1. I can rely on myself. As weak as I feel, this is the hardest thing I’ll ever do. I never imagined that I’d make it this far.

2. I love to cook. We have a “cooking project” every other week, and I really enjoy prepping food. Ironic, I know. It makes me feel good, and I’m good at it.

3. I’m a good listener. I’ve been told by several people that I’ve given them great advice while I’ve been here. That’s something to be proud of, I guess! 

Decided to do this as a positive thing I can do for myself. I’m learning a lot about what kind of a person I am here, and I’m trying to be as positive as I can so maybe I actually start liking myself. We’ll see how it goes.
