My teacher had assigned me a difficult assignment. I took one look at it and told myself I wouldnt be able to do it. The assignment was an art project. I was supposed to create a clay sculpture of a dog. But the problem is, I'm not artistic in any way. I didnt want to do the assignment because I knew I would fail it. A few days later in class, everyone was bringing in their clay dogs. They all looked so good. They were showing off their sculptures to everyone else in the classroom. And my teacher was congragulating them. I felt so left out. I was dissapointed in myself for not trying. After school was over, I went home and tried working on my clay dog. It was actually turning out pretty good. Im surprised by how it didnt look all disformed. I brought it to school the next day and everyone was telling me how good it looked. I was so happy and proud of myself for completing the assignment. Next time I receive an art assignment to complete, I'll remember to belive in myself and I'll remember that anything can happen if I put my mind to it.
