I could really see how I was a blue by how I dealt with my girlfriend's issues. This guy that likes her is giving her a hard time. My initial reaction would've been to just tell him to leave her alone and try to keep the peace, but I had to make a conscious effort to actually confront him and and to not be so sheepish about the situation. A way that I noticed the green part of my personality is how much I've been enjoying my Biology class compared to the rest of my classes. I love learning about nature and sciences are always my favorite subjects. In fact, reading my biology textbook is the first time I've actually sat down and read a textbook out of simply interest in the material.

The Top Five Values for Me:

1. Personal Growth:
   I have been obsessed with personal growth probably since I started high school. I'm in love with the idea that I can always improve something about myself whether it be physically, mentally, emotionally or any other aspect. The last year I went from weighing 230 lbs to now about 165 lbs. I did this due to my desire to be better. I also am always reading articles on how to improve how to develope into a better man, or how I can better treat others. I view these articles as upgrades that I can apply to my life to be a better version of me.

2. Adventure:
 I attribute my desire for adventure to how boring my suburban life for 18 years has been. I always view it as a treat to go somewhere new and experience new things. Hiking is my favorite hobby because I find it to be so fun to get out and see what nature has to offer. Some people are content with having lazy days where they are laying around with their dog watching Netflix, but not me. I always need to be going out and doing something new and I love new opportunities. 

3. Friendship:
   I view friendship very highly on my list of values. Having friends is something I have always needed in my life. I understand that I need to not rely on friendship too much because people are temporary and come and go in life, but with my friends I become attached very easily and I like to spend most of my time with them. Also, I don't like having a lot of friends. I would rather have a few really close friends than have many not so close friends.

4. Loyalty
   Loyalty ties into my high value of friendship. Loyalty is something that has lately, in my opinion, become less valued. In our society people value opportunity higher than loyalty, and I hate that. I believe that if you really love someone or something you should stick with them/it no matter what. Circumstances shouldn't waver your relationship with someone if you really value the relationship.

5. Honesty
I love honesty. Honesty something that I need in my life because I hate living in delusion I need reality. I heard a quote in english class this week that really stuck with me, "It is better to be honest and sound crazy, than to be dishonest and sound sane." I really like this because if someone is being honest with me but it hurts I can deal with what is true and maybe fix what is going on, but if someone is lying then you can't understand what is going on in their head and someone ends up hurt]]> 2017-08-24 16:13:43 UTC https://padlet.com/bulldogbooth/tmva1bty14tu/wish/182615328
