Student Creed
As much as I attempt to calm the chaos around me called life,
I can't.
I can only control myself.
However, I have been told countless times that I am
Intelligent, courageous, strong and beautiful
So from this moment on, ever indelible mark I make
Upon myself or my community will embody a piece of me.
This indelible mark will embody intelligence, courageousness,
Strength and beauty because they are what make ME!
