Still do I have to buckle down to some assignments. So I better go the extra mile. You know, stoicism not always keeps you calm when it comes to school work. However, I cannot renege on the promise I made to myself. I will finish this program come what may. Maybe in the past I let myself manipulate by ill-intentioned people not to what I wanted. That was due to the fact that I was ingenuous and insecure. Notwithstanding, nothing will preclude me from achieving my goals now. I´ve got the momentum I need. My friends can attest to that. Moreover, I know that I´ve recovered from having my confidence ravaged by bitter experiences. Even though, I wasted some time unwillingly, I still learned at least a bit from each one of those shitty situations I had to overcome. On the other hand, sometimes I think that "some" American and Canadian opinions do us "Latinos" a disservice. I know the aforesaid comment may sound offensive. Nonetheless, that is what I believe. Besides, as I said it does not apply to every one of them. I understand there have been lots of cases of illegal immigrants going to North America. Those cases can even be related to my own country. Since Lima is the only city in Peru where one can get a somewhat decent education, people especially from the highlands migrate to there. What I resent is the fact that according to some, all Latinos have the faults they find in the ones they see. Not all of us are the same. Not only does it count each individual educational background, but also the way they were raised. Further, just like with any other race, there is not such thing as superior or inferior. Many altercations have arisen due to people's ignorance and stupidity. Just to clarify, I was not talking about nationalities in the aforementioned remark. Unreasonable people exist all over the world. In addition, when I start writing, words don't exactly spill out. Although, I am always hot to trot regarding imagining what to say. Anyhow, If I were to think up a summation of all my achievements so far, I would say this: No matter how I've done it, I have sowed the seeds of my own success. Be that as it may, there is still a lot to be done. Thus, before I end up pushing up daisies, I'm planning to make the most of life. Lastly, I'd say I cannot believe how to time goes by this quick. By this July, I'm going to have been in school for a year and a half; and I'm planning on staying all the way.
