I believe in myself
When I am a kid, I am very shy and scare everything. In school, I scare to bully by friends or older children. In my home, I always take care everything and scare my parents upset. So I always do everything that my parents want from me. Although these were not what I like to do, I even do because my parents want. Until I went to university, everything changed. I arrived and lived only me in Saigon city. Everything was so difficult for me when I made decisions anything. I could not believe in myself, but I had to do because my parents and my relationship could not help me in the moment. Only me had to look for harbourage, road to school, supermarket, ... Everything was so new with me. I worried and fear so much. If I do not make up one's mind in my life, nobody can make. I thought whoever even have a lot of wrong decisions in their life. But if they believe in themself, they know their mistakes and edit them, they will successful. I believe that in order to be happy and successful in life, I must believe in myself. I think to develop in life we must take chances and believe we can be successful.

Journal 10_ About Myself
Hello students,
This would be your last blog for the semester. You had begun the semester by writing about yourself, Now I would like you to end the semester by writing something about yourself. It is very easy to pick out our weaknesses (shortcomings); however, it is not very easy to reflect on what we like about ourselves. For this blog, please do some self-reflection and make a list of all the good things about yourself. Do not rush this work. Take your time and write all that you like about yourself. Then put the points you listed in a paragraph form. Please elaborate on each of the points and explain why you like a certain quality that you possess. You may give examples from your life or opinion of others about that personality trait in you. Each one of us is special, and we would like to know about each other. Please reply to your classmates and appreciate and encourage each other. This blog is due on Thursday, May 4th.
