This is my life

My brother left his bike outside which got stolen. However to hide this, he lied and got in huge trouble. Although my father rarely got angered, lying went strictly against his beliefs, and therefore, it still goes against mine.

After coming to America, our family started going to church. It is fairly a big part of my life now. It has shaped my values and my morals. I'm a better person after going to church than before I went.

In 5th Grade, I was elected as the Vice President of my elementary schools. My leadership skills and my speaking skills increased greatly thanks to that event.

I started involving myself with bad company. We acted stupid and did stupid things. It ruined my values for awhile until we separated our own ways.

I passed the test and made it into Oxford Academy. I met many new friends who changed who I am. I am glad to be here.
