When I walk out that door, I want to be amazing. I want to go forth and conquer the world. It sounds ridiculous and maybe a tad bit impossible. Really, I just want to make a difference in at least one person's life. Just one. Really, that is all that matters. If I can be positive, think clearly, treat others with kindness and gentleness. Maybe, just maybe, I can change their life. Maybe I can make them feel better after receiving bad news, maybe it will make them smile. Maybe they will feel important. Maybe it will save a life. Maybe I will make a new friend. That one new friend could turn into a best friend. Having a best friend could change their life, change my life. If the friendship lasts, then who knows where we could end up? We could die together at our ripe old age, racing wheelchairs in a nursing home and giggling over hot male nurses.

What I do not want to happen is failure. Failure in myself and failure in others. I don't want to hurt others. I don't want to intentionally hurt feelings, squash dreams, or put others down. I don't want someone to fail, because others expected them to fail. I don't want someone to fail, because they were hurt by their peers. I do not want to walk out the door and see my peers turn to life of crime. I don't want to see my classmates walk out the door with me only to never walk out the door again, because they dropped out. I want my classmates to succeed and reach their full potential, just as I am striving for the same.
