Writing Territories

Annoyances: BEING LATE
Accomplishments: Getting into NYLF

Beloved Possessions, Now and Then:  Goloso (then), my sisters (now)
Problems: Motivation

This summer I went to Boston for a leadership Forum. We were broken up into smaller groups for MED Sessions. We were the Williams Group and our "team leader" was Hysem Eldik and the first thing he said to us was: "You're all late. From now on, get here five minutes early. Five minutes early, or you're late." So every morning, we'd be the first to get up and to every event, we'd always be the first to arrive. For most in my group, it took a while getting used to; but for me, I absolutely loved it. Then I came back home. When my parents and sister decide they will be early, then they will be on time. Then and only then will we be on time, otherwise we are late, as usual. So whenever I want to get to school at 7:30, I tell my parents I need to get there at 7:15. Because the worst thing for me to be, is late.
