I've been using my 'power' of broader learning ability (you know how people say there are different ways that people are best at learning, 3 I think, I tend to learn pretty well from any of the ways) quite good/bad.

During school, I got lazy and since I learned the material pretty well during class, I didn't do much homework unless I needed it or it was interesting. This ended in me getting a worse grade than I could have earned if I wasn't so arrogant.

I've also used my power to put myself and others in a better place. I got a job at a shave ice shack for the summer, and was doing pretty well in my first hour or so. I'm cranking out those snow cones pretty fast and making good conversations with the customers.

Back to the school part, I've got to really pick up my game when school starts up if I want to keep my GPA up. I'm thinking of getting a notebook so I can write down things I can improve on....
