I think my __38__ started when I was at Palomar College. At first, I just wanted to get my __39__ and be left alone. I thought I was smarter than everyone else, so I hardly ever __40__ to anyone in my classes. By the end of my first semester, I was really __41__. It seemed as if everyone but me had made friends and was having fun. So I tried a(n) __42__. I started asking people around me how they were doing, and if they were having trouble I __43__ to help. That was really a big __44__ for me. By the end of the year, I had several new friends, and two of __45__ are still my best friends today.
A bigger cause of my new __46__， however, came when I took a part－time job at Vista Nursing Home.
