The Value of A Community

Being part of a community is more than just having friends to hangout with when you are bored. It’s more than who you work with or study with at school. A community is the people who you connect with and they connect with you.

When you are in a true community, you have someone who knows you. If you need support, you will have the support. If you need fun then you can have fun. The value of a community is that is shapes to what each person needs.

The people doing the student blog challenge have helped to make a community between students from all around the world. With a worldwide close connection between students, anything can be accomplished, anywhere!

Yo soy el Alejandro Sultana

Hola. Bonjour. Bougu.  Aaand that’s the extent of my foreign greetings.

So, I’m Alex, short for , you guessed it Bartholomew (not really, that was a joke, queue the laughing.)

Since this is a blog, I’m not going to go in depth about every nook and cranny of my life, but I’ll tell you the things I’m most proud of.

When I was 11, I joined the American Football league to play football. This may not be very astonishing to some, but if you knew me then you would know I wasn’t very bulky. I only weighed 70 pounds at the time and it was huge for me. The football helped me focus on a routine in life and made my week easier. My grades actually went up when I joined football to.

The same year of football, I completed my first triathlon, swimming 1000 yard, then biking 10 miles, then running 5 miles. This really made me feel good and I continued to run triathlons and play football.

A year later, this is a more tragic event, I was out with my friends and broke my arm. It was really hard to work in school and navigate normal life at home. It really made me respect armless people. I also missed the football season and that was very annoying hearing about the season but not being able to play.

And my latest achievement, a year after I broke my arm, I was accepted into Junior Honor Society. Though I later moved from America, I am extremely proud that I was invited in, even though I didn’t get the chance to actually be in Junior Honor Society. I don’t know what my future will look regarding Honor Society, but I hope that soon I can move back to America and finish school there.
