the only one.

But then I think back and I realize that I was chosen to be part of this for a reason and I must trust myself to be confident enough in order to not only do the best work I can but also to be me, myself , and I because I have always been whom I am and that the thing that makes me special.

It is really easy to focus on the negative things that happen in your life but always keeps in mind that has long as you are alive, you can walk, breathe, talk, and see the people you love the most.

YOU ARE A WINNER!!!
