Proud of myself

Hey!
So I've been going to college classes since the last time I wrote and it's been real hard but I think I could do this.
We had an essay to write for art history the other day and I, out of my entire class got the highest grade!! A+!! I don't think I've ever been so proud! Like I've never gotten such a wonderful grade! My professor said it was because I wrote my paper on one of my favorite pieces of art and I actually took my time to actually find the artist and interview her! When she allowed me to I felt so honored I didn't even know what to say! What really got me extra points was that I was honest and I explained every feeling I had on the matter. Many people just picked any piece of art and they didn't even like it but I loved mine incredible and I though it was inspirational and the story to the picture was very beautiful.
Then yesterday we went on a trip to this organization called project U.S.E. and it was probably the most amazing thing I have ever done!
So the trip was in NJ and it was in the wilderness and that's what I really loved about it! Every thing was so beautiful and bright with color and amazing and I don't think that many people appreciated the forrest as much as me. My favorite thing that we did was climb up this really high tree and we had to cross this sort of bridge like thing and we had to do this entire thing while we were 50 feet in the air. I know, scary right? I was so scared I think I could of died right then and there but Andy (a worker from project U.S.E. ) was saying the most motivational things that in the end I actually did it and I am still so proud of myself! I just can't believe I was so brave and it was exhilarating to be so high up! I wish I had looked down though because if I had I think That I would of felt even better. Although I didn't completely conquer my fear of heights, I took a big step forward
After that I feel like a different person. Like I feel like I could do anything in the world and that I could be someone huge and successful because it doesnt matter if i fall bacause all i have to do is pick myself up again and try again. I just feel like I could fly and my new friends are so supportive that I'm positive that they will catch me if I do.
"I am the master of my fate I am; the captain of my soul" (I'm not even sure if I said that write. )
