Persuasion

  "The greatest mistake you can make in life is to continually be afraid you will make one." - Elbert Hubbard

Last year, I made a big mistake I lied to someone I like, and I didn't realize how much it would hurt her. I didn't know that my actions caused her to cry every night. As days passed, I noticed she distanced herself from me. I tried to ask her, but she always said 'nothing.

 Months later, we fell in love with each other, but during arguments, she would bring up my past mistakes, which became frustrating. Despite explaining my side, she still fears I'll repeat those mistakes. We argue over small things, partly because I often make hurtful mistakes. Eventually, I realized I needed to explain and make her understand my perspective, but she still struggles to trust me due to my past actions. The trust she had in me has been shattered because of that one mistake, and she's afraid it might happen again.

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...

Classification

 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.
