My Worst Argument

I've had a lot of arguments in my life but I have to say the worst one I've ever had was with my sister. So one night my mom brought home dinner because she had to go somewhere and she couldn't cook for us. My sister asked for chocolate chip cookies and my mom go them for her. So I asked my sister if I could have one and she said no. However I was really determined to get that Cookie, so when my sister left the dining room and I decided to grab a cookie hoping she wouldn't notice. Unfortunately she noticed, so I ran into my room and she was furious with me. She unlocked the door and she grabbed the cookie out of my hand. Then she started hitting me she punched my stomach and she puounded my head against the wall so many times. Then she grabbed chocolate from the cookie and smeared it all over my face. I was really mad about that because I thought it was really uncalled for, I understand that I shouldn't have taken the cookie in the first place but that didn't mean she had to do all of that. So then I ran out of my room trying to comprehend why she just did that and punched her arm really hard, I was so tired that 30 minutes later I fell asleep. The next morning I woke up with a gigantic bruise on my stomach and it hurt so bad. Something that I learned from this argument is probably that I shouldn't take things without permission, so from now on I won't especially from my sister.

Fake it until you Become it

There's not really a lot that I can say I'm confident about which is something that I'd really like to work on. I have a lot of insecurities that I would want to overcome, and I could fake it until I become it to help me. I tend to have a really low self esteem so one thing I could do to make it better is have a better posture because I tend to slouch. I also dont really participate in class that often because I'm scared that my answers will always be inadequate so that's something I'd like to fix. I could raise my hand in class to questions that I do know the answer to and eventually participate more. There are a lot of things I wish I could fix and I reall am gonna try faking it because one day I really wish to become it, I think it would be a really important thing to fix in my life.

Winter Break

Over winter break something kind and thoughtful that I did was help my mom cook for Christmas and help her clean afterwards. Over the break my mom decided to go all out and cook for my family, and I decided to help her. I think it was really kind that I helped her because there was this one specific thing that we cooked and those are tamales. However these were different types of tamales, they were Guatemalan styled tamales. Those take forever to cook because it's cooked differently then regular tamales. They take about 3-4 hours to cook but in the end it's worth it because they taste really good. Since my mom cooked a lot so it was obvious that the kitchen was gonna be a mess. So once my mom was done cooking everything my sisters and I helped clean up the kitchen. We were able to clean it up in about 45 minutes. Then once everything was done we all enjoyed the food that my mom made and overall we had a really good Christmas dinner.
