This week went by pretty slowly, and
I feel like I exercised my virtues a bit more than last week. My dauntless
virtue was kind of going up then down at times. For example, my shyness
decreased when I asked questions to teachers, and I was somewhat more open to
them. On the other hand, it decreased slightly because of a language arts
presentation. I was very shy to go up and express how I felt about the
surrealistic piece that I chose, and I think that I stuttered, or blanked out
for what I was going to say. Furthermore, my relaxation virtue did not really
change much because although we did have work to get done, some days were
pretty calm with almost no homework. As for my confidence, for art, at first I did
not like what I was going to draw for the Thanksgiving banner, and I erased
everything. But as I was scrolling through my phone to find some ideas, a
perfect picture came up, and I decided to go with my instinct, and I drew it. I
am very proud of myself for my accomplishments, and hopefully next week will be
better.
Hey, Kate my week also felt pretty long last week which really opened up space to do your virtues as you said. Confidence is a great virtue to work on as it will really get you through all the presentations you will be doing in high school. I think the best advice from to you is that you should just focus on one person, wether its the teacher or your best friend while presenting anything. Well anyways, i hope you're able to keep up with your virtues for the weeks to come!
