My Baptism Ceremony

My baptism was a very important thing to me, it meant that I was letting others know that I had accepted Christ as my savior and became a christian. It was in the December of 2001 that I was saved, or thought I was. I knew the basics about Christianity and that we were supposed to love Jesus and accept him as savior, but those are not the reasons I accepted Christ as young as I did. I accepted him because all of my friends were. It was the summer of my fifth grade year that I really started to realize these things and wanted to be sure that I was saved, because I really did love God and believe he sent his son to die for not just me but for everyone.

Acadimics

Everyone has bridges that they will cross in their life. My bridges I have crossed academically. Surprisingly and thankfully I succeed and do better in school every year. When I was younger I used to get mad at myself for not doing well in school even though I would make A's and B's every year, for the most part. With the exception of, probably only, fifth I have been an A and B student throughout elementary and middle school, which is good. But for me it was and is not good enough I want to do my best, which I know is making all A's in school. This year I met my goal of receiving all A's on my report card and was even in an advanced class. I realized though that making A's all of the time can be a lot of hard work and pressure. But to over come something or cross a bridge we must put forth the effort. Not fifty percent, at least one-hundred percent, but me I will always try to give a hundred and ten percent.
