Comparison and contrast


ALTERNATIVE


When I was 3, life was great. However, life was different back then, not like this generation. When I was a kid, I didn't have problems because all I had to think about was what to play next with my friends, what fun things to do, or what to talk about. I didn't have to worry about everything like I do now. I have to think about every situation, decision, and path to take in the future. When I was a kid, life was easy because all I had to do was wait for the movies, cartoons, toys, and food that I wanted.

It wasn't until I turned 13 to 16 that all the problems started to come up, especially at school. I had to work hard to secure my beautiful future, make my parents proud, and give them a stable life. More than that, I wanted to see the brightest smile on my grandma's face when she saw me graduate from high school and college. When I started at this age, I experienced struggles, sufferings, and things that are hard to explain. Even though I faced a lot of problems, I always promised myself that I would overcome them. I will replace all the hard work that my parents have given me since I was a child. Being a teenager is hard I have to carry the problems that life throws at me and find solutions, but I'm still fighting. It's not like back then when all you had to do was enjoy your day without worrying as much as I do now. Experiencing all these things makes me realize that being a kid was lovely, beautiful, enjoyable, and worry-free. What I have now is different from my childhood I experience everything but still fight to replace the hard work that my family did for me.

Problem to Solution

  On the day of recognition, I didn't feel excited because I was going to see my grades for this semester I felt nervous. When I received my report card, I was disappointed with the results because I didn't get the grade I wanted for this semester it was lower than expected and it broke me to pieces. As it was already the second semester, I was ready to get back on track. I vowed to try my best to understand the discussions and participate, even if my answers were wrong. I asked my classmates if they had notes, and they said yes, so I took pictures and copied them into my notebook to review for the discussions the next day. Despite feeling tired, I was determined to achieve the grade I wanted. During quizzes, I struggled to understand some of the discussions, and when I finished, I found it hard to recall what I had studied earlier. I had to rely on my seatmate for some answers. Although we passed, I still felt disappointed. When I study, I still forget what I studied. It...

 Today, I woke up very early because I had to rush my mother and grandmother to the bus for a check-up in the city. I arrived at school very late, and after discussing it, the teacher decided to group us into five for our research. We were grouped alphabetically and answered some questions. After a few minutes, we had our recess. I went to the school canteen to buy something and noticed that the girls and boys were lined up separately. We stayed in our classroom because we had a visitor. We arranged and cleaned our room, as well as organized our seats into two groups. After class, I went home, ate, charged my phone, and watched some videos on Facebook. As it was getting late, I went upstairs to sleep.
