The Change ( Free Writing )

       Nobody is perfect. Everyone knows that. I admit that I have a lot of bad habits. I am too lazy to clean my room so it is messy all the time. But today I am not going to talk about my bad habits but my personality.
      I used to be a very very shy girl. I didn't like to join people. I was quite afraid of talking to other people let alone chatting. I was not confident, I didn't like myself, either. I thought I was too fat and my skin was so black. I was even not brave enough to look at me in the mirror when people were around me. "How ugly was I !" I complained to God all the time then. I thought everything that happened on me was unfair. "Why other people were all better than me?" "Why they had white skin, good grades, good looking.....but I didn't?" Many many"Why?" were circling in my brain. It was a hard time for me.
      Things seemed to turn better when I was first grade in senior high school. I acquainted with several good friends. They were all kind of interesting and humorous. I thought they were glamorous that I cannot help but attracted by them. I was really surprised that they were willing to talk and make friends with me. I opened my mind gradually. I would find a sense of achievement when I said something funny and they burst out laughing. Because of them, I gained the confidence little by little. Frankly speaking, I indeed left an unforgettable memory in the past three years. They are my benefactors.They had changed me.
    Now I will not be afraid of going to a new place anymore, for I am more courageous to face with every new challenge.
