a new friend

it seems to me that success has been a friend of mine this past week.
as weird as it might sound, i am the owner of two records in our gym class. well, two tests is how much we have had so far, so i pretty much have killed it! first one was the 100 meter run, which i managed to do in 9.8 seconds. and the other one is the standing board jump - 2.09 meters. in case you are serious about sports, then forget about what you just read, because it probably sounded like a piece of cake to you. but for me - someone who has never taken sports serious - it is quite an achievement.
and then. this week our grades for the 600-word essays were announced. explanation: all 11th graders (around fifty students) had to write an essay in total of six hours at the assembly hall. pretty much a preparation for the final exam in 12th grade. and final exams here are.. it is a big deal! my point is, that somehow.. for real! i do not know how, but somehow my paper got the highest score - 93% - and was said to be the best out of all the fifty. nothing to say here. i guess i... can... write? good for me.
also, i had 3 2-hour presentations this monday. in a row. in english. good thing i pretty much still got it! pretty much..
yes. this is how it has been, and i am glad.

i need to get serious on some things. i need someone to shout " JUST DO IT!" to my face.

i do not publish posts this detailed very often, but  i think the world needs to know when it´s people are doing good.
