Blog entry no. 9

Mirror Image

When I look in the mirror I see a person that isn’t afraid to face tough situations because of the tough situations I have already been through. Looking in the mirror I see more than just physical appearance, I can also see my personality. I am a personable outgoing girl who can look at most situations and find something good that came out of it. If I could change my physical appearance I would make my eyes blue again and my hair blonde again. As a little girl I had blonde hair and blue eyes but they slowly started changing to brown hair and gold eyes. If I could change anything in my personality it would be my ability to talk to any person I just met no matter what their personality is. I find now that if I don’t click with a person right away I always have trouble talking to them. I would love to just meet a person and be able to talk about whatever I feel without feeling stupid or like they don’t understand me. I am comfortable with who I am, but I think there is always something, that if we had the opportunity to, we would change. I think for the most part others see me the same way I see myself, but sometimes I think I seem a little less outgoing than I really am. I hide tough situations behind a smile that I carry on my face everyday, because the way I see life is, if you can’t go through life smiling and having a good time then why live?

Dear Anna,

I really liked when you wrote "When I look in the mirror I see a person that isn’t afraid to face tough situations because of the tough situations I have already been through." because to me, I can't tell that you went through something hard in your life. Honestly, I think that you have great writing skills. Keep writing, and who knows what will happen in the future.

Dear Anna,

I really liked when you wrote "I am a personable outgoing girl who can look at most situations and find something good that came out of it" because most people look at situations and only pick out the negative things. Our world would be very negative and boring if we didn't have people like you that look at things with a positive attitude. I also liked when you said that you hide tough situations behind a smile you carry on your face everyday. I think the world would be a much happier place if more people would just smile even though they may be going through a rough time in their life.
