They bought me a nice new bike and forced me to ride it. I didn't get the hang of it for a long time, but i was forced to keep practicing. Even though i kept on falling my parents told me to never give up, so i just practiced more. I eventually got it and was able to ride it without worry of failure.

How does this connect to the personal theme?

This connects to my personal theme because it does talk about practicing and getting it eventually.]]> 2021-08-16 18:42:18 UTC https://padlet.com/aoconnor61/osc3eln0hn1pl558/wish/1680885426 aoconnor61 https://padlet.com/aoconnor61/osc3eln0hn1pl558/wish/1680885634 There was this test in 3rd grade, it was only a simple English test but i found it very difficult. I did fail that test, and the kid next to me kept saying that if i took it again I'd keep failing. He was right though, which, to this day, makes me a bit frustrated. But that's not the point, the point is that with some extra practice and help from my teacher, I aced it.

How does this connect to the personal theme?

This connects to my theme because it mentions that it only took practicing to succeed.]]> 2021-08-16 18:42:29 UTC https://padlet.com/aoconnor61/osc3eln0hn1pl558/wish/1680885634 aoconnor61 https://padlet.com/aoconnor61/osc3eln0hn1pl558/wish/1680886432 Now, to the present. It's still a bit of a struggle to get from class to class, but I've been able to get the right routes since I've been practicing it everyday. I've been able to get to class on time, or even early, instead of late. I'm getting so speedy at this that some might think it's something like teleportation, and that fact makes me smile a bit inside. 
It took me so long until i realized that, when I practice, I get so much better at what I'm trying to do. Not just with the things I listed, but with life in general.

How does this connect to the personal theme?

It does connect to the personal theme because it continues to explain that practice does in fact, make perfect.]]> 2021-08-16 18:43:08 UTC https://padlet.com/aoconnor61/osc3eln0hn1pl558/wish/1680886432
