I've realized

That I am intelligent, & i am going to be something someday. I recently did a speech about fashion in the 1920's, and got SO many complements on how great it was. I had people who weren't even in that class listening to it, say that they heard that mine was awesome. My confidence level just rose times a million. & It hasn't exactly been high lately. I was discouraged about what I wanted to with my life, because I felt dumb. People rubbing their grades in my face didn't exactly help. Like, uhm, unless I ask you I don't want to know. But thanks to talking to my boy & getting all of those complements, I feel so good about myself & it encourages me to do even better the next time in everything.
