Topic: Evaluate a significant experience, achievement, risk you have taken, or ethical dilemma you have faced and its impact on you.

Achieving certain things feel really good. Achieving your goals are the best things a person can ever do. It can be short-term goals or it can be long-term goals. Either one the feeling will still feel the same. When achieving goals, there will always be an impact on your life. The impact can be big or it can be small. Impacts from yours goals can also be good or bad. Everyone goes through achievements and having either a bad or good impact. So do I.

I had many goals and achievements as I have been growing up. Most achievements had good impacts and some were bad. But there’s this achievement that I can never forget. That achievement was being able to tell my parents anything without any awkwardness, regrets, and lying. I didn’t really see this as an achievement until I realized that I could tell my parents anything.

I think the only reason how I got to achieve this is because the way I acted when I was a young child. When I was in elementary school, every time something good or bad happened to me, I would always tell my parents no matter what. From doing this as I grew up, I found it habit in telling my parents everything. I could tell my parents school issues, hobby issues, and also girl issues. Life to me was very easy with my parents.

From this magnificent achievement I gained a lot of my parents. I gained knowledge of their life as teens, I gained their trust, and the most significant thing that I gained was a bond I have with my parents. If I was a child who kept everything a secret from my parents, I wouldn’t have gained all of these magnificent things from my parents. This is the best and most memorable achievement I have ever achieved in my life.

Propositional Statement: I think that what Prevedouro's doing about the rail is right because right now is a bad time to be thinking about the rail, Hawaii has a rough economy, and the rail would make it even worse.
