"Take every chance you get in life, because some things only happen ONCE." - Unknown.
For 14 years that I'm existing in this world I always regret the things I let go whenever I got a chance.
When our English teacher, Mr. Meduranda, announce that our school got a chance to have a scholarship from US Embassy, called English Access Micro-Scholarship that will give us a chance to learn more about english like about right grammar, vocabulary etc.
And of course, who wouldn't feel excited about it? So, when we have an exam on it, I really really did my best to passed the exam. After that, Mr. Meduranda said that he will announce the result after a week or two.
And the day that Mr. Meduranda, announced who will passed in the English Access Scholarship, my heart was beating like crazy while I silently praying that I'm one of the students who got passed in the exam. And so on, and so on, some of my friends passed in the exam and I'm proud of them although I'm nervous 'cause I don't know if Mr. Meduranda will call my name. And then, when I heard that he say, "Sheila Mae D. Calma" Oh. My. My. And I think that's one of my eureka moment. My heart stopped. My mind went blank. But it went back to the reality again when one of my friend congratulated me.
And, the first day of our English Access Scholarship was really fun because we had a game, it's called Ice Breaker while we're having fun, we're getting to know each other too. It was really interesting and amazing game 'cause after that we got comfortable to each other. I thought that my first day will be miserable because I'm really nervous about it but it's not. Thanks to Mr. Meduranda and to the cooperation of my co-scholar student in the access.
And after that? I can really say that I learn a lot in the English Access. So from now on, I will do my best and I will always put effort to our activities, and always cooperate to my group mates if we're having group activity.
And I'm really really glad that I trust myself this time, that I take this chance to be part of English Access. So, all I can say it I'm glad I try it. And, I advice to the people who like me, who's afraid to take a risk is don't be afraid. Take a risk, 'cause you will never know it if you never try it. Make the weakness within you as a motivator to move forward, and make you realize that you can do yhings that you never thought can do. So be stronger, fiercer and a man that will always have faith in God! ♥
