1) It was my junior year in high school. Sitting in the middle of my government class, my teacher asked everyone that has a dog to name the type of breed it is. As I thought to myself, someone will probably have a negative comment about the type of breed my dog is, as so many people do. Surrounded by my friends and classmate it was my turn to announce to the class on what type of dog I had. "I have a American Pit Bull Terrier". My teacher looks at me in the face and says "when I was a child my neighbor was killed at only the age of 4 because of a pit bull. No matter what people say pit bulls usually always turn against their owners." Then the whole class had to say their negative comments and ask stupid question like "why do you a dog like that," "do you know they can kill people." I am so overwhelmed that this has just turned into a negative conversation. Also I feel that my classmate are judging me because of the breed of my dog. The comments are so disrespectful because they don't know my dog or how it acts, its my choice that I have this dog. If you have a negative or disrespectful opinion don't say it at all.

My teacher then tells the class "when I was a child my neighbor who was only 4 years old was killed by their pit bull but not all pit bull are the same." After that the rest of the class went on and announced what type of dogs they had. I am so glad that no one made any negative comments and that my teacher respected me enough to say that not all pit bulls are the same.

Journal Entry 16
1) A list of my successes I have created in life. My most recent success is enrolling into college because I thought I would never make it to college. Graduating from high school also passing the Oaks reading and math test to be able to graduate. Getting my drivers permit to drive, and learning how to drive. Being elected for student council three years in a roll in middle school gave me the chance to open up.
2) My personal list of skills and talents. I always have a positive attitude and always bring the positive things in negative situations. Good communication skills I'm always there to listen. I'm a very social person and I'm good at meeting new people at social gatherings. I am the best at planning gatherings, birthday parties or small trips. I'm always very creative in decorating, fashion, arts and crafts.
3) Being completely afraid of heights I walked up the Astoria lighthouse column. It was really pretty when I made it to the top, so the facing the fear was worth it. Entering college really put out of comfort zone being so used to high school. The first day was hard but as the days past it has become a lot easier, and I'm glad that I am continuing knowing that it will bring me great success.
4) At this moment I feel when ever I talk to someone about what I want to do in the future, they always tell me the negative and that its going to be difficult instead of giving me positive feed back. I want to become a dental hygienist and I know that it is going to be a lot of work, but with people not supporting me its going to be even harder. So many people say that maybe I should just be a dental assistant its a lot easier. So I have been resisting to continue on my dream thinking that I wont be able to achieve in what I want because its going to be to hard.
5) As I'm sitting at work wearing my blues scrubs thinking about how fair I have come to be in position that I am in today. I cant be anything else but be happy for myself in achieving what I have always wanted. I can smell and taste the mouth wash in the air as I hear the doctor ask for some assistance with the teeth cleaning. The feel of a patient tooth bush against my finger gives me a jolt of success.Seeing a child's face after a teeth cleaning when they get to choose their prize out of the gift box, I know that I have succeed in my career dream.

victim vs. creator
At the beginning of last year I thought that I was not going to graduate. As everybody completed their requirements I hadn't even started to complete them. I was blaming all my teachers for not given me the time to finish. I just blamed one teach particularly because she assigned way to much things at one time. Like giving us one day to write a twenty minute speech. Then I started to think that I as just not smart enough to get the work done on time or to do it correctly.
For this term and my college experience I will use my inner guide to make it through the hard times. I plan on using the creator mindset by giving myself multiply options to take effective actions to achieve what I want. I will accept what I did wrong to make the situation perfect. Accepting the personal responsibility on studying and doing my work to get good grades. In situations that I think is getting difficult, I will let my inner guide take over and tell myself that I can and I will do what ever it takes to go forward.

self-talk
My negative self-talk in my classes is telling myself that i'm not smart enough to succeed in getting good grades or passing a class. I have alwasys had a negative self-talk that has to do with school work. Instead of telling myself that im going to fail I will tell myself that I will pass. I will take it in counter to study and improve my grades. To make sure that I will achieve in getting good grades, I will take the time to study and make planes to work on my study skills. I am capable in achieveing good grades in class and passing.
