My roomate and I face challenges each day, but somehow we get through the challenges. My roomate is also from San Francisco and we have very similar characteristics. We also respect each other and their space. we ask each other before we even touch any of each others property. If one person wants to sleep, i will move into the other room and be very quiet so he can sleep.

My values will help me get through college because i understand how hard it is to pay for anything these days. I worked at Safeway for a while, it was not an easy job. School is very expensive and i understand what my parents do for me to be successful in college. School is very important because school will help you network and learn very important necessities to achieve in the real world.

If i were to talk to a student in high school and give them advice of the importance of setting goals, planning and monitoring progress in college, I would tell them that you really need to balance their time. Time management is very important because most of the work in college is done outside of the class unlike high school. A goal is also needed to be able to reach for and get when you graduate college.

Responsibility for my Success and failures are a work in progress. When I am very successful i tend to fall behind because i believe that i am ahead so i stop doing work. When i fail, I can be determined to fix the grade but then again I feel like i can just make it up later which doesn't work in college. I need to work on my responsibility on success and Failures.

I do know a person who has very low self esteem. I believe they should think of somthing there good at or change their idea of what people think of them. If you believe that people like you then it will happen, but if they still dont like you, just dont care about what other people say about you.
