Respiration In Life And My Inspirations In My Life

Decent Essays

I have quite a few inspirations in my life including my friends, my family, and my clubs. They all have inspired me to be who I am today and who I want to be in the future. They give me a reason to work how hard I work and to dream what I dream. My friends and my relationship with them really affects how I do in school. I have trouble working in school when I feel alone and don’t have friends. It caused my grades to drop badly when I moved going into ninth grade. It has also happened before when I was in late elementary school. My friends also help challenge me in many ways. At school I always had at least one friend who would have high scores on tests that were always around mine, and we would both always strive to beat the other. I became the best student in my French class in both seventh and eighth grade because I had someone in there that would challenge me. Whenever we would play partner games we would get another partner and try to get a perfect score while doing it faster than the other. I would stay up at night to study so I could beat my friends. When others compete against me I feel as if I had to beat them, so I spend a lot of time studying to beat them. My family has always encouraged me to be my best and to do the best in my grade. Everyone in my family has very competitive personalities, making it hard for us to get close. Because my mom has such high expectations for all of us, we really spend the majority of our time trying to be better than each other.
