I've learned a skill. Last year, I became the president of my college, and I wanted to learn how to be a leader. It was difficult at first because I thought that no one would understand me and that no one would try to be friends with me or listen to what I said. I started to be kind to the other people because I was a third-year student. I was about to graduate that year, and I began to become friends with teachers, and they allowed me to become president. Not everyone agreed with that, but I became the president. I gathered people around me, starting with my friends. They were always there for me, helping me with everything, and whenever I failed, they tried to help me figure out what I messed up. That skill is very important for me because in the future, when I become a student in university or pursue a master's degree, this skill of leadership will help me a lot.
