I showed integrity in a tournament when I was going against older and more skilled people that me. I kept

on saying to myself to just try my best and to not be worried. I also thought that if I don't show what I

have worked on then people may think that I was scared so I had to do it. So I went out and strived for my

best, and it showed me that integrity can really make a difference.

My mom has always showed integrity. Even though she is a very busy doctor with four children, she always is putting her patients and family before herself. At the end of the day, she always wants to do the right thing, whether it means another hour at work, or getting home late. She lives her life each day with patience, grace, and only good morals.

I hadn't taken a math test once, and I came into class the day after everyone else had taken it. Everyone was talking about it and probably what answers they got and stuff, but I purposely didn't listen at all, I blocked it all out and waited for my teacher to ask me to go into the hall and take the test. Eventually, they all stopped and I went into the hall and I hadn't heard anything. This showed integrity because I didn't want to hear what people are saying about the test.

This is an example of when I am not demonstrating integrity. When I was at camp we have a thing called a canteen. That's where we get candy after lunch, so almost every time I go to the canteen I always steel candy. Your only supposed to take one candy but I took like two candies.

This is a small thing, but I really am proud of it. About a week ago,  I took a math test where I wasn't allowed to use a calculator. Unfortunately, I did not read the directions beforehand, and I did use a calculator to check a simple equation (think -15 + 24.) After I turned the test in, I looked up and realized my mistake. I then immediately went to the teacher and told her about it—no excuses, just what happened. She did let the error slide, and told me that she was grateful I told her about it. I know it wasn't a huge thing, but it would have really bothered me. I like to be 100% transparent with my schoolwork. It feels better to me to do it the right way once than take a shortcut the wrong way. The little things do add up if you do them enough, and could potentially damage my integrity, and I would like to be viewed as honest.

I remember when a friend of mine was playing around with his friends during class, the teacher saw and chose to give one a demerit. None of them wanted to get a demerit but my friend showed integrity and took the demerit. They didn't lie about who did it and they just told the truth.

My brother showed integrity at a swimming competition when the timers confused his time with another competitors. His time was a better one, so he could have kept it, but he knew that that would be cheating so he went up and got it fixed.

I showed integrity when I told my mom that I spilled nail polish on a rug.  It was hard to see and she probably wouldn't have even noticed it, but I let her know anyways because it was the right thing to do.

This year my friend had band sectionals on a Thursday during her gym period, meaning she had to miss run-day. Of course, she was pleased that she did not have to run. However, her gym teacher put into her grade for that run-day a 100% grade. My friend had integrity and actually confronted her teacher on her grade. She questioned how she could receive a perfect score if she was not there. She did what was right and moral, but not what was easy. But, because she had integrity and did the right thing, the teacher kept the perfect score for my friend and she did not make the run-day up.

Someone that did not demonstrate integrity was a soccer player I know. This soccer player had gotten accepted into Northwestern. He already knew he was going to college, and he stopped trying in high school. On one homework, he didn't do the assignment. He asked one of his friends to copy his homework. He did not demonstrate integrity by not doing his homework, and then cheating. This decision came back to get him when the teacher found out about this incidence, and both students got in trouble.

I demonstrated integrity a couple years ago when my sister and I were home alone and my sister wanted to mess around and do anything that she wanted. One thing she really wanted was chocolate chips. She really wanted them and would always try to sneak around me so that way I wouldn't see because she knew hat I was in charge at that moment. I hated being mean but I had to move the chocolate chips to the top shelf so that way she wouldn't be able to reach it. It might've been mean but at least she didn't get in trouble with our mom!

My brother showed integrity because he has to do AS, and some of his friends also do. When they were discussing it, many of them lied and said that they didn't do it because they were embarrassed, but Owen said that he did it because he didn't want to lie.

My friend went to the women's march in Chicago. She protested for what she thought what was right which was allowing immigrants to come to our country. This definitely showed integrity because she fought for what she believed and she had strong moral principles as well.

At the end of January, I'm sure many people remember the Women's March in Chicago. This was a huge example of integrity because hundreds of thousands of people were standing up for what they believe in: equal rights in women. In fact, integrity can lead to great change for the better.

I know someone who did not demonstrate integrity by cheating on a test. He searched the answers online during a quiz to score 100%. This violated integrity because the dictionary defines it as honesty and virtue. He was not virtuous because he cheated and was dishonest by not taking responsibility for studying and lying to the teacher.

One time my mom and sister where in downtown Chicago. While the were there they saw a boy and his mom. Instead of walking by the walked in to a store. They bought the kid a Kobe Bryant jersey. When they brought it to the mom and the boy she said how happy he was. They gave them 20$ and told them to buy a scoop of ice cream on the hot day.

Over last summer had lost some friends. They were really close to me but one day just decided they didn't like me. All year they have either avoided me or been mean to me. This is them not demonstrating integrity because they aren't show good moral principles.
