Greetings! It's heartsstarssmiles! Okay, so, we were working (alliteration!) on writing persuasive essays in English. Class. On my first one, which was a rough draft, we were peer grading the counterargument. I got good comments! =D
But for my next one, uh...We were supposed to give three reasons as to why we're on whichever side we're on. We got many topics to choose from. I, wanting to go the extra mile, wrote about 10-15. I got one good comment (to the person who wrote that: thank you!).
But I decided to go with my gut, because I knew that my reasons were legitimate. Not saying they're right, just authentic, genuine. I felt happier and happier as I typed each word of the essay to turn it in. Today, we got the essays back, and guess what. I got an A+!
What I'm saying is that, while you shouldn't let criticism knock you down (the whole purpose is to bring you up), if you believe strong enough in what you're doing, go ahead and do it! You have to take risks! I'm not saying you should take extremely dangerous risks, but you can't always be safe.
Follow your dreams! You can never go wrong with that! =D
