Assembly

I just wrote two paragraphs and my laptop restarted so now I got to write all over again. Ugh. Anyhow, so the assembly was great!! St. Louis did not just have humor but also was an excellent poet, smart and an intelligent man. What he said reminded me a lot of one of Buddha's saying, "what you think, you become", i was like YES that is absolutely right. I think we even wrote a blog about it. What I found really interesting was that he made up poems on the spot, I couldn't believe it, like how can someone just make something up right on the spot without thinking about it. Also Vanessa did a great job making a poem about the topic door, I realized how talented she was because If I was there, I'd probably refuse to do such a thing front of a big audience. I guess he was right about how people are sometimes afraid to be themselves or to say something because of other people's judgment. When I first came to Canada, I wouldn't ever say anything or participate because I was scared to say something stupid. However, as i grew up and got to know the people around me more, I am less shy. So I guess the message was never be afraid to give out your opinion or talent even if you think it's not the best, because as he said "practice makes things better, not perfect but better". Overall the assembly was great, it all gave us a chance to think about our everyday behavior such as making up excuses and how to overcome those to become successful in life.
