Criticism. I've been told about a million times that I can't take it! It is true or my mom and sister won't constantly tell me the same thing! It drives me completely mental! I hate being told my work isn't good enough or I have no sense of humour; that I can't laugh at myself... The list goes on and on! I know that I must learn how to take criticism because I want to be a journalist and a novelist and I'm going to face a ton of criticism before achieving any success. I have to learn how to take it in a positive way, to learn how to improve myself and be able to survive any hindrance and look at it as a stepping stone! But what to do? I have a terrible temper that I try so hard to control but to no avail! I know that it isn't an excuse and I should learn from my mistakes, its easier said than done! My mom hopes that I will one day grow out of it and this is just a side effect of me being a teenager. But I know that unless I work at it, I'm never going to change! I mean, who wants to deal with someone who loses her temper every two seconds? I'd honestly run in the opposite direction. No one will want to be friends with such a person. So, today I promise myself that I will become a better person. Cheesy, I know! But I'm me and I always will be!
