two years, I have changed a lot for the better. I have changed in my appearance, I have grown taller and prettier, but most of all, I have changed inside. I became more serious and trustworthy. The

point I can admit is that I started thinking about my relationships and how I can help my parents more. My mom used to make me clean around, but now I do it voluntarily. When we go shopping, I carry all the bags.
Moreover

Secondly

, now I think a lot about what it means to "be a wonderful friend" and what I can do for my friends. Once my friend Alex was supposed to cook dinner, but she was snowed under with other duties, so I stepped in to help her.

Now I am a different person in a good way and I am very proud of it.
